    Besides, if people want to help the environment, they don't need to thing in terms 'all or nothing' - quite on the contrary, small things matter, changing a small habit - if this is widespread - will have a huge total impact. In many cases people are just unaware about the choices they make.

    Health New Coronavirus in China

    Well it may not be that bad Angela, perhaps COVID will be like simple cold after some time (years, I mean). It will still be here, but people won't get very sick from it, once they got through with it once.

    Take a good care of yourself Duarte, I am so sorry that it has been so hard on you! COVID is really tricky, as it is so easy on some and so difficult on others. It feels like a gambling game - you never know if you draw a lucky or a bad card.
