I haven’t written a blog post in over two years, but if there’s a time start posting again, it’s in the middle of a pandemic. As you know, coronavirus is sweeping the world right now. With an abundance of access to news, social media, and personal opinions about the disease, comes conflicting information and resources. Thus, I’ve compiled a list of reputable and trustworthy sources anyone can check in order to stay up to date about the coronavirus response.
