Panicking!

Think about it...when did panicking, freaking out or stressing out about something make it any better? Never! It is important to remain calm and follow the right procedures in order to prevent yourself from getting the virus. Panicking only causes us more anxiety and stress surrounding the virus.

Hanging out with friends
Although this is certainly a time when you would want to be around your friends it is best not to go visit your friends. If we are going to practice social distancing that means staying home and only going out when it is essential such as to go buy groceries. People are making the mistake of going to friends' houses and this is a big no-no. There will be lots of time to go visit friends once this pandemic is all over.
