It's so easy to get complacent about these health issues, especially when we're advised to take precautions that disrupt our normal daily regimes. But, as you rightfully say in your very caring post, it's equally important to think about each other and translate informed media advice into action. Thanks for conveying this in a very readable way without once appearing to dictate. Take care Debbie

    I am so proud that you read this story about COVID-19, I am getting this year's shot over the weekend. A family member wears a mask ALL of the time.
    Thanks for the five stars and taking the time to read this story.

Thanks for sharing this post about the pandemic we are facing worldwide.

I pray we can all come together and look past all of these conspiracy theories and allow the scientists, by the grace of God, to find a cure, as they have in the past, and continue to do so.


Meantime, we should respect one another and do what is needed to keep safe by social distancing and wearing a mask. I have taken the vaccine and continue to wear the mask.

Thanks for sharing this excellent post.

Blessings...Portia

    I appreicate you taking the time to review my story about the pandemic. I have had my shots but I am still skeptical and I wear a mask. Sometimes I feel out of place in a place because it is only a few of us with masks on.
    Thanks for the five stars.

    Keep wearing your mask, no matter what; they help save lives.

This is a good summary of what COVID-20 means to us all in our daily lives. Your allusion to the whole village is right on target. We all need to act together if we are to beat this scourge.

I like how you covered the situation very clearly and succinctly. I hope your area is relatively safe. Our numbers have started to climb up again. Thankful that we can use technology to keep in touch with loved ones and meet for church.

This is a great and interesting read. Thank you for sharing. We all must try
to adjust to the new normal. We must protect ourselves with a mask and
social distance.

    Yes, even now, in the green we still have to wear masks.

Life goes on, pandemic or not, but it seems somehow that we forgot what before was? Now are scared of our own shadows, and any sneeze it gets us in panic attack. Thank you for sharing and good luck with your writings.

Good, compact, down-to-earth facts about the Covid-19 pandemic. And yes, so completely logical: Keep social distancing as a habit for the time being. Also, the wearing of a mask, don't see it as an inconvenience. See it as a useful tool to prevent this virus from further spreading. Wash your hands with regularity. There are several countries already where they have proven that these measures were having the desired effect. The curve is down.

    We are in the green but we still have wear our masks. In the long run, it is worth it. You drive down the street and you look over, there is someone with a mask it. It is like putting a coat on.

I am glad you explained precede-proceed. You explain other terms nicely, too. I like that you entered this as a war story because it truly is a war. My guess is you couldn't find a picture with masks, but your prose says it all.

    Yes, you are right, I couldn't find a mask or a picture of the coronavirus I wanted to use. I heard one of the men that came on TV to give us a daily update use that word.
    We are on yellow but we still have a long way to go. You stay safe too.

Well written throughout its Coronavirus narrative story lined content which all the world is engaged fighting it. You are right but the real problem with the areas' intensity is a very complex one like Campania in Southern Italy 367people per square mile. Our governor Mr. Vincenzo De Luca has decided to close completely the region boarders to all the other regions and he was right. We have had a low rate of deaths. Now we are cautiously going through our second phase which is very delicate,too. I haven't gone out for two months so not only you must learn and know well how to behave but most of the time you must pay attention to those who refuse to accept the new behaving rules because these people are real dangerous for our health. Their stupidity cause death everywhere they go!

    I enjoyed reading what someone else thinks about the coronavirus and this is real treat because it is from the view of a person who lives in another country. It is just great how countries can be on one accord on somethings. My county where I live in, is going into yellow this Friday. Thank you.
