Title:
Love in the Time of Coronavirus
Answer 1 - Work/School:
I lost my job at a local restaurant due to this pandemic.
Answer 2 - At Home:
I'm a Canadian citizen married to an Italian citizen. Our home is in Italy, we came back to Canada at the end of December 2019 to spend some time with family, and not knowing what the future had in store for us. On Feb 13th, 2020, my husband flew back to Italy for a scheduled appointment, shortly thereafter most airlines stopped flying. I'm still in Canada and my husband in Italy, and the only thing keeping me going is knowing that he is healthy as are all of my family members. I just wish my husband and I could have gone though this pandemic together as he's alone in Italy, and I'm living with my mom in Canada.
Answer 3 - Concerns:
That someone I care for will succumb to this virus.
Answer 4 - Infected?:
Personally, I do not know anyone that has contracted the virus.
Answer 5 - Media Coverage:
I think that the media is doing an okay job. A lot of their article titles are misleading or giving off a sense of false hope.
Answer 6 - Leadership:
I believe that our local Canadian leaders are doing a decent job. I think Ford is doing an amazing job at being transparent to his citizens.
Answer 7 - End?:
I have no idea when this will send and wouldn't want to speculate, but our world that we once knew will be no longer.
Answer 8 - Thoughts:
My hope is that the world comes out of this kinder, gentler and wiser than before.
