“Honestly, I’m not. It’s been around for a minute, so it’s just like the flu so I’m not really worried. I definitely wash my hands more, I was them all the time now. I don’t want to catch it.” - Jalen Gordon | Sports Medicine Major

“I’m not to worried about it anymore. I was worried at first because me and my partner both have compromised immune systems. I think that we are going to be fine at this age.” - Nicole Howard | Undeclared Major
“Yeah, I’m worried. It hasn’t really affected people our age, but it is still a major outbreak. I think moving classes online is smart. I have three bottles of hand sanitizer.” -Demarco Hawthorne | Kinesiology Major
“No, I’m not worried about it. I work EMS (Emergency Medical Services), so you just need to practice safe techniques and wash your hands, and you’ll be good.” - Danny Rogers | Nursing Major
“I am kind of worried about the coronavirus because it is spreading. If the school does get shut down, I hope it gets deep cleaned. I still wash my hands as usual.” - Rebecca Littke | Art Major
“Yes and no. I think we all should be worried about our health, but I think it should be an everyday thing. I don’t think we should only worry about it when something like this happens. I wash my hands more, but it hasn’t really changed anything else I do within my daily life.” - Anthony Armas | Fire Technology Major
