    Try to stay cool. There is a lot of panic going on which triggers more panic. Anyone who becomes infected despite all protective measures, in general has a 99% chance of survival.

    Notable Coronavirus Victims

    I think the experts are trying to workout the best way to handle the virus. I wonder if it is the unpredictability of the virus that is creating so much anxiety. Human minds are good at predicting the worst. I know research shows that people tend to overestimate how terribly they’ll be affected by negative events and underestimate how well they’ll handle and adjust to difficult situations. Be aware that you are probably more resilient than you think. Take care everyone!
