It's pretty scary to know there are airborne viruses out there with no treatment in 2020. In an age where people are constantly on the move and in close quarters, it's no wonder a pandemic has been declared. I take warnings seriously, but there's currently no panic in my small town. I admit this place is the epitome of defiant ignorance, so I don't know if the lack of concern is a good thing or not. I just hope everyone will do the right thing and take proper precautions. Even if you're healthy, people around you are not, and public irresponsibility can - and does - kill vulnerable people.
I'm among the high risk crowd, but I feel like I'm at a strange advantage, being unemployed and living rural in a fairly isolated lifestyle already. I don't feel trapped at the moment. I went to the grocery store today, where it was business as usual. There's plenty of water and TP to go around here. I realize that is not the case elsewhere, and I feel for those who are being affected by the chaos.
So anyway, I'm just saying I'm fine for now. Let's think about everyone who is forced to remain exposed to this danger in their jobs and family lives. I'm sending my best wishes.
