We live in confusing times. We’re told to stay at home,
unless we’re “essential.” Masks are useless, but don’t go anywhere without one.
Gloves are also useless, unless they’re not. The virus can stay active on
different surfaces for hours or days or maybe not. It might be airborne, unless
it isn’t. Watching the news causes depression and anxiety; check regularly for
updates. There’s a test shortage: sick humans can’t get tested, but a tiger in
the Bronx zoo can. There’s no treatment for this, except maybe there is. It’s
important to eat well and exercise to stay healthy. But grocery stores are
breeding grounds for disease, the gyms are all closed, and you should really
avoid city parks. Make a 2-week shopping list so you don’t have to go to the
store as often. But the store will be out of half the items on your list. I’m
tired just thinking about it. Wait. Is that a symptom?
