Isn’t it interesting how much chaos a tiny virus can cause?

The respiratory illness, called COVID-19 that started in China, is a virus that has shaken the world. Radical changes have occurred in everything from non-profit groups cancelling their trip overseas to schools closing and encouraging their students to learn from a safe home environment.

Even sporting events have been shifted to only include the participating athletes with no spectators. Talk about deflating one’s performance! 

LeBron James is saying enough is enough. He won’t play if the fans aren’t there.

Just recently, I read about a 2-pack of 8-ounce hand sanitizers listed on Amazon for $114.97. Another listing showed a hand sanitizer for $55. Crazy!! 

And don’t even get me started on people who are hoarding toilet paper… Maybe they think they can cover their home in the stuff to keep out germs.

If that wasn’t enough, the Fed recently slashed interest rates by a half of a percentage point in an emergency rate cut.
