Coronavirus Cheat Sheet
Everything you need to stay healthy, happy, and help others
Coronavirus is global. It’s a pandemic, meaning it’ll affect every person in every country on the planet, be it directly via contracting the disease or indirectly through changes in work policy, travel restrictions, containment measures, or loved ones being affected.
You, however, are not global. You’re a single human being. Yet, the sum of how billions of individuals will act during this time is going to determine how fast, how well, and how strong we will emerge from this crisis as a species.
Therefore, this cheat sheet is about you. How you can stay healthy, how you can contribute, how you can survive this dilemma and help us all do the same.
Looking at you as an individual, here is what matters:
- Getting a handle on your emotions and not panicking
- Staying healthy or recovering quickly if you catch the disease
- Not infecting others, especially those weaker and more fragile than you
- Taking precautions for isolation without getting paranoid
- Finding a new, comfortable, productive daily rhythm
- Managing your mental health to stay happy and motivated
