__________________

I'll give a small run-down of my family and how they're handling it:

Me: Cancer

Since the pandemic started, I've been wearing gloves and a mask at work. I check the news and updated Coronavirus cases maybe once or twice a month. Other than work I stay at home, and avoid crowds of people in public places. I do go out to get non-essentials though, lol.

Sibling: Leo

He works remotely at home, doesn't bring a mask at all when he's going out, but he only goes out for walks for the most part. Rarely goings to gatherings or invites people over.

Mom: Scorpio

The biggest clean freak in the household, also wears gloves and a mask at work. Never goes anywhere without them. Only goes out to buy essentials, and never invites others over. Ghosts over the news about COVID 24/7. Is very frustrated with father which will be explained below ...

Dad: Aquarius

Hasn't changed his habits at all since the pandemic started. Brings a mask only because some public places will enforce it, otherwise he won't wear it. Always going out to social gatherings with family at least 2 times a week. Always invites one relative over to his house. Also he smokes a sh!t-ton, and NEVER covers his mouth or turns his head away when he coughs or sneezes. This includes when he's cooking and washing dishes ...

I dint believe in this shit that’s why we just went to FL as soon as they LET us and we are planning another trip.

We are Gem and Aries and my bf is so bad! He just suffering from the fact they somebody tells him what to DO this hating local government with passion!

My Mom Cancer is 75 and clean freak - she is cleaning and driving g wheee we she needs to go without thinking twice about it.

My Libra child in healthcare so she is freaking out a bit about us traveling but all and all she doesn’t show signs of nervousness.

I really don’t know people who are paranoid and locked up. Everybody in my emmediate neighborhood unmasked and walking parks with kids but we are all Republicans here. So FUCK PARANOYA!


This is why non-Americans living outside the country like me are terrified of the US now, lol.

It's actually because of people like her I'm afraid to go outside and afraid of posting here now. She might have covid for all we know and spreading it to all of us on this site.

Its been business as usual more or less. There was a 2 month period at the beginning when the city shut down and plans got held up and work slowed down. But its come back with a vengeance.

Its been a fairly easy transition work wise. I've been building/prepping my office so I could be more hands off and spend more time working from home. So I have all my drafters working from home since before the mandatory quarantine back in march. Site visits are outdoors and its easy to wear a mask/social distance. Many of my clients prefer to facetime or let me do the site visit solo.

Crew is wearing masks and we have certain guidelines from the city we must follow or else the jobsite could get shut down.

Its been relatively easy to stay connected with friends. We are hanging out outside together and recently did a drive in movie night which was great. Friday night zoom calls.

I'm not going out of the way to read the news but the gem always has something playing in the background so I'm absorbing it anyways.

Covid absolutely exists. I've lost 3 people I knew well. Attending zoom funerals is surreal. Only one of the 3 actually was in the high risk category. The others were young... early 40s... no health issues... and leaving behind spouses and young kids.

My city runner has covid atm and is in the hospital because he had issues breathing. He's mid 30s and again, no health issues.

Its really heartbreaking to see others act so flippantly and recklessly just because this hasn't affected them personally. Looking at you oc

People like you need to don PPE and visit some Covid patients fighting for their life in the ICU at a hospital.

It’s not a joke or something to take lightly.

You do you and I’ll do me. Ok?

You are not only impacting yourself, but others as well. Taking this lightly and treating it as a joke, traveling to hotspots during a pandemic, and not wearing masks is selfish actions. You are only thinking about yourself and have no concern or consideration for anyone else.

You need a sober reality check: go to a local hospital and visit some Covid patients.

great, i utilize the extra time for myself. and maintaining cleanliness and health was standard before all this.

Do you believe/deny that COVID exist?

it's real, albeit questionable.

Do you follow/ignore healthcare precautions (I.e wear a mask, use sanitizer in public)?

i keep a mask/bandana and antibacterial wipes on me if need, but most are pretty chill about it here.

Do you stay at home, or resume going about to parties and gatherings?

still going out and small gatherings as usual.

