As a college student, my academic career continues even this epidemic hits hard. During the first two week of transitioning to the remote learning, I felt lost and everything was out of control. I had to set up a schedule by myself to keep up with all the deadlines and make sure not missing any lecture that could be on the test. It was a complete novel experience for me, because I was so used to running between classes and let the schedule catch me instead of following the fixed schedule. Luckily, all my professors were supportive and are patient in guiding us through all the modules and send out reminders about the deadlines.

For the past 22 years, Indians in Ghana have performed a weekly prayer meeting. Popularly known as the "Vishnu Group", each family used to book a slot a year in advance to conduct this prayer at their house. The gathering consists of nearly 60 people who gathered at the host family's house every week. During this puja, the gathering recites the traditional Vishnu Sahasranamam, Hanuman Chalisa, and prays to Lakshmi and Shiva. The group then proceeds to an hour long bhajan. After this, they proceed to the potluck dinner made up of traditional items.
However, due to COVID-19, the group can no longer meet and have instead shifted their prayers online. The picture shows the prayer area in Mrs Gomati Mohan's house. Garlands are seen decorating the pictures and the host couple is seen performing the traditional aarti. In this new, modern form of praying, each member of the group performs the prayer in their own house and updates the other members in a common WhatsApp group.

My mom took this photo on their flight from Rajiv Gandhi International Airport in Hyderabad to Kotoka International Airport in Ghana, Africa. It looks like people had reduced travelling even before Ghana announced a lockdown. The flight was deserted, and so was the airport. Although the virus hadn’t spread to Ghana at the time, the airport authorities checked the temperature of every disembarked passenger before letting them go.

In 2020, when the Chinese New Year is approaching, a virus broke out in Wuhan that people have never seen before. After the New Year, the entire China began to fight against the outbreak. I feel deeply that in the early stage of the outbreak, there were countless young doctors in China who voluntarily signed up and applied to go to the place where the epidemic was most severe-Wuhan, the hero of the Chinese people, Grandpa Zhong Nanshan, arrived in Wuhan as soon as possible, which made us feel the most united It was during the epidemic that the Chinese people were able to obey the government's command to close the city, close the countryside, and close the community. The people stayed at home and did not go out, so that the epidemic did not spread so quickly. The virus is also under control
Here I want to thank the medical staff who traveled to Wuhan. You risked your life to protect me. You did not choose to back down and avoid, but chose to fight against the virus. You came forward. Many young doctors did not tell themselves Parents are afraid of them. Many attending doctors change their hair from black to white within a month. During this epidemic, many doctors unfortunately contracted the virus during the treatment and did not return to their hometown and died. The epidemic is on the front line. Here, I want to pay tribute to all the medical staff, to the dead medical staff, you have worked hard.
I would also like to thank those who contributed to the epidemic, the staff of the Wuhan "Vulcan Mountain" Hospital and the "Raytheon Mountain" Hospital, you worked hard, you built the hospital in just ten days, it was shocked The speed of the world is the result of your work day and night, and you have worked hard.
In this epidemic, I feel the unity of the Chinese people. Most people, following the government ’s decision, stay at home and do not go out. Songs written by singers to cheer for Wuhan, and painters painted for Wuhan, writers, many people use their own ways to cheer for China and cheer for medical staff. This makes us very moved. There are many entrepreneurs and workers. Both students and teachers donated money for the epidemic, and many large manufacturing companies began to produce masks and disinfectants. Chinese people are cheering for Wuhan in their own way, cheering for medical staff
I would also like to thank other countries that helped China during the epidemic. When the epidemic broke out, many countries assisted China by donating, donating, sending medical teams to China, and refueling China in various ways, although there are Some complained to China, but people from all over the world also cheered for China. Many of our teachers even chose to stand with the Chinese people and stay in China even when the epidemic was serious. People from all countries said that they helped and cheered on China With a "thank you" China's epidemic situation is much better now. China will also try its best to help other countries. Only when we unite will the world be perfect.

