「夢の国に帰ってきた」ディズニーランド&シー再開(20/07/01) "I'm back in the land of dreams" Disneyland & Sea reopening (07/01/2020)
This is a news regarding how they opened up DisneyLand and DisneySea after four months of closing. In general, everyone seemed very happy to open up and all the staff were following CDC guidelines. Personally I felt a little confused because there are still people suffering from COVID and opening themeparks just did not seem necessary at the moment. HSE, Disney Land, Disney Sea, theme park, preventative measurement 新型コロナウイルスの感染拡大で休園していた東京ディズニーランドとディズニーシーが1日、約4カ月ぶりに営業を再開しました。 再開した東京ディズニーランドとディズニーシーでは入園者を事前に日付指定のチケットを購入した人に限り、以前の半分程度に絞ります。 来園者:「めちゃめちゃうれしいです。4カ月待っていたので・・・涙出ちゃう。4カ月ずっと我慢していたので夢の国に帰ってきたって感じ」「パークに来られるだけでうれしいので、きょうは楽しみたい」 検温などの感染予防対策を行ったうえで、当面は午後8時までの営業となります。 Translation: Tokyo Disneyland and DisneySea, which had been closed due to the spread of the new Coronavirus, reopened for the first time in about four months on the 1st of July. At Tokyo Disneyland and DisneySea, which have been reopened, the number of visitors will be reduced to about half and only for those who purchased a ticket with a specified date in advance. Visitors: "I'm so happy. I've been waiting for 4 months ... I'm crying. I've been patient for 4 months so I feel like I'm back in my dream world." "I'm so happy just to come to the park today. I want to have fun " After taking preventive measures such as temperature measurement, it will be open from 8:00 am to 8:00 pm for the time being. -

the handshake in jeprody
The story I wanted to tell was about something that is so common and frequent that it became extremely awkward and strange for me. This thing was the hand shake. Before covid hand shaking was a norm and everybody did it. It was the universal way to greet people in a polite and also professional way if you're working. But as Covid-19 came into the picture this norm would become altered and even disappear all together possibly. 2020 was going great until a virus in china was discovered and people started to die very fast shortly after. No one knew this mystery virus until a test came out that it was a very dangerous and deadly virus capable of killing people in days. The virus was only found in China but soon spread around the world. I live in america and as soon as this virus hit thing changed. The first thing was to wear a mask 24-7 when in public. Another thing that started to change that no one realized was the common handshake.due to the virus people became more scared to interact with people. This caused people to change their social behavior. One such example was when I was out with my family and friends. We were all going to meet some people and when we arrived I did not realize I went to shake the person's hand. As soon as i did that the person came back with sorry i don't want to shake hands. Then I went to another person and they were different. They were fine but did elbow bump instead of a conventional handshake. This change is greeting people became awkward for me because I had to read the person and if they wanted to handshake or do something else. There were times were i would think they were all right and then they weren't and the greeting looked like some twister baird with my hand flailing around stupidly with no motive. I became embarrassed and didn't shake or greet anyone after that incident. After this event I realized that the handshake kinda just disappeared and people did not want or even think of handshakes. covid-19 changed the social que for meeting someone to glancing at them and saying hi and that it. I can't imagine how awkward this is for businesses. From this experience I realized the hand shake might disappear altogether after covid or be much less the norm. Covid has had the power to restructure how we greet people and socialize by minimizing our interaction with others at just a glance. I hope the hand shake survives but if not the world will be very different without the handshake because it was such a norm in society for lots of years. -

A Twist on Desk Shields
This is the school my 6yo would have been at, if we had stayed in Idaho. One of the teachers got creative with the desk shields and decorated the students' desks to look like cars. The photo shows the students spaced a part wearing marsks and sitting behind their shields. It's so weird to see some schools already embracing in-person learning, when it feels like such a remote reality here in Tempe. -

The empty shelves
The COVID 19 hits the world like a disaster and caught people off guard. As a student, I don't need to go out a lot since all my courses switched to online modality. But there is only one exception, and that is to go out and buy food. Be sure to wear a mask and maintain a social distance every time I go out. Above all, it seems that the strains of the epidemic had spread. If you get to the grocery late, the shelves will be empty. Target and Trader Joe's, two of my most frequent grocery stores I usually go to, best represent this example. The sight of grocery shelves bare of food perhaps makes people’s hearts flurried. -

