They have travel insurance. Sorry should have clarified. Travel insurance only covers emergencies though so trying to get them a proper insurance which gets them an internal med doctor for regular checkups.

It’s hard to be motivated when rounds of layoffs happen and you see all your friends leave. But one thing that’s gotten me through all of this is working out.

I’ve somehow forced myself to move while on lockdown and it’s somehow forced me to feel better. Whatever you’re doing, wherever you are: get up and move even if you don’t finish or end up going on a walk. Pls take care of yourself❤️
