Thanks [@mention:308523583285396643] - I recently came across this webcast from McGill University about managing anxiety during a pandemic.

Experts answer the questions: How can we cope with the stress of COVID-19? What are the psychological and physical effects of sustained fear and worry? What concrete steps can we take to lessen fear and anxiety for ourselves and our children?
