It’s been quite a while since I’ve had time to update this blog, but I thought it was important to collate and share some of the public health warnings and PSA about coronavirus (COVID-19) from both governments and celebrities, in the hope that people can learn from some of the excellent videos and infographics being shared on social media to combat this awful pandemic. Keep safe everyone.

COVID-19 has no respect for person, status, or affiliation. We have all been affected by this terrible illness. But there's hope. We can beat this if we maintain social distance. Let's not stand so close together for a little while. Huge thanks to Jakob Bilinski and Cinephreak Pictures!**We do not own the rights to this music**#togetherapart #socialdistance #allhandsondeck
