How has media coverage of the coronavirus influenced what you think, how you feel, or what you do?

I'm pretty active on Facebook, my kids would say too active.When I see good articles about why we should be careful to avoid COVID I post them. However I post them in a way that excludes my conservative friends, to avoid getting in arguments with them. Several of them thing COVID is not nearly as bad as it is portrayed in the mainstream media. I don't agree. My aunt (with whom I wasn't close), my favorite English teacher, a friend from high school's mother and my sister-in-laws uncle all died from COVID. Back to a general post, we have had two friends whose sister died in a country across the Atlantic but they were unable to attend the funeral due to COVID.
