Stay home!

Tue., March 31, 2020

I am shocked at how many people are going about their daily lives as if we aren’t faced with a deadly pandemic. People say not to panic, but if we don’t take this seriously we will be wishing we panicked a lot sooner. Hospitals are already being swamped.

You are putting your own life, the lives of your loved ones, and everyone you have contact with, in jeopardy. Please everyone, stay home!!!
