    The Coronavirus is here in Beaufort County, but I have this one thought, and I pray that all will be receptive to it: Show some restraint in not losing one's wits or dignity, while exhibiting a generous helping of grace, and common sense in dealing with this crisis that is being blown far out of proportion relative to its danger to the general population.
