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

I think the most notable way that COVID affected my life this week is that I've had to wait and reschedule a doctor's examination three times for a coposcopy that has significantly affected my mental health. I've had to wait and worry for over a month to get an appointment, and last week it had to be changed out of the blue because of something out of my control. I'm also worried about going to the doctors because so many people have gotten sick being at the doctors and in hospitals and there is only so much that people can do to contain and stop the spread in those spaces. I worry too that hospital staff are taking the virus less seriously because my state has started to open.
