During this quarantine I have spent a lot of time with my family. My brother and I always play games together and hang out since we can’t see anyone else. We can’t really go anywhere so we have to find fun things to do at home. I enjoy spending time with my family and hanging out with my brothers. My dad is an essential worker so he isn’t home a lot but the rest of us are. We are making the best out of the situation.

I created this story for a school project and I think its very good. my teacher liked it and so did my mom.
*From "Creator" field:*
The sun a shooting star,
Shining so brightly.
The moon a bed,
For the man who started it all.
But why?
Why does the sun shine?
Why do the stars gleam their stunning light?
Why do we deserve it?
Why does he do this?
He wakes up just as you,
He watches and admires.
He fulfills our desires,
But what did we do to deserve it?

While taking my senior pictures in October of 2019, I didn't see any of this coming. I only saw a stage and a whole crowd of people, graduation, at the end of the tunnel. The last few months of senior year are supposed to be crazy epic! The last few months of senior year in 2020 are being spent in rooms and at work if you even have a job still. it's alright though because this pandemic is deadly so it's okay that I can't go to grad parties or even graduation if it means this goes away faster. #cshsecon

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.

I won’t name the town I was in due to operational security concerns but I arrived on 9 March 2020 to a small rural community on the U.S. side of the U.S./Mexican border. I had arrived in support of one of those governmental three-letter agencies and would be spending the next few weeks in the town. For a small town it had all the services necessary to fulfill the needs of myself and my coworkers; restaurants, grocery stores, even a shopping mall. Surrounded by farms, the town was predominately blue-collar and relied heavily on cross-border migrants to assist in the fields. Spanish was the dominant language and a great opportunity for me to recall my ad hoc lessons from junior high classmates while growing up in Long Beach, California. The gig was temporary but would be a new experience in a new location. I was excited.
The first night in town I enjoyed a meal at a nearby Famous Daves BBQ restaurant with my coworkers. As we ate our BBQ sandwiches finished off with draught beer we couldn’t help but notice the concerns of news anchors on a nearby television over COVID’s proliferation in the U.S. Each day from that point on the restrictions grew. First barber shops, nail salons, and other non-essential businesses. Then restaurants. A week later the Famous Daves was closed for dine-in. Our world was collapsing. In a matter of a week the town’s fragile economy had come to a screeching halt.
Nearby was a large shopping mall that I visited during my first few days in town. I bought a replacement wedding ring from the mall’s JCPenny after losing mine prior to the trip. Now the giant behemoth, that monument to 1980s-90s materialism, was closed. Not a soul stirred. A recreational jog around it found a family riding bicycles in the parking lot. Aside from a few lawn care workers pruning shrubs and palms it was a ghost town. I thought of the courteous saleswoman who helped me pick out the replacement ring; how was she fairing, what was her income like, what was her struggle like now? As these thoughts permeated my mind I couldn’t help but be thankful that I was still in a job that paid. I said a quick prayer for her. Could I help? The mall was locked tight, no way to find out who she was.
In just a few weeks of living in this small town during this time of COVID and observing human responses and governmental orders related to the pandemic I was shocked to learn how fragile an economy can be. What did this look like for the future of businesses? Could that large mall ever open again or was it relegated to history, to serve as a relic or memorial to past human behaviors. Amazon had become king. One’s only hope was to live near an Amazon packing plant or own a business that was sub-contracted by the online giant. The farms continued to produce, the trucks continued to drive, but there was a hole in this once tight-knit small town along the border.

The new rule that Andrew Cuomo released makes everyone wear masks everywhere they go. He made this a rule so we can try to prevent the spread of Covid 19 even more. Although you need to wear masks not everyone has access to them because they are sold out at many places and some cant afford to buy them. Also many healthcare workers need them because they are running out and cant find them anywhere. SInce this is a big problem New York State gave 7 million more masks across New York.

Photos of my partner and I picking up litter in our Taylors, SC neighborhood during our walk. We wear masks to go out and walk in the neighborhood no matter what but add gloves if we plan to pick up litter.
It's hard to feel useful or any sense of control during this time. Doing this while we get out for a little exercise gives us a small feeling of control over our immediate environment and a sense that we are doing something positive for ourselves and our neighbors. It feels better than staying entirely isolated and feeling helpless in the face of all of this fear, grief and loss.

Two screenshots telling a story about the House of Raeford chicken processing plant less than a mile from my home and a larger story about the failure of the US infrastructure at this time.
About 2 weeks ago we began to hear rumors that the meat supply was likely to be affected by the pandemic, workers were becoming sick in huge numbers and the processing plants were closing down. At the same time many of them were currently overloaded with products that they could not sell to restaurants and schools. 10 days ago the processing plant down the road held a huge sale on their overstock meat. Several thousand people lined up in their cars for miles down the road. They hung out in the parking lots of other businesses and moved in and out of them while waiting in the line. Very few people were masked ; none of the plant employees were masked.
A few days after the sale President Trump declared meat packing plants essential for the economy and required them to stay open tho he provided no funds for PPE for workers nor any real guidelines on how to keep them safe.
7 days after the huge sale at the House of Raeford plant they reported positive cases amongst their workers. They refuse to say how many people are infected out of privacy concerns.
At every step of the way the people involved should have been able to trust the government to keep us safe and we have not been able to. We should have been able to trust in our food supply or at least in the information we received about it so we didn't feel the need to panic buy food. The workers should have been protected from the start and definitely after they were ordered to work. We should be able to know what information to trust to make informed decisions regarding our lives and the lives of our fellow citizens. The US government is spectacularly failing to provide the least feeling of stability at this time.

