A virus is a tiny, tiny thing. However, this one is kicking our a&&.

How does it get around? A sneeze. A cough. A breath. If you live where you can see your breath in the winter, you know what I mean.

How do we protect ourselves? Stay away from another's breath/water droplets.

Does a virus laugh when we act like it is our right not to protect ourselves? Does it laugh when we act that we are too tough to contract it? Really, it doesn't care. It only cares to get from one person to another via breath/water droplets.

A virus "fears" that it cannot get from an infected person to its next victim because if it cannot get to its next victim, it dies.

Wherever you go, don't let the virus win. Don't let it make you a sucker. Protect yourself with distance, absence or a mask. Protect those you love by not letting yourself carry a virus to them.

Don't let the virus win. We have 4% of the world's population but have about 20% of the world's cases (7 million+) and 20% of the world's deaths (over 200,000). Distance, absence and a mask are our weapons to defeat the virus. Use them.
