This so-called Coronavirus (COVID-19) was indeed a scary virus that shocked the world. Now, it spreads worldwide and some countries have already issued travel bans that affect the work of our fellow Overseas Filipino Workers (OFW) who cannot travel back to work abroad to sustain the needs of their families (financial support). I myself is an OFW and working here in Hong Kong with my family and honestly, we are very worried about the situation. Both work and health are affected in this kind of virus outbreak.
The big question is should we give up and accept defeat of this coronavirus? Hell shit no! Filipinos are known for being tough to face the challenges of life. We will do our best even to sacrifice our own lives just to provide a better future for our families. Even OFWs who are still stranded in the Philippines and cannot come to work here in Hong Kong because of this travel ban, still persist to come back and work on which they know that they can provide more if they work abroad instead of working locally in the Philippines. It is sad to hear but this is the reality we are facing now. This is the reason why I am very proud of being a Filipino! Filipinos are indeed fighters of life and will sacrifice everything just for the sake of their families and love ones.
Some tips to fight this shit virus while working at home. Hope it helps!
Always wash hands before and after eating

Always pray to God
Always pray to God for guidance, help, blessings, and for us to be safe and defeat this virus. Sometimes, we are so busy at work and we forgot to pray and give thanks to God for what we have accomplished or gain and this is not an excuse. Always give thanks and pray to God because without Him, we are nothing. Pray to God to help all the doctors and nurses who are fighting this monster virus and for them to discover the right cure for this.
