Question 7: When do you think this will end? What challenges are still ahead? What will be different? What will be better?
I hope it ends soon but I’m not hopeful about that. I don’t think our “passed” normal will ever be the same. I really don’t see anything will be better except maybe we will be more prepared in the future.

Question 8: Is there anything else that you would like to say about the COVID-19 pandemic?
My hope is that it will make families closer. I hope people see how quickly life can change and practise more compassion and kindness to others.
