I went to HEB (regional grocery store) today. The city passed an ordinance requiring all people to wear a mask or cloth face covering a few days ago and people are starting to transition to following that rule. Most people were wearing a mask or bandanna of some kind but very few were covering their face correctly. I saw employees take the mask off to talk to people, then put them back on. Scary stuff! Do these people not know how to properly use them or do they just not care? It was terrifying to shop because no one was respectful of the social distancing. I’m so scared I’ll get the virus and pass it on to my grandma since we live together. I’m scared of the complications the virus could have for me too. I’ve had bronchitis twice I’m the last 5 years and I’m worried this time I’ll get pneumonia. This crisis is aggravating my anxiety, all my dreams are nightmares now and I’m scared every time someone in my house leaves. I worry they’ll be exposed to Covid 19 and bring it home.