How often are you keeping up-to-date with the news and # of cases?

i check every week or so, i don't get consumed in it.

Am okay with it now...initially a bit weirded out. Scorpio.

Do you believe/deny that COVID exists?

Yes it exists

Do you follow/ignore healthcare precautions (I.e wear a mask, use sanitizer in public)?

Yes, I try to use soap and water predominately as it’s been shown to be the most effective way to keep hands clean.

Do you stay at home, or resume going about to parties and gatherings?

No gatherings and when I’m out keep distance

How often are you keeping up-to-date with the news and # of cases

Often...I don’t always believe the stats as they’ve seemed to be somewhat contradictory at times

At first I was fine, I had my baby at the start of this so I was quarantining anyway like you always do with newborns...now I’m pretty fuckin over it tbh.

Do you believe/deny that COVID exist?

Yes, believe it exists.

Do you follow/ignore healthcare precautions (I.e wear a mask, use sanitizer in public)?

I wear a mask when required or if I’m around someone who is wearing theirs just to be considerate... otherwise I just stay away from people. I’ve never been a germaphobe, but I’ve always had good hand hygiene and I honestly hardly ever get sick. Maybe a sinus infection once a year due to shit genetics making me prone to them

Do you stay at home, or resume going about to parties and gatherings?

I have 2 kids under 2 😆

We go to the parks/outdoor playgrounds still, and go to close relatives houses for small family gatherings/dinners. Other than that, home and work. To be clear, not because I’m scared of the virus, but because it sounds massively unenjoyable to go anywhere right now. I miss going out to dinner 😩



How often are you keeping up-to-date with the news and # of cases?

Not at all. Not interested in participating in the hysteria. It’s just tew much. I kept up at first, but now I just hear things here and there from other people

How about you’ll tell your immediate friend and family what to do? I am not related to you so Chances of is meeting almost none.

And have you asked yourself how come homeless people never catching it? And how come rioters aren’t catching it and do you KNOW 100% that people who are dying from COVID ARE dying from COVID? I am not a sheep who mindlessly following government because they said so! It’s everyone’s individual choice!

BTW Republican states never BEEN closed and worn masks...it’s just Dems! So stop telling me what to do because I won’t.

How well does your sign and you handle it?

Obviously pretty good. One of my Sag friends who only lives to have intercourse with any woman that breathes finally got into a serious relationship. And I used this time to cut some people off or at least keep them at distance because they get on my nerves. However, one of my Aqua friends shut down completely, he has severe depression and I haven't spoken to him in months. He avoids everyone he knows.



Do you believe/deny that COVID exist?

No, I am sure it exists. Like a real hero I have sacrificed myself and avoided many opportunities for sexual intercourse in the past 3 months. My brother is a former cancer patient so not only do I avoid seeing him too often but I also have avoided cuddling with 57 women who wanted to pay me money just to take them home with me. But I didn't. Why? Brilliant question. Because I am afraid I might contract Covid and give it to my brother. I recently even cut his hair because he is not allowed to go to the barber. Sometimes I forget what an incredible human being I am. 😢 Btw, is it just me or are women really getting hornier each day?

Do you follow/ignore healthcare precautions (I.e wear a mask, use sanitizer in public)?

I wash my hands every 5 minutes, wear a mask but most importantly I talk and pray to Jesus whenever I can.

Do you stay at home, or resume going about to parties and gatherings?

I don't go to parties or gatherings but I am often outside.

How often are you keeping up-to-date with the news and # of cases?

Not that often.

I'm a Leo sun, Scorpio moon, Cancer rising. I don't believe covid is as serious as people think, and know on a the deepest level its 100% been made up to control people due to politics. At the same time I still wear a mask in public for the sake of the mentally of weaker people who are easily fooled, or think it's actually real. On the deepest level, real or not, I feel we are fucked by the powers of the world either way. If wearing a mask makes the weak feel safer, and society less chaotic in general, then I will wearing a mask. Even if my personal beliefs think its all fake af. I rather be a part of my personal community no matter what, till death do us part.

