Midst of COVID-19

The very thought of the corona virus epidemic consuming all of humanity is terrifying, and I understand that all this precaution is necessary but I cannot believe how greatly this illness is affecting the world. There is still a large percentage of the world that is suffering with COVID-19, so, at all cost, society must take all sorts of measures towards those who are vulnerable towards this disease. The pattern of deaths from this illness became noticeable with elderly people and people who already have health problems prior. Many events, churches, and schools are cancelled for the benefit of our safety, yet this change is not easy for many people. Stores are closing and the government advises people to stay at home for we are in a public health emergency. Various of families need to take extra support when child care is not available and kids need to learn from home. Multiple of people are becoming laid off from their jobs and having a hard time financially, which brings even greater tension towards our community. But, I believe that there is still so much positive aspects in this situation people would notice.
