How is the coronavirus pandemic affecting your life right now? Tell us about your experiences, feelings, and thoughts.

I am going hold from college in 1 week. I am from New York City, and I remember the worst of the pandemic because I was home for the whole time. Now in the city they are shutting down restaurants again and considering closing the public schools and it feels like were on our way to a second wave. It's weird to have been at college and been in a sort of bubble, and now I'm heading back to one of the epicenters of the second wave. Now every day I'm going to think about putting my family in danger every time I go outside, while at college I wasn't really worried about putting anyone at risk. Additionally, as we register for class for second semester, I'm starting to worry about whether or not we'll be able to come back to school in February.
