Sarah Hyland on Coronavirus and Dealing with Kidney Disease
"My panic level is pretty high. But I also have a lot of health issues that are very susceptible to stress, so I'm trying to remain calm." While coronavirus still poses a threat, Sarah said her game plan is to stay inside and wear a face mask and gloves when she has to go to her doctor appointments. (Also, even if you feel totally healthy, if you can stay home, stay the hell home because you don't want to unknowingly transmit the virus to someone who is immunocompromised or the elderly, who are already at a higher risk of getting sick.)” said Sarah Hyland via Cosmopolitan.
