What can be done?

The Corona Pandemic has taken over the world, and several people have succumbed to the effects of the virus. World governments are on their toes, searching for cures, but it has been up to no avail yet. In a time of crisis like this, the responsibility of dealing with the virus comes on our shoulders. The least we can do is distance ourselves from gatherings and wash our hands regularly.

Hollywood prays for Elba and others who are fighting with the virus.
