Unimpressive WinCo Precautions
While going grocery shopping for Thanksgiving, I was surprised to see this green bean display that people were going through with uncovered hands. Though most of the bulk goods at WinCo have been partitioned into pre-packaged bags, some of the produce is still open for people to touch. I know that COVID isn't highly transmissible via surface contact, but it was still off-putting to see people touching food that others would eat. I'll be washing my vegetables more thoroughly after seeing this! -

Covid-19 Crises
I chose the photograph of a closed store sign because during this pandemic a lot was changed due to the given circumstances. At the beginning of Covid, everything was closed that was not essentials, due to that I stayed without a job. I was unemployed and was receiving no alternative sources of income. This was scary to think about as there were bills that had to be payed and working at a new job could have put you at risk of catching this newly formed infection. Going to the stores that were open were also a different and frightening experience, there were so many people not social distancing at the grocery stores and etc who were not even wearing masks or using gloves that it was putting yourself in danger just for going out to buy the basics needed for living. Now a few months later, more places are opening but the question is, is this a good or a bad thing? I am now reemployeed, but I am getting paid the same as I used to even though I am risking my life each and every day coming in contact with hundreds of people a day, cleaning restrooms and making sure im well protected at all times. Still nothing can go back to normal, people cannot just go to the fair or the movies or skating as they could before this part of soon to be history because of its risks. It is important to stay safe and to continue to push through these times so that one does not just become a statistic in a book of the many of millions that have died during theses times due to Covid-19. -

Cooking at Home
During the pandemic, I learned to cook at home since most of the restaurants are closed and stop the service of dine-in. Also, I think it is unsafe for now to go out frequently so I decided to cook at home. It is fun for me during the epidemic but I miss those delicious restaurants outside. -

Safety hazard
Im sharing this picture because it shows how humans were before the pandemic. How close we are to one another all around the world should have been deemed unsafe from the beginning. Its tragic that the world has to be falling apart before we notice that something is wrong. It is important to wash your hands and keep distance from others. Not just in this pandemic but all around -
