It seems like every day we get new information and new recommendations for what the best course of action is for dealing with and preventing the spread of Coronavirus, or COVID-19. One of the most important ways that everyone can do their part is to self-isolate and practice social distancing — essentially, avoiding situations with crowds or large groups and keeping to yourself whenever possible.
Singer Lady Gaga is taking this advice very seriously.

In a series of posts on her Instagram, Gaga shared just how seriously. She wrote, “So I talked to some doctors and scientists. It’s not the easiest for everyone right now but the kindest/healthiest thing we can do is self-quarantine and not hang out with people over 65 and in large groups.”
“I wish I could see my parents and grandmas right now, but it’s much safer to not so I don’t get them sick in case I have it.”

“I’m hanging at home with my dogs. I love you world, we’ll all get through this,” she wrote. “Trust me, I talked to God — she said we’re gonna be ok.”
In another post, Gaga shared that “This is reminding I think a lot of us what it is to both feel like and be a human being.”

“I think it’s so important to acknowledge that we are and must be a global kind singular community. We can’t do this without kindness,” she shared.
“And corona virus is not prejudiced.”

“My thought for the day is to accept there will be times we feel powerless and out of control—but we can fill that space with kindness and be a part of the solution to a world problem,” she continued.
“We then have control.”

“We can create healing by learning how to be kind and take care of each other and ourselves during this time,” she finished.
This seems like great advice, and it’s awesome to see celebrities setting great examples for the good of public health!
