Amanda Christensen Comments:
Our world as we know it has seemingly changed overnight as countries globally make the decision to impose lockdown-type mandates in a worldwide effort to slow the spread of the deadly coronavirus (Covid-19).
As statistics, mandates, stocks, and all information related to coronavirus changes minute by minute, it can be overwhelming to keep up with it all, let alone separate fact from fiction, with misinformation being spread just as rapidly as the virus itself.
In this unprecedented time in our lives, we must adapt to our new situation by means of social distancing, working from home, and ensuring our news sources are credible.
As we try to keep up with our ever-changing new normal, two questions persist: how are we going to adjust to this new situation, and what does this mean for the future?
