The world is currently facing a pandemic.

COVID-19 has spread throughout the world at an alarming, unsettling rate. With no known vaccine (as of yet), there is a public panic and immense amount of pressure being placed on healthcare professionals.

The public, as a whole, is in a state of disarray and panic. What is important at a time like this is to remain calm and educated. The public should be looking towards reputable news sources for the latest updates and information regarding COVID-19, sources such as the Center for Disease Control (CDC), and the World Health Organization (WHO).  While this is a stressful period for everyone, we need to remember who is on the frontlines of this battle - healthcare workers.
