How are you living the quarantine: fears and dreams?

Let me say that here in HK the situation hasn’t been so bad as in China and Europe. The quarantine has never been applied, yet. Everyone here usually wears a mask when is not feeling good to protect the people around him. When the Coronavirus news arrived from China they immediately action all action is taken from the EU government only when the situation was no longer control. This help to maintain it more stable. Since January I am doing a temperature check to get into the office and I wash my hands frequently, etc.. This allowed us to still be able to walk around and have a dinner out. On the other hand to see a city that is usually overpopulated and never sleep, now completed empty make me feel very scared. Is like in those zombie movies where they walk around an empty city waiting for something very bad to happen... Now the situation is getting worse.. many people came back home from the US, Europe and brought back the virus. Unfortunately, people out Asia believe they are immune to the virus and do not wear a mask. They don’t stay home if aren’t forced to do it. Now we all know that if we don’t respect the simple rules given to prevent the spreading of the virus we can make a disaster. Does not matter if you are Chinese or Italian, French or American.. we all are the same for a F#####G virus looking forward to killing you. My main fears are to do not be able to flight back home and see all the people I love, or living a long quarantine alone... I feel locked in a city that I love but is not the place where I want to be right now. If you cannot move you would better choose the place where you going to be stacking.
