The Sun Is Still Rising
Thursday, March 12th, 2020 Life & HealthI don’t know about you, but I am sick of COVID-19, commonly called the Coronavirus. I know that is different than being sick FROM the Coronavirus, but I am weary from the onslaught of information and panic related to the disease.
A lot of us will never get this particular virus; but we will make ourselves sick worrying about it in the process.
Just last night we learned that all travel from (non-UK) Europe is being banned. March Madness will go on without the fans. The NBA has suspended play.
Classes are going virtual. St. Patrick’s Day festivities are being cancelled all over the world. And this mornings stock futures tell me my retirement will probably be moved out a couple more years later today.
In my travels last week, I saw people wearing masks and gloves. Those gloves, touching the same germy things in the airport as everyone’s bare hands, offer zero protection once the wearer touches their face (something I saw plenty of).
