Informative speech on EFFECTS OF PANDEMIC

****PLEASE ASK IF ANY QUESTIONS AND MAKE SURE YOU READ AND UNDERSTAND THE DIRECTIONS*******

At least four different credible sources of information are required.  Sources refer to the people or places where you get your information for your speech, such as books, articles, websites, documentaries, interviews with people credible on your topic, etc

Supporting material refers to statistics, specific instances, narratives, scenarios, quotations, and paraphrases used to support the points you are trying to make.  Please note the following two requirements in this regard:  You are required to provide strong support for all main points.
