I am not sure if this is the right forum for this but wondered if members might find it helpful to have a thread to share their experiences of coping with the Covid-19 pandemic and to support each other.

I am OK. I go out to do some food shopping every few days and stay home the rest of the time. Most people obey the rules. The most important one is never to come closer to anybody else than about 1.5 metres. When I get back home the first thing I do is to wash my hands carefully with soap and water.

I phoned my sister in NZ last week. She is fine and reassured me that as far as she can make out all of the other members of my whanau (kinship group/big family) are as well. That was good to hear.
