World of Wisdom: Social distance

from The Documentary Podcast · host BBC World Service

The pandemic has meant stopping so many of the everyday things we used to do, including not hugging and kissing others.

Gary Zukav gives his perspective that it is not the pandemic that has led to her feeling more isolated from others, but rather it is fear of what is different.
