The current news cycles concerning COVID-19 today are frightening. The media has portrayed COVID-19 as an amazingly deadly virus. And to some people, that is very true. But not to about 98% of those who are COVID-19 positive. The death rates still hover around 2%, and that is only out of the known – testing…

By Angelica | Apr 6, 2020 | Comments Off on The effects of physical distancing will be long-lasting