Beyond the ERs, ORs, and ICUs, there is another region of the hospital that is directly impacted by the pandemic- the lab. As a medical technologist working in clinical microbiology, I, along with my colleagues, have been processing hundreds of patient specimens and conducting various SARS-CoV-2 PCR tests 24/7 to aid in the diagnosis of COVID-19. At one point, during the beginning of the NYC outbreak, we were processing samples from all five boroughs, Westchester, and the lower Hudson Valley. We were the first human beings to view those results as they came out of the machine and saw the patterns unfold before everyone else. It is an eerie feeling to be working in a quiet lab when you feel this immense gravity of the vast storm looming overhead- knowing that every sample you process has a story and a life behind it and that your results are the thunder that reverberates beyond your four walls and out into the world itself- echoes that strike like lightning, illuminating the thin line between life and death.

I would love to tell a short story of how it is going in Czech republic during quarantine 2020, being a russian gringo and a student.
I'm 23 years old, all my friends in the same age as well. Some of us used to work, some are still studying. When in Czechia started quarantine, it was only 3 or 4 people with Covid. Everybody agreed that quarantine started early enough, and that was a good thing. By the way, there was no panic on the streets or in supermarkets. It seemed like czechs already were prepared. Schools closed immediately , and they're closed still. Every teacher is in contact and fully understands, that this stress makes us, students, less productive. But still doing homework is almost impossible.
My friends with asian look were discriminated a little, but we totally understood that it's just for a while, that it's normal fear, I was afraid of everybody walking by me on the streets or making noise like coughing. We are waiting for a normal life. Waiting and pretending, that we still have this life. We work out, cook, draw, make photosets, play ukulele and have a good time with a little taste of fear in the mouth.
Friends that used to work, don't have any chance to come back to there work. It's kinda stressful, cause who will help us, non-czech and non-adult?
Of course, I can say, that the problem should be solved by Czech state, that they should help us, or maybe at least I should be angry. But honestly, I'm greatful for being here, with careful Czechs and my friends, for being studying from home and having computer from school (yes, they helped with this).
For starting finely my small blog about art. And for saving my favourite small coffee shop that is still working and making damn good coffee.

This meme resonated with me because it's very true, and it speaks volumes. The reaction of the time traveler would be exactly like the meme because 2020 seems like a terrible year. There are a lot of bad things about it outside of coronavirus, but the coronavirus is the main problem of 2020. I thought it was weird when I realized we were living in history right now, we are on lockdown and I had never imagined anything like this before. This year will be remembered forever, because I guarantee the world won't be the same for a while after this, possibly never the same again. #CSUS #HIST15H

This meme was funny to me because it shows the extremes that people are willing to go to, in order to get things like hand sanitizer during this time. This relates to my life because whenever I've gone to the store for groceries, I see signs in the front saying "no hand sanitizer, no sanitization wipes, no toilet paper, etc." or "limit 1 hand sanitizer per person". I didn't know it would get that crazy, but I guess Pennywise has a new way to get kids to come into the sewers with him in 2020. #CSUS #HIST15H

The image depicts the creation of Pandemic Monopoly by a Hobart resident. The homemade board game uses toilet paper as currency, referring to the toilet paper shortage seen across Tasmanian supermarkets. The board game presents players with the opportunity to 'own' key Hobart locations. However, instead of mortgage, houses and hotels, the game allows players to buy hospitals and clinics to place on the properties. Centrelink, the Australian governments social security service, features heavily on the board game, indicating the rise in unemployment due to the pandemic. Whilst being used for comical purposes, the game also critiques the Tasmanian governments early handling of Covid-19 crisis via a chance card, which states "You have a fever, dry cough and Pneumonia to boot but despite having all of the symptoms, you haven't knowingly come into contact with a known carried so they won't test you for Covid-19. The Royal Hobart Hospital sends you home. Get out of iso [isolation] free." This refers to the Tasmanian government in early stages of the Covid-19 pandemic refusing to test individuals who had not been in contact with a known case, or had not left the country.

“Indigenous Peoples are no strangers to disease and disaster. Through generations, Indigenous Peoples have established responses and coping mechanisms – grounded in traditional knowledge, customs and practices – to different circumstances affecting their communities. These are all founded on one fundamental principle: to ensure that the community survives. A common response across Indigenous communities is that of closing-off the community to all – this means no one can enter the community until deemed safe. Such community closures are done for different reasons. In the Cordillera, Philippines such practice is regularly observed during the agricultural cycle. Before or after the fields are ready for planting and harvesting, the community declares ubaya/tengaw which basically means everyone stays at home, no hard labor is to be done by anyone. This is a time for the community and the earth to rest and typically lasts a day or two.” #IndigenousStories

These village shut-downs were announced in conjunction with the revival of the ancient ritual called, “Kroh Yee” (or village closure). It was found that this ritual was used seventy years ago when there was an outbreak of cholera. Local knowledge holders believe that there would be enough food for annual consumption if a pandemic occurs and the village needs to be blockaded, but the town’s people may run away to the forest for their survival.” #IndigenousStories
