(Eagle News) — Amid the rising cases of the coronavirus disease worldwide, people in the midst of the crisis are trying to stay positive amid the outbreak.

In Luxembourg, virus cases have risen to 140.  These photos show an empty office cafeteria there.

The once bustling food center has empty chairs and tables.  Food are packed individually as lunches or snacks, ready just for pick-up by customers to reduce personal contact and prevent virus spread.

Hand sanitizers are available on a table, complete with a sign that reminds the users:  “Don’t take the bottle with you!”
