I know as much information as the next person on this virus but I do know the world has drastically changed.
I cant tell you that this will be over in a week or that its just media panic, or that it is the new world orders first step to take control of the population.
I can tell you the world has changed, as I walk or drive around my empty town one thing is clear most of the population has caved to fear and are ready to give up the right to freely assemble.
I can tell you now is the time to join together and forget our political and demographic differences and be vigilant and caring towards others.
Many people have lost jobs, are scared and some may not even have basic essentials to get by because of panic buying by others. If you have essentials or a surplus of an item that could help others ask your family and next door neighbors if they are okay or need anything.
Don’t forget how to barter for goods, I’m not saying it may get to this point but we should all be prepared and ready to trade goods amount each other for other goods in case big banks start going out of business.
Stay local when shopping, local business are dying my significant others business closed the doors the other day, so when you order your food or go try to buy some necessities please check your local markets and shops, ask that hunter down the road first, I know this is a hard thing to do when everything seems to be flying off the selves but we need to support each-other and our community's.
Know panic buying should die down, as states and countries make restrictions on amount of goods per purchase to keep selves stocked and as others realize the selves are being restocked daily and not out of products others will be less inclined to buy everything thinking they wont have anything. On that same note nothing is wrong with a few extra can goods and fozen juices but dont go crazy some stores wont be taking returns.
Don't let fear lead your life, we only have one for sure to hide away and fear contact by others because you may get sick is something I'd never think was possible we risk our life everyday with ever new contact and interaction we take part in, this is before any virus so maybe social distance is good when people are sick just like any other spreading virus or disease but saying hello and hows your day can really bring a smile in these times.
I truly do hope that everyone is well and making through these hard times. We need to stand together now more than ever to support each other.
