In our modern age of globalism, viruses, bacteria and disease travel at a rate never before seen, however, so too does information.

This is the great equalizer and moving into the coming days, as the masses truly begin to wake up to the new reality that they now find themselves living in, information is going to be vital.

The ability to learn, inform yourself and get the latest, breaking news in regard to a global pandemic is almost instantaneous.

This allows people to react quicker, respond faster and take the required steps in helping slow down the spread of COVID-19, where as in previous crisis, the spread of information occurred at a much slower rate.

This rapid spread of information means that people are much more conscious of the decisions that they make, that could possible affect others adversely in these precarious times.

Additionally, it allows people to apply this knowledge in a very powerful way to others around them.
This is where the true power of social awareness comes into effect...

Yup, the only thing we can do now is to be part of the solution. Self quarantine and practice social distancing. However, social distancing is a privilege in a third world country, One main problem is some workers can't afford to just stay home and watch netflix. They have to go to work for them to eat. They have no safety nets, no bank accounts, no free rents. The government promised to help them but they still can't get it right away. Social distancing is the solution but others decided to die from the virus than to die hungry. I wish the local government unit from my country can help them, that is also part of the solution to contain the virus.
