Young people! I’m hearing one of three things re: #COVID19:
1) “I’m not in the high risk zone, so I’m good, nothing changes.”
2) “I have an underlying condition so I’m so screwed.”
3) “I am healthy but I am still SUPER anxious about all this.”

If you’re in group 1:
Remember, the greatest risk to you may not be to YOUR body—but it may be THROUGH YOUR body to someone else’s—that would be devastating.
We practice social distancing, great hand hygiene, & vigilance not just to protect ourselves, but folks we love.

If you’re in group 2:
First, you’re not screwed! We’re doing all this to make sure of it.
What CAN you do? The same thing as everyone else (social distancing, great hand hygiene) + stock up on supplies. Don’t buy a ton of TP, do get 2 months of your meds/canned foods.

If you’re in group 3:
This can really mess w/ anxiety, esp if it takes us from our support system.
Check in w/ folks by phone. If you see a mental health provider, see if telehealth is an option.
For me, helping others helps too. So check in/support vulnerable folks.
