It’s annoying that we’re forced to change our plans. But “better safe than sorry” and “prevention is better than cure.” Young ones may have a great immune system, but think of the kids and the oldies we meet when we go home, they’re too fragile. So I hope we at least stay home, go Netflix and Chill, and always wash your hands!
