COMPOSING AN INTRODUCTION AND
CONCLUSION
• The introduction must attract the attention of the reader, precisely,
we can open up the speech by providing the death toll showing how
life threatening the virus is or by considering it the most dangerous
one of the last 100 years which is arguably true

• The conclusion is meant to sum up the whole thing. We can choose to

conclude it in a certain way. In order to prevent infliction of fear and
panic it would be suitable to end it on a positive manner spreading
hope and encouragement while still remaining realistic and putting an
emphasis on the measures that must be taken.
