(16,951 posts)getting the flu. Wash/alcohol gel your hands frequently during the day. Don't touch your face. Get plenty of rest. Minimize contact with sick people. Cough/sneeze into your elbow and teach others to do the same. Lots we can do. Same with this mess, only we didn't do it and now we're sick. What we should have been doing: Be politically engaged. Inform ourselves about local/state/national issues and candidates. Encourage those around us to do the same. Call our reps and senators, state and national, on a regular basis. VOTE!!! I'll admit to not doing much of that except voting. Shame on me but I'm doing better now and so are so very, very many others. We'll beat this but winter always returns and we need to stay prepared.
