ME AND YOU: NOT ALL SHOPPING AND ACTIVITIES ARE ESSENTIAL AT THAT MOMENT

Think before going out – do I really need [insert whatever you are thinking] at this very moment?

THANK YOU to all of you emailing me to express the same frustration. I share your concern. 

WE ALL MUST TAKE THIS MORE SERIOUSLY

YOUR SACRIFICE OF STAYING HOME WILL SAVE A LIFE AND OUR NATION.


A CALL TO ESSENTIAL BUSINESSES
