As the COVID-19 rages on, it seems that people can be fit into those willing to heed the warning of the medical experts, and do they can to prevent the spread of the decease as much as possible. Meanwhile, others seem to ignore all efforts to defeat the virus because they are inconvenienced by those efforts.
It seems that for the second group of people, their rights are all what matters and everyone else should act according not for what is needed, but for what they want to do. It seems that they cannot see beyond what they want now, in order to prevent the spreading of a decease that has proven to be deadly.
The idea that the lock downs, social distancing, and wearing mask is to prevent as many people possible from getting COVID-19 to begin is something those people don't seem to understand. People will get it, and some will lose their lives to the virus, but all the measures put into effect are meant to make them as few as possible. If all those measures are follow, also means that they can be lifted sooner since the virus will be control in a shorter period of time.
What make things worse, is we all have access to all the information needed to know why the measures are put into place work, and how they work. Yet, some choose to ignore them, all call them lies. As is by calling them lies will actually make them lies.
It would be foolish not to admit that there has been some mismanagement, and that there is misinformation being spread in social media and news outlets. But, those are not valid excuses not to do what we can to help combat COVID-19 and actually do some effort to look the information that is useful and sharing with those around us.
The more we do to flatten the curve of the spread of the virus, the sooner we all are going to be able to return to the lives we want.
