This week on Quarantining With Kumar, I talk about how life has changed drastically in a short period of time because of COVID-19.

Show notes:

  • Recorded while driving around to get some essentials

  • Day 5 of self-quarantine, working from home

  • The state of Massachusetts has pretty much closed all non-essential businesses

  • We haven't experienced anything like this before (in my lifetime)

  • Life after 9/11 was weird, but got back to normal fairly quickly

  • Some states have implemented "shelter in place" rules

  • Social distancing is the big buzzword

  • Public gatherings are outlawed

  • Spring breakers defied warnings

  • Everything's getting canceled: Sports, trips, concerts

  • We need to stay home to keep virus from spreading

  • Most people I know are complying with the quarantine

  • Musicians are doing livestreams instead of concerts

  • Optimistic this will end soon, but it's hard to tell

  • Watching out for older folks who are more susceptible to virus

  • Some people are freaking out with conspiracy theories

  • Got to ride this thing out

  • Stay positive
