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.

How is the coronavirus pandemic affecting your life right now? Tell us about your experiences, feelings, and thoughts.
Right now my mom has lost a lot of hours at work and is struggling to buy food and pay bills. I am also not able to buy food or pay bills until I find another job and so I'm trying to see if my university could help me or my family in any way. I feel extremely depressed not being able to see my family or friends and I'm paranoid of working in close proximity with others even with masks because I've had the virus before and had to be hospitalized.
