Abstract

Description

In this interview, Participant 44 shares that life has remained mostly normal, and that they have been relying on newspapers, online articles, and their doctor to keep up with information about COVID. They share that food distribution was an act of kindness for them, and that they supported by delivering food to other community members. The participant shares that they were tested for COVID-19 several times, and followed COVID-19 protocols. They express disappointment about the delay in response to COVID-19, and that New Jersey's efforts not have been consistent but that they did as much as other states. The participant hopes that a vaccine will be available to end the pandemic.
