To the editor:

It’s a shame the opponents of President Donald Trump have chosen to exploit the coronavirus for political purposes.

I believe that politicizing has actually been reduced during this outbreak. Even Fox News has lessened it's diatribes in favor of (somewhat) informative pieces on this coronavirus. As for the criticism Trump receives, most of it has been for doing exactly the opposite of what this opinion piece suggests we do, which is listen to health officials and medical experts. Some things a state or small community can't handle on its own. This virus is one of them. A president should be aware of this, and so should we. Remember, we're in this together whether we like it or not. Oh, and wash your hands.
