come on

What we are living through now is undoubtedly horrible,
But I still choose to be optimistic
With a pandemic the likes of which hasn’t been seen in more than 100 years

EVERYTHING WILL BE OK!!!

It could chug along, perhaps eventually becoming more like the seasonal flu
这可能是场持久战
可能最终演化成类似季节性流感的疾病
I believe this day won’t be long
相信这一天不会太久
