COVID-19 hits home!
Two of my family members in the Philippines are now fighting for their lives against CoVID-19. My Papa Rene Velasquez and Uncle Tommy Quindao are both admitted at Cebu Doctor’s University Hospital and are currently intubated as their oxygen levels became critically low.
The physical, mental, emotional and financial burden is difficult to bear especially to their immediate families who are now all in quarantine.
Both my Papa Rene and Uncle Tommy are very good people who unfortunately caught the disease. Those who know them can attest to how great these two are.
Public health emergencies, such as the outbreak of coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19), are stressful times for people and communities. Fear and anxiety about a disease can lead to social stigma toward people, places, or things.
Stigma affects the emotional or mental health of the affected people and their families.
Everyone can help stop stigma related to COVID-19 by knowing the facts and sharing them with others.
Helping yourself and others cope with stress can make your community stronger.
Do not makeup stories to create chaos and havoc. Instead of wallowing up in fear why dont you show compassion and ask the affected families on how you can help them cope up with this trial.
What i hate the most are hypocrites, specially those who preach the Word of God but not even practicing it. Those people who are just with you in good times and when you have something to give but when you are in need, they ran away from you as far as possible.
