Anyone feeling less anxious about Corona?

Some of the stats and the anecdotal evidence from my mum (works in A&E) seems encouraging. I feel a lot better personally and think I have adjusted to the idea of lockdown.

How about you? Or do you feel worse?

MN is full of hysteria at the best of times but this virus has taken it to another level. People are being called 'wicked' and accused of 'killing people' because they admit to taking a solitary walk to the park (which is permitted as far as I'm aware?) or a quick trip to the supermarket with a child in tow - often because they have no alternative/childcare.

"Tight , painful lungs, after coughing, talking or walking,"

Sounds scary-and worse than anything I've had with my asthma (so far!)

I think it's fear of the unknown.

Working in a hospital with no protective clothing whatsoever and people around me dying of CV with a third of the staff off with symptoms and people outside swanning about like there is no lockdown...no I don't feel less anxious about it.
I'm waiting for the shit to hit the fan.

I'm quite chilled out about the whole thing - hoping it gets wrapped up as quickly as possible as I need to go on holiday
