Many shocked jokes, late night comedy skits, and more about Trumps remarks. Traditional role of the nations leader is to give advice about how to protect the entire country and to show that he cares about Americans. Instead, Trump suggested something deadly and showed he doesn’t care at all. This meme is particularly good because Clorox bleach is upside down as if attached to an iv and turned into an inhaler and pills. In the current pandemic, disinfectant products like Clorox or 409 can be hard to find. Public health agencies are scrambling to teach people not to use bleach or Lysol internally because some might try the President’s ideas. It’s dangerous and it never was a joke as we all know.
The memes help us cope by laughing at the utter horror of covid19 deaths and the terrible federal response led by the president.

[Giana worked as a volunteer in Haven for Hunger food pantry]“By exposing myself to people who were affected the most by the spread of COVID-19 I was able to recognize my privilege in a pandemic that affects everyone. This has made me immensely more aware of the resources I have access to day-to-day. Similarly to what is said by Dylan Santos on page 169 of Harkins, “it is one thing to theoretically learn about the struggles that others face; it’s another to hear from the people who are struggling and see what that looks like for each individual person”. With both of my service-learning experiences, I was able to interact with the people who are discarded, and especially in regard to COVID-19, so many of these people are viewed as a number or a statistic. Through this experience, I was able to humanize and finally see who was being affected the most. I have already signed up for future volunteer opportunities and I fully intend to continue expanding what I already know.”

One month after the US declared a national emergency, the virus is still spreading rapidly. New York, as a severe area in the United States, has the most diagnosed numbers. Even so, the New Yorkers did not give up hope for a moment. New York florist Lewis Miller, reproduces his iconic street floral, FlowerFlash, on the empty streets of New York in the epidemic, paying tribute to the frontline New York medical staff with the vitality of flowers. Lewis Miller used all kinds of flowers to show the vigorous vitality, just like the hope that New Yorkers never extinguish.

This is a screenshot of my trip itinerary for my Spring Break in March. I felt that this was a good contribution because this was the start of the uproar of the pandemic. Once I came back on the 14th everything changed. Business shut down, traveling limited, and school moved to online for the rest of the semester. This was a very significant time for me.

Here comes the second month of quarantine in our country. There are people who observe quarantine, and there are people who do not care about the situation and they continue to live as they lived before. Students, schoolchildren are studying remotely. I envy them, of course. Studying at home is so great. But there are disadvantages of such an education, schoolchildren are stupid. After all, some parents do their own homework, and children are not explained anything. Beauty salons, trading houses, markets are closed. Only grocery stores are open. In certain shops we only let in 5 people, and at this time on the street 20 people are waiting for their turn to enter the shop and people do not even keep a distance from us being on the street. There are practically no cars on the street. In our city, it is completely banned to travel by private transport, allowed only to certain people. It became so free at once. Public transport has been restricted, it only goes in the morning or evening, but these buses go in small quantities. It's quicker to walk to work. Some people are panicking. They don't know what happens next...

The California Valley Miwok Tribe’s Chairwoman Silvia Burley issued a statement in response to the $2 trillion coronavirus stimulus bill passed by Congress: “Our Tribe, like many others throughout the United States, will not see a penny from the federal stimulus package despite our members’ dire need and right to these funds. An ongoing dispute with the Bureau of Indian Affairs over our Tribe’s right to self-govern has placed our Tribal members’ health and safety, including that of my mother – the last full blood Miwok Indian, at immediate risk.” #IndigenousStories

This is a picture of four containers filled with homemade hand sanitizer from strong alcohol with a percentage of over 80% and other things like aloe vera and to make it smell better and not dry out your hands. It costs about 15 dollars to make but you can make it for weeks. The things you will need are:
-measuring cup
- measuring spoons
- whisk
- empty spray bottles or empty lotion or sanitizer container
1 cup of 99% isopropyl alcohol
1 tablespoon of 3% hydrogen peroxide
1 teaspoon of 98% glycerin
1/4 cup of sterile distilled or boiled cold water
This can yield 2.6 GALLONS of hand sanitizer. Obviously you won't need this much but now you have hand sanitizer as long as you need it.

“Native Americans are being left out of demographic data on the impact of the coronavirus across the US, raising fears of hidden health emergencies in one of the country’s most vulnerable populations. A Guardian analysis found that about 80% of state health departments have released some racial demographic data, which has already revealed stark disparities in the impact of Covid-19 in black and Latinx communities. But of those states, almost half did not explicitly include Native Americans in their breakdowns and instead categorized them under the label ‘other’” #IndigenousStories

The quarentine has opened up the time for myself and my parents to binge watch the show 90 Day Fiance together. It has been a good way for us to get together, not get on each others nerves, and to take our minds off of the pandemic for a little bit. Recently the show has started a new small series where they have cast members vlog from home and discuss their experiences and how their lives have changed with the virus. It was interesting to so this kind of programming on cable. These days have been blurring together for a lot of us in my household, but having shows that post weekly helps orient myself to the day of week that it is.
