I'm carrying on as normal as best I can. I'm still isolating and working from home but as somebody that doesn't like going out much I'm quite enjoying it. |

It's not like it some kind of Flesh-eating virus. Just obey the rules laid out and you'll be fine.
People need to get used to things like this, it won't be the last time we may end up in this situation. |

"No, I have a slightly raised risk but what will be will be, compared to those stood in mud waiting for the order to go over the top into a hail of bullets this is a walk in the park. "
Exactly what I keep telling myself  |

Not scared just sad about the situation. I’m concerned for the vulnerable people, the people who are now alone and what impact it will have on children x |

We are very scared, Sariah is in the high risk group and we have both nursed people dieing of respiratory disease it's not a nice way to die
Taking every precaution we can. This viruses is no respector of age, don't believe the myth it only affects people with underlying health conditions.
We have colleuges and friends in working ITUs up and down the country |

I'm not scared. Following the guidelines on how to protect myself and others around me and looking out for those more vulnerable than I am.
I'm sad for others in a worse situation then me, the homeless, the vulnerable that don't understand what is going on, but not scared. |

Frustrated more than anything else.
For the first time in my life I'm being classed as 'vulnerable' and I'm having to work from home as best I can as I work for a 'key pu lic sector organisation'.

I'm terrified. My brain can't deal with it all.
I'm getting on with it and doing what I can though, there are people who are in a worse position than me and I'm so grateful for those still out there working and fighting this.

I'll admit I'm scared. I'm over thinking, and I'm hyper sensitive to things that I'm not usually. I worry about elderly relatives not in my area so I'm unable to offer them any physical help. I worry about my young children, the effect it's having on them now, in a few weeks, months and probably years.
I know to take all the advice and precautions but it's the not knowing that's around the corner that is freaking me out  |

Wow, it seems that I'm in the minority. I'm not scared at all.
The best thing you can do is to make sure your older and vulnerable loved ones stay inside and take reasonable precautions.
It makes no difference whether your next door neighbour has parties or whatever - focus on your parents/grandparents.
For me personally, I'm taking it all with a pinch of salt. I still take my kids for walks. I shop when I need to without any fuss, just as I always have done. The only major thing or changed is that I won't be visiting my nan for a while - I'll message her on watsapp/Facebook instead.

I'm classed as vulnerable due to medical condition so finished work on Friday for 3 months. Initially I was scared for the first few days but that has lessened but still plays on my mind from time to time. Currently bored out of my skull, thought I could do stuff in the flat but doesn't really look like I've made the effort to do anything yet. |

I learnt a long time ago that there is no point worrying about those things you have no control over.. I have no control over the virus.. I have no control over other people. But I do have control of my self and my life. So I control those aspects. I can make life as normal as possible for my kids.. yes its easier for me as I've been home schooling anyway.
I've made sure they have food... and are staying safe.. I am concerned... but as I say... I'm not going to let fear overrule me. I keep an eye on the statistics then take them and put them into a way I am not going to get panicked. For instance instead of looking at number that died. I look at number or recovered...
Something I wish we had figures for in the uk. |

Scared? Yes I'm scared I served 22 years in the British army was in 6 or 7 warzones and wasn't frightened in the slightest this virus is different it's an unseen enemy am I scared of dying NO but very scared for my family and if I'm the casualty scared that I'll never see my children again so I think for many different reasons we should all be scared x |

Im not scared of the virus as I look at it this way if it's my time up then I can't change that at all.
I also think there isn't as many dieing as they say from Corona. Let's say they say 600 in UK died but truthfully how many have died from the common flu and how many from the virus.
Either way it's all very sad

Very decent attitude but wrong line of thought you have to tell yourself and everybody else that we will beat this not resign to the fact that you might be a casualty x |

Yes I'm more scared for others than myself.
I fear that when I eventually go back to work I will catch it and spread it on to others.
I'm hoping it will burn out and not be a re-occurring thing like the flu is. |

It will be reoccurring but hopefully it will be no bigger than flu next time round as we'll have a vaccine |
