Sarah Hyland urged people to think about one another as the coronavirus is really dangerous.
The 29-year-old actress made an appearance on Wednesday’s episode of Brad Goreski‘s podcast Brad Behavior and spoke about the pandemic.
As reported by PEOPLE website, Sarah said: “I am obviously immunocompromised with my transplant history and am on immunosuppressants, so everything in this house is sanitized. I just took a shot of hand sanitizer, so we’re good.”
“Say someone gets a 24-hour bug, I get it for a week or more. For me, it’s really dangerous,” she says. “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.”
Sarah has suffered from a condition called kidney dysplasia, which means her kidneys did not develop properly when she was in the womb. Her first kidney transplant failed so she underwent a second one in 2017.
“My game plan right now is to stay home,” she continues adding that when she is forced to leave the house for existing doctor appointments, she makes sure to wear gloves and a face mask. “I’m just staying home.”
“The most annoying thing to me right now are young, healthy people who are raiding grocery stores, who are raiding pharmacies,” she says. “They’re leaving people over the age of 60, who may not have a child to do their shopping for them, left to their own devices.”
“I think it’s really an important time to practice compassion, love, generosity,” she says. “Let’s learn from something like this. We’re literally dealing with people who could die and I just think it’s really a time to come together,” she added.
In California and other areas, officials are telling people to cancel all gatherings of 250 or more people and encouraging “social distancing” measures. In New York City, public school systems will start shutting down.
