How is the coronavirus pandemic affecting your life right now? Tell us about your experiences, feelings, and thoughts.
It is the first time we come back to nyc since our last visit on March 2020… When we visited then I was the only soul wearing a mask in Nyc… now a lot of people use it. We are happy to be able to go out and enjoy a trip like this. Our daughter is staying in NYC for a month, and sharing an apartment w 3 girls… one came back yesterday from a trip to Miami and very soon she reported she tested positive… so mi daughter went to get tested, thank god she is negative and she began using a mask as if it was a part of her body, she wears it constantly. Mi brother who lives in Colombia w his wife and 3 adult sons has lived trough a very difficult week… A. tested positive, he passed it to P., and finally M. got it… so 3 out of 5 relatives got infected…after months and months of confinement. Such a difficult time in Colombia simply because the vaccines are so slowly being offered to the general public. I regret I dis not invite the family to come over to get vaccinated.

Think about the people closest to you. Tell us about how the coronavirus has affected them, and their life.
My roommate has been going to work in construction, where a majority of his coworkers are conservatives and think that COVID is either a hoax, or overblown. His foreman has cancer, and still refuses to take precautions. He goes to work wearing a mask like this, and a faceshield, every day. Since he does so, he's been harassed and referenced as an "Antifa terrorist" for it. He just doesn't want to die, and doesn't want to put me at greater risk, while paying the bills. It's caused a lot of stress, and I worry for his sake.
