The world has been uncertain for a few months. A little over three weeks ago, I was lucky that I started working from home. The government was extremely slow to react to this virus even though they had months of lead time. As a result, the United States has become number one in COVID-19 cases. As of today, we are at over 215,000 cases with 5,000 deaths. Most of these cases are from my home state of New York. I currently live in Massachusetts but I have family and friends all over New York City.
If you haven’t already started, please stay home. It’s the best course of action to flatten the curve. For more information on what “flattening the curve” means, check out this video:
For more guidance about what to do, the CDC website has what you need: https://www.cdc.gov/coronavirus/2019-ncov/
Although every place should have a “stay at home” order, some don’t. To see what your state is doing, visit https://www.dri.org/about/coronavirus-resources/state-stay-at-home-shelter-in-place-orders
You do not want to be another statistic or be responsible for passing on the virus to others. The Coronavirus pandemic is serious and should be taken seriously.
Stay safe everyone!
