In the USA, it's probably because they are not sick, and can't imagine becoming sick.

But I do feel as though all people who are concerned about their own health, or the health of family members with pre-existing conditions should not cluster together indoors, and they should socially distance and wear masks.

In some cases, I think we are seeing a limit to tolerance of confinement, and a limit to patience...and/or intense horniness...😉

@4meAndyou This is really disturbing. People who have spread misinformation and conspiracy theories are doing real damage. That Chinese and Russian sources are one source of the misinformation is hard to doubt. That others are passing it on (or making it up) because of conspiracy paranoia is another part of it.

A 30-year-old patient died after attending a “Covid party”, believing the virus to be a hoax, a Texas medical official has said.

“Just before the patient died, they looked at their nurse and said ‘I think I made a mistake, I thought this was a hoax, but it’s not,’” said Dr Jane Appleby, the chief medical officer at Methodist hospital in San Antonio.

@Abstraction Oh, I heard that...on the news. Unfortunately, we just can't make stupids who think they know everything believe that they, themselves...are not immortal.

For us introverts who must 'turn on' appropriate extroversion when necessary for society's sake, we have no problem with social distancing and remaining indoors. But I think I speak for many an introvert when I say we're having quite the time observing extroverts exhibit serious behavioral problems making their own adjustments - if at all.

@DudeistPriest I tend to be a bit introverted now, since my divorce, and since my good friend is at risk after chemotherapy. But I am not eating popcorn or enjoying any part of the show.

This is a real threat, and I hope people will not get sick, even if they ARE stupid.