Kendra's life during covid-19
During the quarantine, I spent a lot of time practicing and making myself better at my sports that I play. I really didn't do the school work online, we had the choice to do the work or not and I decided not to. I practiced at my house, mostly by myself. I was very upset when the virus hit, school got cancelled, a lot of activities got cancelled. I was going to participate in track, but I could not. I couldn't see my friends, I could barely see my family. It was definitely hard but we all got through it. My mom didn't want to leave the house for anything, she went to the store every two weeks. She went as little as possible, trying not to get sick. I did know a few people that actually got the virus and they lived through it. They explained to us that it was very hard and difficult, but they did make it. No one in our family got sick, we used all of the precautions. We wear masks everywhere we go and wash our hands all the time. During school, I never take off my mask, and I always wipe off my hands. -

Peyton's Covid Experience
At first, I didn't think much of it. It wasn't too bad when I found out about it, but the virus was getting progressively worse. As we were leaving school for spring break, I expected to go back to school the following week. That is not what ended up happening. Cases were increasing, but I still wasn't very worried. I mainly focused on it being a risk mostly for older people, but younger people starting catching the virus. I never left my house except to go grocery shopping with my mom. My family didn't really take any precautions, we expected it to not affect us. My mom continued going to work when businesses starting shutting down for the time being. With being around the same people everyday, we didn't worry much. At the time, I was playing competitive volleyball. I still had about five or six tournaments left, but they all got cancelled. We were not able to make up the rest of the season, which was definitely upsetting. There ended up being a big party just outside of the town I lived in, and there were about 300+ people from my school and surrounding schools. It was not too long after restaurants and stores started opening back up along with sports activities. A lot of people ended up receiving the virus, leading to some restaurants to close one again. A lot of people from my school's cheer team had to be quarantined. Sports were once again shut down, waiting until the week before school started to start back up again. I was still involved in a summer league volleyball team, but we took precautions. We sanitized, didn't come in contact with the other team, and the spectators wore masks. It wasn't too much different, but school volleyball is going to be much different. There are a certain amount of people each player can invite, we have to wear masks on the bench (and while playing depending on where we are), and of course, spectators have to social distance and wear masks as well. During school when social distancing of 6 feet is not available, we are required to wear masks. There was an option of doing online school, or going in person. This is a picture of my friends and me during history class. -

New Norms in the Healthcare Environment
As the spread of Covid grew larger and larger, masks and face shields became the new norm at the hospital. New precautions included temperature checks at the entrances, reuse of PPE, and a completely new hospital environment. Whole wings of the hospital previously dedicated to elective surgeries were cleared out preparing for the surge. Patients were not allowed visitors and when they needed to see a friendly face the most, all they were able to see was our eyes. -

Root canal during the pandemic
On April 8, 2020, I had to have a root canal redone. I had been in self-isolation since March 17, and it was unnerving to leave the house to have this procedure done since I have asthma. Catching Covid-19 would not be suitable for me, so having to lay with my mouth wide open for an extended period was not ideal. Unfortunately, the procedure could not wait. When I arrived at the dentist's office, my temperature was checked before I was allowed to exit my car. I wore a cloth mask into the building where I was required to wash my hands before interacting with the staff. Once I was taken to the back, I had to rinse with alcohol-based mouth wash for no less than 30 seconds. During the procedure, the endodontist wore a face shield and mask. Air was circulated over my face and away from both the dental assistant and endodontist towards the open door. The procedure took about an hour since they chose to examine the failing root canal, refill it, and seal the crown all in the same day. Typically this would require two visits, one to check and refill the root canal and one to seal the crown. After the procedure was done, I was allowed to wash my hands before putting my mask back on and then rewash my hands before exiting the office. Once in my car, I used hand sanitizer before driving home. By far, the strangest visit I've had to the dentist, but they made sure to take every precaution they could to keep their patients safe. -

Post Office Safety Signs
Most businesses in Orange, CA closed when the governor first announced the stay at home order in mid-March. One of the businesses to stay open is the post office. It has become all the more important as people try to stay connected and still continue with daily life as best they can. The Post office has a number of safety measures put in place for their customers: signs like the picture above listed in about 8 languages, plexiglass dividers between postal worker and attendant, and signs on the floor to practice social distancing. *Original text in Contributor: Joey Dorion took the photograph -

New Realities
When visiting my mother this weekend, we decided to take a trip to the gas station to get some drinks. My mom is immunocompromised and takes Covid-19 very seriously. She said if I planned on going into the convenience store I had to wear a mask. She keeps masks like this in the glove box as well as hand sanitizer in her car. She puts on the mask and sanitizer before she enters the store, and puts sanitizer on again when she returns home, before she goes inside. -

