It is important to know you are not on your own.

There are several various ways that people can manage their wellbeing.  

Try to keep things in perspective – medical, scientific and public health professionals are working hard to control the virus, care for those affected, and vaccinate people as quickly as possible. 

Have a healthy media coverage balance – while it is important to stay up to date limiting your media consumption may be beneficial to decrease feelings of anxiety. 

It’s also important to remember that you don’t have to do it alone.  

Communicate with your friends, family, and peers to stay connected.
