I struggle with natural flow in foreign languages too. I think we all do until we have practised enough. Fine to say currently, though native speakers might say 'just now' as an alternative.

Hi Hellen, Your text was easy to understand and has only a few small errors. Good job!

It is perfectly correct to use "currently" as you did in your text. Another, less formal, option in American English would be to use "right now" instead of currently.

By the way, it is very common for Brazilians to say "I have a doubt" in English because they are translating from "Tenho uma dúvida". In this situation, most native English speakers would say "I have a question".

Bons estudos!

Hello Hellen! That's a great question if you want to sound more confident and natural, you should listen to a lot of audios of daily conversation because they help a lot. Well... About your question, if I were you I would use "I hope you're safe at home cause this coronavirus pandemic that we're facing is getting serious.", and speak it with confidence, never doubt yourself, this is the first step to become fluent in any language.
