People are worried about losing their jobs, their businesses and their homes. They are fearful about the health of their loved ones.
This can take a great toll on one's psyche. There are people out there who are alone and isolated. I fear we may see people in despair, fall into destructive behavior and even take their own life. I see a lot of pain out there.
I want to add. It is important to keep talking to friends and family and comfort each other as much as we can.
