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

Here in Perth, Western Australia we have been extremely lucky, Covid 19 is being kept in check. We have restrictions to travel around Australia and if come back to Perth, we need to isolate in hotel quarantine for 14 days. We also need to check in to cafes and restaurants either mandatory writing names and phone number down or check in through our Safe WA app. It has become the new normal, and if it helps keep Covid 19 under control then it is something we just keep on doing here in Perth, Western Australia. Social distancing became the new norm but I feel we are becoming very complacent, we also were told recently to stock up on face masks too. So I feel we are waiting for the other shoe to drop so to speak. My Dad has also recently been diagnosed with prostate cancer and so that means this disease adds to my anxiety about his health and care.
