Keeping spirits up. So many things in life are now unavailable or changed in the short term. The mental health of us all will be challenged, there’s no doubt, so Rich sharing that tweet, or listening to upbeat music or anything that can bring a smile will be helpful.
This is going to be our new normal for a while, we need to find some mental health relief too.
For those of you who are doing what you should to reduce the rate of transmission, thank you.
At some point, the implications of this are going to slam the hospital and ACFs my wife works for/with hard. What you are doing is going to mitigate that to some degree and as a result, mitigate the stress and work my wife is going have to deal with.

I’m so happy dogs are not carrying or spreading Covid-19 because I desperately need my daily snuggles.

From what I understand the World Health Organization said dogs can not transmit it so dogs that were in quarantine have been released from it.
So you can say… WHO let the dogs out….
Not sure if this is in fact true.
