Very laugh-inducing, Iza. I like your humorous and practical approach. I can't believe people are actually drinking bleach! Yecccchhh!!!! Drinking booze would be much more therapeutic. I love the picture. "Stop reading sad news" is probably the best advice when staying home, praying, laughing, not panicking, and squirting your bum with water.

Comment from Rosemary Everson1
I like your list. I pray that soon things will get better. Did you say you lived in Canada? We are good to go here yet. But we stay in our house, keep ourselves safe, which means keeping other people safe.

Yes, I am in Canada and in a few days it jumped to 700 infected, is so scary.

It's increasing here every day, too. I sure hope they will find a cure. Prayers for your country, too.

Comment from Katherine M. (k-11)
This is very clever, and provides an imaginative approach to the flash fibtion contest (except that I see no fiction here!). My favourite instruction is number three. It highlights how we have all become "over-complicated" and should (if it were actually even necessary) look for simpler solutions to problems.

Comment from Monica Chaddick
Love the artwork - hilarious! I'm glad you didn't drink the bleach. As for the toilet paper, I bet a lot of people are going to wish they had saved all that junk mail they throw away.

You know they started to buy the kitty litter too
Comment from BethShelby
All good advice. I'm not going to panic but I don't enjoy what I'm seeing. I went to a favorite restaurant today to find it practically empty when I've always had to wait to even get a seat. The waitress said they were having a meeting today to see if they could afford to stay open another day. I'm concerned about those who live from one paycheck to the next. It doesn't feel like things will go back to the way they were. Things changed after 9/11 and I think they may again.

Comment from Pam (respa)
-Good image, and
well written satire, Iza.
-I like how you organize
your thoughts with
the overview and then
commentary. It does seem
like everyone is an expert.
-You provide a tongue
and cheek list of do's and don'ts.
-I think humor goes a long
way to ease the media hype.
-Good luck in the contest.

Comment from Robert Zimmerman
Hey Iza. At least you have a plan. Many people don't have one and are not sure what to do. Your picture is very funny. One Corona is taking on a case of Heineken.
Good job and good luck in the contest.

I enjoyed your contest entry. Good job with an important topic that you expressed your thoughts/feelings well. Drinking bleach can kill you I believe. Thanks for sharing. I like the last three reasons. Best wishes. Respectfully, Jan

I have no intention of panicking, I've seen the dust ups in the supermarket aisles, which is lowering the standards of human dignity to banal levels, beautifully written Iza, and well said, blessings, Roy
