Coronavirus

It is safe to say we have entered trickier times.  Coronavirus started in a city in China sometime in November or December (I cannot remember when) and Asia has been dealing with it ever since.  There has been a lot of discussion but not too much panic. Instead an attitude of let's deal with this as best we can. But now it has blown up in Western Europe in the USA, which means mass panic.  I am no expert but I do believe that this is not a very helpful reaction and will probably result in more chaos, loss of jobs, poverty than the virus itself.  But again, I am no expert.  For now, our school has shut, as has many schools and countries across the globe.  Europe, Canada, the US, and many South and Central American countries are on lockdown.  Sadly, Ecuador included.  We are desperately trying to fly to Barbados and then Ecuador on Friday to see family. But again know this may not be possible but as of today, we will try.   I hope the next post is after a very long journey to Barbados.   In the meantime, keep your hands clean, keep a safe distance from people and try not to panic.
