How is the coronavirus pandemic affecting your life right now? Tell us about your experiences, feelings, and thoughts.
My mom and I went to CVS the other day, and we went into the cards aisle looking for picture frames or things related to arts and crafts. We were shocked when we saw how many cards were gone. As you can see, on the righthand side of the photo almost all of the 'Care and Concern' cards were gone, completely cleared out. When my mom saw it she gasped and put her hand to her mask. It was shocking. Our minds immediately jumped to the thought of so many people having the virus that the CVS almost ran out of cards. ... the implication of all of those cards being gone definitely makes you think.

Many of us have experienced restrictions on movement and social contact during the pandemic. Talk about any restrictions that have especially affected you.
So far, I’m the designated family “forager”. Being able to go out in public through the entire pandemic so far has shown me how many people are starting to slack off on wearing masks and maintaining social distancing. I have been having virtual doctor appointments. Better than nothing, but I do need to get back is to see multiple healthcare providers. My spouse lost her older sister to Covid-19. She did have several pre-existing conditions and live in one of the “hotspot” cities. I truly believe that the pandemic is going to have an increase in patients and will overload more regions around the world.
