Hi friends, A few things are on my mind this afternoon. But first: please send me your coronavirus memes, playlists, your favorite tranquil animal webcam, etc. People have started messaging me for advice on responding to coronavirus. I really appreciate your confidence in me and I know the uncertainty around basic decision making right now is super scary. That said, it feels pertinent to remind everyone that I am not an epidemiologist. To channel my own fear and uncertainty, I have tried to understand the situation by reading as much as possible, and of course I can share my perspective as a chronically ill person who's been housebound before. I will happily talk through a decision with you if you would like, but any considerations I raise will be based on information gleaned from other sources, and not any inherent knowledge I have about viruses. I think you all know this, and I try to only share information from reliable sources, but there's a lot of panic and misinformation flying around and I might mess up! I want to be as transparent as possible. I know people have a lot on their plates right now so I'm hoping the newsletter is helpful, but please consider this a friendly disclaimer!
