This "Pandemic" we are all dealing with is creating some crazy times for us all.
The World Health Organization has created many fact pages like this one here for people to understand how the Covid-19 actually gets transmitted, how to prevent getting it, and who it affects the most. I appreciate these fact-based images a lot! It seems all the sensationalizing on social media and on the news is making the world become outrageously out-of-touch on how virus's work. Virus's need an opening in your body to get in. Skin to skin contact won't let in the virus until you put your hand to your face and it goes through a hole into your body. That's it.
Seeing shelves empty in stores, seeing people selling toilet paper online for much more than the normal cost, and people becoming racist towards Chinese people has all got to STOP. It's all fear-mongering. It's times like these that we all need to care for each other more. Let's help the elderly or those who are more susceptible to the virus. Let's pick up some extra food and supplies to make a care package and deliver it to those who need a little extra help. Let's all try to smile a little more, and be more gentle towards one another. You don't know who might be going through a really hard time right now.
I'd like to think that people are good for the most part. That most of us will do the right thing when the time is right. Well people... the time is now. Be good to each other, and stay safe out there.