I low key don't know what to believe anymore. And yes I've felt symptoms of covid a while back I just self isolated myself for a week and all was good again. Being a double Gemini my Gemini sun don't want to believe it's real and my Gemini moon (my inner core) wants to believe it's real. So I'm playing it safe by wearing my mask at all times, wash and sanitized my hands at all times and wear gloves at all times even though I have to take my gloves off every so often so my hands can cool off.

Cancer, I think I handle it well. Introversion is no problemo
Posted by Cancer96Do you believe/deny that COVID exist?

It exists. It is real, it has killed hundreds of thousands. It is not the product of the media or political propaganda.
Posted by Cancer96Do you follow/ignore healthcare precautions (I.e wear a mask, use sanitizer in public)?

Yes.

Stay at home for the most part. I will see a few close friends.

Quite well aside from hating to have any reatrictions whatsoever and being unable to travel.

Do you believe/deny that COVID exist?

I believe SOMETHING exists but I'm not certain it's what we think it is.

Do you follow/ignore healthcare precautions (I.e wear a mask, use sanitizer in public)?

Mask only indoors where there are lots of people. I always used sanitizer and washed hands like 100 times in a day 🤷‍♀️

Do you stay at home, or resume going about to parties and gatherings?

I don't go to parties either way and avoid gatherings too. Not a fan of people being that reckless in this situation

How well does your sign and you handle it?

I’m a Sagittarius. At first, I had trouble with it, but then I realized a slow down was good for me.

Do you believe/deny that COVID exist? It exists.

Do you follow/ignore healthcare precautions (I.e wear a mask, use sanitizer in public)?

I wear a mask when I’m required to. I did it in the grocery store before we opened up & there were more requirements.

Do you stay at home, or resume going about to parties and gatherings? I worked from home & stayed put the first 3 months. Now, I’ve been back to work for a month and a half, Have dated a little, mostly keep it to a person or two for get togethers, go to dinner in restaurants, but don’t go to bigger social gatherings.

How often are you keeping up-to-date with the news and # of cases? I get daily emails in updates from my state on new cases by county & deaths just to keep aware on what’s happening locally.

i'm a virgo.

yeah coz i got it.

i'm stuck in quarantine for 2 more days.

idk about other people's experience but i placed a 5% menthol pain relief patch across my chest and it actually helped my breathing. like i know it's C O L D asf if you do that like it feels like the ice age but on the 4th-5th day when i felt like my chest was caving in every time i cough this really helped + burying myself in layers of blankets. also took antibiotics, my usual acute bronchitis meds. now i feel so much better. also i drank some sleeping pills/antihistamine at times when it was really bad. but i didn't take them that often (though the antibiotics i took every day). i mean i'm 26 so it's not like i'm gonna die, right? but my respiratory issues just won't leave me alone. oh and my sense of taste and smell came back (first time i've experienced losing those senses) and i really feel like everything's back to normal. i still feel super cold though and sometimes my throat feels itchy (but not as bad as before).

i think i'm better off than most people. i've heard other people can take months to recover. but gotta admit, that was the worst cough i've ever experienced coz for the first time i felt like my chest was breaking itself. and this is the longest i've been bedridden. (but i think the public fear made me feel even more stressed out, hearing about more deaths, watching the news etc). now my left eye developed this weird twitch when i'm too stressed lol it's creepy like you know those dolls that can close and open their eyes? except only my left eye keeps closing.

All things considered while taking my last post into consideration I've been using my time to work out as much as possible. I'm twice as fit as ever due to oing outside and running, hiking, and swimming every single day since everything shut down. I also quit going out to eat completely, and learned a ton of healthy home-cooked recipes, while also increasing my entire cooking skill in general. It's the perfect time to get physically fit, and if the government is about to take everything over, or its truly the apocalypse at least I can now run 10 km at a decent pace at this point. Most people I know couldn't make it 20 feet before dropping dead from exhaustion.

probably from work

management didn't immediately disinfect even when there were a lot of confirmed infections on the 11th floor

they're usually vigilant but i guess this is what happens when they slack for one day
