Talk about what is most upsetting or scaring you right now about the coronavirus pandemic.
What scares me most is seeing the utter chaos in the US where I have all my close family and so many friends How can I not worry for them? Here, the situation is bad, too--yet, I don't feel the despair that I do when I think about the USA. At least here there is some semblance of a desire for control and people are not so divided. When I hear the selfish, ignorant and mocking rhetoric coming from Trump and his supporters it makes my blood boil, thinking that their recklessness is putting so many people I love in even greater danger.
