Second month of the year and it’s already gone. Time flies incredibly fast! Most important happening of the month: coronavirus. It started out in China. The government could not control its population although extreme measures were taken. Many were infected and many are still flying out there spreading the virus. Now Europe has its biggest expansion of the virus in Italy. Yes, the Asian part is very little known of as nobody really talks about anything else than China. Sadly most of our day to day objects, the consumerist ones, are “Made in People’s Republic of China”. And as people are kept in quarantine, there are delays in delivery of merchandise or even making of it. 

In a way yes, products will be more expensive, but it may also be that good old Europe may learn to produce stuff again. Maybe it’s wishful thinking. 

As a mother I am not that scared. I looked at some news, I learned again about hygiene and wish for the best. I don’t wear a mask. I had a cold and I didn’t wear a mask. I refuse to let into this psycho fear of the virus.

I believe Romanians are resilient to viruses as their common practice is to each drive their own car anywhere even to the closest store.

And there are a few other nations that don’t use so much the public transportation. It is actually a good solution to help us not get sick. And I drove my kid to daycare when all this started. No fear!

But did you know there are actually more people dying of normal flu than of this strange marketed virus? Yes, it’s bad there is no cure to it. Did you check the list of those who are extremely sensitive to the virus? I have. It says diabetes and those with a heart condition. Do you have such people around you? They usually are lacking exercise. Now is the time to get yourself in shape if you want to survive. There is no vaccine in the next months. You might try the flu vaccine, but it won’t help in front of this virus. It’s a different thing. 

Last, but not least, Japan takes measures and companies announce their employees to work from home in the upcoming weeks. Can you imagine that? You don’t have to drive to work everyday. You can just get out of bed, exercise and then get on your laptop and start pushing the buttons. Japan is not yet prepared for working from home employees. Romanians employees would be as they are always inventive. They work from home even when they are supposed to be at work. That’s what I love about this country! It has people who can get out strange situations and they don’t get stuck in front of a closed window. I am pretty sure Romanians will get away easily from this virus!
