The world is shutting down
One by one the world's countries close their borders. Shops, restaurants, theaters are closing their doors. The streets are empty. President Macron said today that "We are at war." - People are allowed to leave home only to procure food, for medical reasons, or to go to work if they can't work remotely.
The world is really shutting down.
In the photo is Elsie and Anna. They are the dogs of my elderly neighbor. Because she is not well, she has decided to self-isolate as a preventative measure against the coronavirus. This morning I walked her dogs and I will continue to do so in the next few weeks. The coronavirus outbreak looks likely to be challenging for our older population, so it is more important than ever to be vigilant and look out for older friends, neighbours and relatives to make sure they’re OK.
Stay home and take care of yourself.
