Coronavirus diaries are helping people cope. They’re also a research gold mine

Just weeks ago, Jason Kirin, a circus performer in Pittsburgh, was juggling flaming spheres for Facebook Live, trying to make the most of the coronavirus crisis after it had led to the cancellation of all his spring shows.
Days later, Kirin got sick. He turned to one of the few outlets that kept him sane: his online diary.
Day 1 Sat 3.21: I started to get aches and pains I wasn’t used to. Joints mostly. Things started to ache in weird ways…. These pains were not in any way normal.
Day 2 Sun 3.22: Same.
