Isolation

You're immune system needs exercise, ideasly a daily one hour walk. It also needs some contact with other humans and a bit of lightheartedness to generate oxytocin. And for Covid sunlight, or Vit D. So I would advocate getting out to stay healthy. It's pretty difficult to catch Covid out of doors, even passing close to people, it's about avoiding standing near someone and having their breath close to yours for an extended period. Not reading the papers is good as stress suppresses the immune system. You need to stay healthy to combat all the other health problems that can come our way.

I am going out today.  The snow has mostly melted, a few weeks ago I had a bad fall on slippery ice.

I need to buy fresh milk and empty my rubbish in the communal rubbish bins.

My main reason for avoiding the online news is that most of it is speculation and contributory.  And it does increase my stress levels.

Yeah, the news is all out doing each other with speculation. It's not informing people wisely. I do my best to avoid getting caught up in it as it distracts me from more important things, and disturbs my serenity, but i do get caught reading it.