Being an essential worker
Being an essential worker Covid-19 otherwise known as the Corona Virus, has affected almost every single life in America. I remember when the virus first started nothing really changed for me or my job at the fast food restaurant, chipotle. Then slowly but surely things began to change in my job. At first less and less people were coming in to receive food, and I was given less hours. Then we closed our dine in option as did the entire state of Arizona. Our Governor Doug Ducey then released a stay at home order, but I as a fast food employee was still considered “essential”. What this meant was that I was still allowed to work, but at what cost. For many being allowed to work can be seen as a blessing or a curse. I was still allowed to work despite all the chaos happening in the world. Everyday more people were losing their jobs or just not working, but I, being an “essential” worker was still working. Things continued to change at my job as we were given questions on Covid-19 and are now asked every workday a series of questions to take precautions against Covid-19. We also now wear masks to cover our faces. Working at chipotle or any fast food restaurant is not the same. Covid-19 has changed the way we operate for a safer environment. This can all be seen as a positive turn of events for fast food workers and other essential workers. For we are being allowed to work. Also many companies are being more precautious in the way they handle things. At the end of this global pandemic perhaps all these changes will have been in a positive light. Overall, in my point of view I see this as a disadvantage. On one hand I am very grateful that I am able to work while others cannot, but I see the disadvantages outweigh the good. For example, the hours I received were already cut and I get paid minimum wage. One of my coworkers even jokingly stated he could make more money quitting and filing for unemployment. We are going to work while this pandemic is happening and are at a higher risk of contracting the virus than others. In the end, I do not believe fast food employees should be essential. This is because the pay simply does not account for the risk these workers are taking to serve food. That is why I am profoundly grateful for the real essential workers like doctors and nurses. -

Limiting the Line
Hmart is an asian market that carries a variety of food items popular in many different asian countries. It is one of my favorite grocery stores to shop at. It was also the first grocery store I have been to doing the pandemic that has i.plemented careful procedures for guest whose entering the store. First, the workers outside are keeping close count of how many people are in the store by monitoring the entrance and exit. They are also sanitizing all shopping baskets and carts at the entrance so guest don't have to touch them until after watching then be sanitized, and finally the store is giving plastic gloves to consumers who enter the store and do not have a pair. I also noticed while doing my grocery shopping that every single person in the store had some form of face mask on them, including employees. I know as time goes on more stores will implement similar policies, for now it seems like Hmart is adjusting well to the pandemic and taking the necessary precautions to keep everyone safe. Seeing this just confirmed why Hmart will continue to be my go to store for supplies during the outbreak. -

The Importance of Family
This is a photo of my little sister and I embarking on a 'journey' to the grocery store. Before this strange time, running an errand was something I never gave any thought. It oddly feels like so long ago: I would just grab my car keys and head out the door. Now, I need to take multiple precautionary steps before I go in public. It is still near impossible to wrap my head around the fact that the steps one needs to take (finding something to cover your face, having gloves ready or at least having hand sanitizer accessible) could literally be a matter of life and death. Not to mention, one needs to wipe down all the items that are purchased and brought back home. Now that I calculate my every move, like limiting what I touch, I realize more and more how much I previously took the little things for granted. I miss being around my friends, playing board games and sharing pizza. These are lonely times, and I could only imagine what it is like for those who live alone. I am so lucky to have my family so I don't go totally insane. This time has brought opportunities for us to have long talks that we would not normally have. This stagnant time has allowed us to discuss topics we would not otherwise dive into: topics of faith, philosophy, community, and what it means to be human. #REL101 -

Returning Home in Seattle during the Pandemic
The image was taken when I finally arrived at SeaTac airport in Washington at 11:00 A.M on March 22, 2020. Because my parents scared that Uber drivers are easier to be exposed to the COVID-19 virus and it would be more dangerous for me to sit near them, my mother told me to catch the public train instead. It was definitely the right choice because due to a huge number of infected people in WA, everyone is afraid to take public transportation so it was only me in that entire train's section. To be extremely careful, I also wear a mask, gloves, tie my hair, and cover my head so that I am less exposed myself to the air. -

NJ to SC
Yesterday, I spent hours driving on I-95; I started in NJ and went down the coast. In NJ it is required to wear masks and to 6 feet apart from each other; I was curious to see how strict other states were. When arriving in South Carolina I notice that it was a different atmosphere than in NJ. People were living there everyday lives, some taking the precautions need while others were not. In NJ it is spring, and where I live it has not stopped raining or been over 50 degrees for weeks. I noticed that I had different emotions living in South Carolina for 2 days then in NJ for the past 7 weeks. I wish I could have stayed there and laid in the sun for hours. Hopefully the rain will stop and the sun will come, I think everyone up here will benefit from it. -
