I was supposed to be going to a concert tonight to see a band that's not in the UK very often that got canceled last min because of corona virus.
I work on cruise ships as seasonal staff and so many cruise lines (including 4 the company I work for owns) have been suspending operations until about the time I'm supposed to sign on for my last long Summer contract. Even though I'm leaving the company to start uni right after I finish that contract, I'm really anxious about if I'll have that contract or not because I'm relying on that last long contract to get extra money behind me for uni. I don't have a plan B because this kind of thing has never been an issue before and this job is my only source of income.
Also my boating group has decided to suspend all meetings until further notice because of corona virus.

I hope it doesn't last too long. Or at least is under control soon
I'm supposed to be going to a concert in April and a vacation to TN in May but i dunno if that's gonna happen anymore...
It really sucks cause now schools cancelled and my mom doesn't want me going to the gym either but my dad said he'd take me which is nice. I've made alot of progress in getting healthier i can't lose it. It's getting closer and closer to my area it's making me nervous. We went from like no cases to 36 in 48 hours.

My uni just moved all classes to online only. We will be getting updates on specific classes shortly. I would have had two midterms next week, but obviously that's not happening anymore.
I think that preventative measures like this are necessary. My campus of 30k people has had no positive case yet, and they still shut it down. It basically ensures nobody will get it from uni, and less of a chance for people to get it on transit since they won't be using it. It is serious. We should be cautious. We should NOT panic. People saying "oh it's just like the flu lololol" are wrong. It's devastating to demographics that are at risk (elderly and immunocompromised) so everyone should be avoiding contracting it at all costs.
I'm the most upset that all of my band rehearsals are likely going to be canceled. Band keeps me sane, and all of my friends are in band. I'm in 3 bands right now that all have concerts at the start of April. I'm anticipating those will be canceled. That absolutely destroys me. It freaks me out and makes me feel sick to think of everything just... stopping. Losing control and stopping routines makes me so much more scared than the virus itself.
I just hope it blows over by the summer, because if it doesn't... I don't even want to think about being cooped up in my house all summer. No way. No freaking way. I've had a really bad winter, and the only thing that got me through it was the thought of the summer getting closer and closer. Now, I'm worried that I won't even be able to enjoy myself without being scared to even go outside.
I'm just very upset by all of this. Ugh.

my school has been canceled for about a month.
edit- one of my brothers might have the virus, he has a sore throat and a runny nose, and we think he has a raised temperature, but none of our thermometers are working so we don't know for sure.
I hope that everyone can stay safe, please please don't go out to stores and social gatherings if you don't have to. be careful and stay safe, the only way this will get worse is if we let it.

oooooh. ok that's why my thread was locked
hi
if you're immunocompromised or at risk for some other reason or live/work with people who are i love you, if that's ok to say, i love you a lot
i have to go to back and forth from the hospital and dr due to health problems, i am extremely anxious, if i get sick it will likely hospitalize me but i'm more worried about spreading it to people who could die, and i can't wear a mask because my parents wouldn't let me, they don't care if they become carriers. i have to get help now, i may die if i don't, i have been getting worse even lately and don't want to live like this anymore but i still feel selfish because i could get sick and spread it. for people who have to go to medical places even more often, or who live in one, i hope you and others will be ok, i love you
i wish everybody luck in all of this. if you get sick even after taking so many precautions, it's not a failure, it's not your fault, it doesn't mean you didn't try hard enough or that you're dirty. and to those living with people who don't care, i hope that you all stay safe and i'm sorry that you live with people like that, i think ignoring it is another way of coping but even so it's not safe to ignore it, especially if you're a parent or guardian
i hope this is ok to post, i think it's heavy, i didn't elaborate in my last thread

Both of my parents, who I live with, are high risk. We're officially in self quarantine as a preventative measure as of today, because its concerningly close to us now and it could have dire consequences if my parents contracted it. Its really scary right now :/

I wasn't as stressed a couple days ago because I was a bit numb. But now, not feeling good at all. Lots of anxiety and stress. Frankly, I am very concerned for my (relatively elderly) parents getting it, not so much myself. I'm doing my best to stay indoors but I don't know how long the crisis will last. Had to cancel a few friend meetups recently, so it's going to be pretty lonely too :/

Uh. Yeah it is. People who are sick go to public gatherings and infect people, concerts, airplanes, supermarkets (that are now extremely crowded), etc. Heck, there's a guy who went on a plane and upon landing informed the crew that he had tested positive for Coronavirus.
It's peoples fault that pandemics spread.

i apologize, you're right and i didn't know about that guy, people do have a responsibility to others to quarantine themselves if they're sick, and to wash their hands and do what they can to keep others safe
carelessness has influenced a lot of this actually, i think
(also i have amended my post, i apologize for also being careless)

I'm going to a flight academy in summer I hope it doesn't get cancelled because of this virus. I get free shirts from it.
