Why won't people take COVID-19 seriously?
I mean, what is it going to take? What really burns me up is how people have the audacity to mock and harass us healthcare workers, like we are the ones who are responsible for putting you on lockdown 🙄.

They are cowards and fools.
I wonder some of the most stridently mocking and harassing - and worse, the idiots who physically attack the health and emergency-services staff - are actually very frightened of the disease. So they try to hide their fear behind a warped, false bravado, but then let that consume them to the point of losing self-control.
Or, perhaps out of the same fear and bravado, are so frustrated by the restrictions most of us are able to tolerate that they have brainwashed themselves into believing even the health services are their enemies.
Others may simply have chosen anyway to be antisocial, selfish, foolish cowards with no respect for themselves, let alone anyone else.

@ArishMell Good point. I think it is probably a combination of those things for people, which has caused people to start lashing out.
