Going viral can actually help. Take for example this photo of an elderly woman legs vanished in the waist high as the flood waters overwhelmed a  La Vita Bella Nursing Home in Dickinson Texas due to Hurricane Harvey in August. The owners of the living center posted it to Twitter asking for help. Rescue teams answered with air lifts. It was one of the many ways people harnessed the power of social media after disaster hit this year.
