As many around the world are still facing extended periods of self-quarantine to help fight the spread of coronavirus, lets keep the healthcare workers and other professionals tasked with keeping hospitals, emergency services, food supplies, shops, supermarkets, postal and delivery services working for our communities, in our thoughts. 
Many of those looking after our interests in shops and the like on a daily basis are often some of the lowest paid in our society, but have risen to this challenge selflessly. I am grateful to all of those who continue to look out for all of us, and hope they know how much we all appreciate their help, support and for some, sacrifice. They are heroes! 
We have great social media networks that also allow us to stay in touch with friends and loved ones even if we’re far apart geographically, and which allow us to offer support to the wider community on a daily basis too; so lets spread positivity, love and camaraderie to all. Best wishes to everyone; hope everybody stays happy and healthy; and don’t forget Taiji is a great way to maintain good health for all ages and is easy to do at home! And check out these interesting articles about staying healthy, personal hygiene, clothes washing practices among others, to help prevent Covid-19 infection. Stay safe & well, and keep positive everyone! https://www.huffpost.com/entry/how-long-coronavirus-live-clothing-washing_l_5e724927c5b6eab779409e74 https://bit.ly/3bGExW9 https://www.huffpost.com/entry/how-to-make-face-mask-from-fabric-covid-19_l_5e834a20c5b62dd9f5d628e8?yho https://www.yahoo.com/entertainment/coronavirus-safety-precautions-shopping-groceries-232339694.html https://www.latimes.com/lifestyle/story/2020-04-02/time-to-make-your-own-face-mask-doctors-and-hospitals-show-you-how https://www.marketwatch.com/story/this-might-be-the-simplest-no-sew-diy-coronavirus-mask-2020-04-03?siteid=yhoof2&yptr=yahoo https://bit.ly/2Rdz4OH https://www.huffpost.com/entry/how-long-coronavirus-live-clothing-washing_l_5e724927c5b6eab779409e74 Washing Clothes: https://bit.ly/3bGExW9 https://www.huffpost.com/entry/how-to-make-face-mask-from-fabric-covid-19_l_5e834a20c5b62dd9f5d628e8?yho https://www.yahoo.com/entertainment/coronavirus-safety-precautions-shopping-groceries-232339694.html https://www.latimes.com/lifestyle/story/2020-04-02/time-to-make-your-own-face-mask-doctors-and-hospitals-show-you-how https://www.marketwatch.com/story/this-might-be-the-simplest-no-sew-diy-coronavirus-mask-2020-04-03?siteid=yhoof2&yptr=yahoo https://www.yahoo.com/lifestyle/diy-face-mask-materials-best-180552062.html https://www.yahoo.com/entertainment/coronavirus-own-cloth-face-mask-130041857.html https://elemental.medium.com/is-it-really-safe-to-exercise-outside-d74610a3508b Visiting the Grocery Store:https://bit.ly/2Rdz4OH And finally, a very interesting article about the use of slogans to help control social distancing during the Covid-19 epidemic; by friend & colleague Asen Velinov! https://medium.com/@asensv_3605/if-you-love-your-parents-lock-them-up-2f96c75a05f0?from=singlemessage&isappinstalled=0 (Thank you to DDA Art Director Xu Zhi Wen for his fabulous artwork!)
