Description (Dublin Core)

Every day when I open my eyes, the first thing I do is open my phone and check my social media. Weibo, a major tool for most Chinese to get the news, shares the tendency of the virus in the first place. As a study abroad student, I got messages from my friends every day to check if I’m okay. I got the message from one of my best friends yesterday to ask if I need some supplies that he can deliver. My parents made a phone call every day to check my status. Every time I got the phone call, I would hear similar words from my parents. For example, stay at home and wash hands frequently. I strictly follow their instruction. I noticed until the day I wrote this journal, the number of people affected in America has reached 570,000. The number may be the reason why everyone is asking me. The number has increased every day, and I saw a big change in the place I live in.

The building I lived in announced that all the delivery no longer can send to the apartment. All the delivery will leave at the front desk. Then, a new announcement came out in the following two days, that there will be someone to send to the doors. In other words, in order to protect everyone, the residences no longer need to go down and pick up their delivery; Instead, a team member will deliver them to the door and wearing masks and gloves. Besides, the elevators only can take four people in time to keep the social distancing. I think all the policies are really responsible and careful to all the residents.

I went to the supermarket this week, as the first time I went out after staying at home for three weeks. I went to H Mart, a Korean supermarket near the place I lived. I was surprised that it also did a really good job of preventing the virus. The market controlled the number entered and lined up all the customers outside. The security will ask all the customers to keep the distance from each other. When I entered the market, and employees gave me a pair of gloves. There is still sufficient food in there. At the checkout, there is a transparency board that isolated the cashiers and customers.

This is what I experience this week and share those in my journal. I hope everyone stays healthy!