In the first few weeks of this pandemic, every grocery store was bustling with no food available and low storage of cleaning supplies. This week, things took a turn for the worse and are kind of creepy. Browsing through the nearest Walmart with my mother, we noticed it was actually extremely quite in the store. When we started paying attention, there was almost noone in the store, the emptiest I have ever seen a Walmart. When we did see someone, they would kind of scurry off in order to keep their distance. Me and my family understand the situation in all but it appears that some people are taking this entire thing way to far as to be afraid to even be seen in public.

The week of April 6th, 2020 – April 12th, 2020 marked over 21 days of
quarantine for myself. Here in Conway, South Carolina, it feels as though life has
taken a hit, but not to the extension that you see in places such as California or New
York. Whether it is people have been lucky here or just not enough testing to
actually confirm the correct number is anybody’s guess. You can still go into a store
such as Wal-Mart and find an overwhelming amount of people at any given time.
Even though Governor McMaster has put on a stay at home order for all nonessential workers, it just doesn’t feel like daily life has slowed down for many. For
myself, the only positive that has come from all of this are the low gas prices, as low
as $1.19 in some places! One of the biggest issues that I have seen is the mental
aspect of the country. The panic, the worry, the fear. Granted it is unprecedented
times, but instead of calm and trying to find positive in this, all over the TV and
media is negativity. In my hometown of Adams, Massachusetts, this virus is
destroying them, but yet when I talk to family members, the lack of action is mind –
blowing to me. My mother works for a dentist office who continues to stay open,
even after her boss recently came back from a cruise. Is it ignorance or greed? I
have struggled with those two topics of this whole situation. It is clear now that the
measures taken at the beginning of the outbreak were not enough. Now the
government handing out money to people to try and keep them afloat is their way of
trying to curb public opinion. What better way to prevent an outcry of the public
than to give them free money to keep their opinions to themselves? For me in this
situation, the real fear in this, is my mind. As someone who has struggled the
majority of my life with addiction and alcoholism, it is a crippling time in the sober
community. On April 15th, it will mark my one year anniversary of being sober.
These last few weeks seem to have tested me more than ever. With the social
gatherings limit, that means all of the meetings I was attending every week are no
longer an option. Being laid off and not being able to go anywhere, you have restless
legs and a restless mind. This past week I have done hours of yard work and home
maintenance just to keep my mind busy and hopefully exhaust me to the point
where I just go to sleep. I am one of the lucky ones, I guess. In the last ten days, I
have had to watch three friends in sobriety, go back out, and lose their lives to the
disease. I know the longer that this pandemic goes on, the more friends I will have
to say goodbye to and you just pray that you stay afloat. There has been good in this
though, there are pop up groups that have created online meetings where you can
facetime in and get to have meetings with people from all over the world. I’m not
sure what this next week holds in store, but just like everyday I pray we see the light
at the end of the tunnel. P.S. I miss sports desperately (this was supposed to be the
Master’s tournament this weekend!).

Today was my dad’s 59th birthday and it was crazy that we couldn’t really celebrate. This
whole Covid19 feels like a bad dream or a scary movie to be honest. It is also Easter and it is
strange that we couldn’t do our typical events and Easter egg hunt for our nephews. It is so tragic
turning on the news and seeing how many people have died from this terrible virus. This whole
experience doesn’t even feel real at times. I feel lucky that my family is still safe, but I worry
about my brother who has to work every single day surrounded by customers. I fear he will get
sick or my sister in law. I am lucky that I have limited contact with people, but my job still
requires me to meet others. It is scary how people have also reacted to this event and hoarded so
much toilet paper and supplies. I am terrified every time I go to the grocery store to get supplies
and food. There is never toilet paper or paper towels. Trying to find certain things such as meat
or cheese or even eggs is close to impossible at my local grocery store. It is insane that there is
not even a bottle of soap or any Lysol to purchase. I miss my nephews and I miss going to
school. I am so lucky compared to so many others, but I am still terrified for the future. This
feels like a scary movie or an episode of Doom’s Day Preppers.
