Covid-19 perspective by Lauren Brooks' dad

I don't mean to minimize the true dangers of this virus, but Lauren Brooks' dad wrote something about WW2 to put stay-at-home orders in perspective. I thought it was interesting.

That was a wonderful article. It’s hard to imagine what they went through back then.

I really enjoyed reading this article. I've heard a lot of the same stories from my own grandparents who had lived through WW II in Europe. Maybe that's why I am a lot calmer about the current situation with coronavirus than my husband, whose family has not experienced the same things first-hand as mine had. I definitely take precautions with Coronavirus, but I take it in stride and I carry on. With appropriate social distancing.
