I haven’t been sick since 2004 and everything has been the same/Good for me. I still have to pay rent, work etc. Why is everything in a panic when this virus is easier to get rid of then a common cold.
The corona virus is running everything, I got sent home from college now Im gaining a whole lot of weight and I do t need that. Its stopping me from having fun Also we dont even have a cure
When will this all be over. Im cooped up in the house with my children and Im ready to leave. The senior citizens program at the youth employment center would help a lot right now.
I work at night. I stay home dont go out side unless I have to. I take my dog for a walk and enjoy life at home. I spend time with family and friends they come by and see me. I buy paper towels and tissue paper to give to the elderly people that dont have or cant go get it.
People are staying in side, taking correct safety procedures. It’s not as overwhelming because I can get off work and still provide for my family.
Coronavirus has truly been a demonic nightmare, not only to the community but for the nation. I have friends who has recently had his father pass away from this man made die-zeez Disease it has made every skeptical, why should we concern about the air we breath when you can’t get NATURAL air anywhere else. The world is trippen. But god isn’t, may he bless you and have mercy.
