Humans of Covid-19 AU: Adam Yip
“At the moment, the news industries are scraping just to find stuff! There isn’t much happening. A lot of my shifts have been ‘Go down to Bondi and see if there’s social distancing happening’, which isn’t really an inventive role, and I stand there scratching my head. I wonder when people will stop wanting to see those images. On the other hand, if we didn’t have the media the pandemic could have been a lot worse, they scared a lot of people into staying home (but also scared a lot of people into panic buying). I’d like to think that next pandemic we have, because there will certainly be more, the government will be more active in the beginning, and have everything ready to go. Also, I hope that people will stop panic buying and being so selfish. The scenes of people fighting over toilet paper are horrible. I’m lucky to be in photojournalism though because a lot of other freelance photographers are really suffering at the moment. I used to do lots of portrait shots, but haven’t done one in a while.” Instagram post on Adam Yip, photojournalist, and his experience during the pandemic, which was created by a psychology student living in Melbourne who was interested to hear about how COVID-19 was impacting on different peoples’ lives. -

Coronavirus causes wave of fake new
The Coronavirus is just a new way for the media to badger President Donald Trump. First when Trump called it the Chinesevirus he was immediately attacked by media and was being portrayed as a racist for saying something that is simply true. Then he was asked many questions about that comment. The media is also claiming that the coronavirus attacks African American more then white people. The media should stop attacking Trump and scaring American citizens with FAKE NEWS. *Date as submitted: 11:16 AM 5/6/2020 -
