New York City no longer is in full crisis as the epicenter of the outbreak in the U.S. Stay-at-home orders have caused pain and inconvenience to virtually everyone.⁠ ⁠ But the coronavirus has infected more than 2 million Americans and killed nearly 120,000. The daily tally of new cases is now rising, not falling, both here and abroad. There have been about as many new COVID-19 cases in the U.S. over the past two weeks as there were in early April ― around 25,000 each day. The new hot spots are now places like Arizona, Florida and Texas, all states that have adopted aggressive “reopening” policies.⁠ ⁠ We may be finished with the coronavirus, but the virus isn’t finished with us.⁠ ⁠ The pain Americans are suffering because of this outbreak is very real. The many lives that COVID-19 has interrupted, ruined or ended would be enough to illustrate that. Millions are out of work, and unemployment benefits are close to running out. Businesses are shuttered. Schools are closed. Essential workers risk their health to commute to their jobs. Those working from home have to juggle their jobs and their family obligations. Families and friends are separated from each other. Whether you live alone or with others, isolation takes a heavy toll on your mental health. ⁠ ⁠ It’s all horrible. These things are all true, and they all hurt. They also don’t matter to the virus.⁠ ⁠ There is no coronavirus vaccine. There is no COVID-19 cure. The only tools we have at our disposal are the same ones everybody is fed up with. Staying at home. Hand-washing. Social distancing. Face covering. If we abandon those, it’s going to get worse. ⁠ ⁠ Read more at our link in bio. // 📝 Jeffrey Young」6月22日 23時11分
