discuss Why most people are in denial for Covid-19?

[Ostrados]

Surprisingly 90% of people I meet deny that we are in a middle of a pandemic! They either claim that the numbers are exaggerated and fabricated, or that it is not dangerous and just a flu, or that we are being lied to. The odd thing is that these ignorant claims were dominant at the beginning of the virus outbreak, then people became more aware and took it seriously and they were wearing masks and avoid gathering, but after 3 months everything was reveresed: people stopped wearing masks, gatherings returned and the ignorant claims mentioned above came back. Today I asked a supermarket owner why at the beginning of the pandemic you were wearing a mask and now not? He literally said to me "I was not convinced about this pandemic back then and not convinced now"

It seems that people just got bored and tired and just want to close their eyes and pretend that everything is fine to get back to normal life.

I am with reopening everything and going back to normal life, but we should do that responsibly by doing at least the bare minimum to slow down the virus spread. Recent studies showed that wearing a mask is a very effective measure, is that too much to ask? Or is it a torturous thing to do? Just put on a mask for God sake!

Two hairstylists who had coronavirus saw 140 clients. No new infections have been linked to the salon
Both stylists worked at the same Great Clips location in Springfield. The clients and the stylists all wore face coverings, and the salon had set up other measures such as social distancing of chairs

"This is exciting news about the value of masking to prevent Covid-19," said Clay Goddard, the county's director of health.

Now restaurants are full of people with nobody wearing mask even waiters! And boom we are in a second virus outbreak wave already and it is not even autmn yet! All of that because of the number one most irritating thing in life which is "ignorance".

In Bangladesh, Police gives a fine of around $100 if they find someone not wearing mask in the public. So people here are at least afraid of fine.

People don’t see things as valid until it impacts them. On the other hand, no one wants to live closed off or in fear indefinitely.

How many people do you know with COVID? Me not a one. Most people are more concerned with what this has done to their job, business and finances.

Many people are wise to the scam being played on the populous and more acutely aware that:

92% of all causes of deaths fall in these categories:

1. Heart Disease
2. Cancer
3. Doctor Mistakes (Iatrogenesis)

And these wise people are eating organic food, never microwaving their food, not drinking soda, not going to McDonalds - and overall have the ability to reason for themselves like humans whose critical thinking skills function properly.

1.bad things happened on others means nothing to me.
2.all can not be seen by me are fake.
3.i am surely smarter and stronger than those got sick.

 

[noneisnone]

denying the existing of the virus is silly
but it was exaggerated by the media and governments for sure no one can argue that
also allot of fake information got put out there by the media

I don't believe it was a conspiracy but sadly from my personal experience some governments are using the epidemic to do things they want to do long ago but were unable to in my country allot of people in the government opposition were arrested during the lock down the people and the media were too busy with covid to cover there stories allot of third world countries are doing this right now to clean "house"

Thank you for sharing.

In China, herbal formulas became mandatory once the success was obvious.

Good info presented by this doctor.

Defense law or law of emergency w.e your country call it is something every human being should stand against and corona shouldn't be an excuse to hand in our rights

Don't let them fear monger successfully

If you believe everything the government tells you, I have many bridges for sale.

I'm guilty of this. At the start I was so scared and wore a mask and hand sanitized... then in June I stopped hand sanitizing as much and didn't wear a mask.

But... then someone at work got the corona..... and now I'm going to be on semi-high alert. But tbh. I feel like it's fruitless. If someone in proximity has the coronavirus, no mask will stop it if they breathe into your face... Just saying.

Do you remember 2008 and 750 billion? Occupy Wall Street etc. stood against it. Well, how to issue even more money that will get back to you as you will give it as a debt? It is simple, create new coronavirus, spread it globally, and instruct media what they should be reporting. The result? You get several trillions without protesting. That is the real reason of all this.

Google Event 201. Too many coincidences with the current state to be only a coincidence. Event 201 is just one of many proofs that all this is planned.

This virus is dangerous, but not as much as they are telling us. Of course, for some people it could be deadly and we all should be careful and try to stay healthy. However, this virus and the whole situation was planned.

It is not about you it is about others, thinking about yourself only is selfish, please think about vulnerable people who died and will die.. governments put covid-19 regulations to protect these people. Is it too much to ask to wear a mask to protect these categories you mentioned from death?! Is it a big sacrifice to you?

Moreover, there are numerous reports about perfectly healthy people drying from Covid-19, one case was a perfectly healthy man in the 20s that died from it within 2 days in the UK, most probably because the virus causes blood clots! Another case was a body builder in the 30's that never smoked that also died from the virus. Also there was a tragic case of a perfectly healthy 16-years old child that suddenly died from Covid.

In addition to the above, even with perfectly healthy people that recover from Covid there are many cases were patients do not go back to normal even after 3-4 months. Some studies show that covid-19 has long term complications and that Crovonairus can cause lasting lung damage that can take long time to recover or even can be irreversible damage in sever cases. Now tell me that not eating McDonalds will protect you from that!

Although I partly agree with that, but this is a global epidemic that is not specific to a country or another. For example what is the benefit of Covid-19 for imposing dictatorship regulations for the countries that already have dictatorship system! Think about it.

Simple fear mongering the average person would give two shits about laws being broken by his own government if it is listed under "emergency law" due to the government trying to "protect" the citizen

2 billion dollar loan the government took this week with no reports why and where it is going and even arrested a guy for posting a video on facebook about it under the flag of "fighting corona"

before corona such actions would cause protests now people are too scared to go against the government in anyway shape or form and if you question it you are deemed crazy and not looking out for the best interest

Conspiracy, planned one, Govt taking control that's all different subject. This thread isn't about our action on preventing Covid 19 by wearing mask and being responsible not just for yourself but also by saving your family & friend by not being a Covid transmitter.

Again about argument, mask not effective "if they breathe into your face", same apply to seat belt in car, what if a large truck ran over your car, do seat Belt saves you? Then why wear it? becoz it saves you in many other situation. In gambling/ stock market/ risk management/ permutation & combination, you make you bet which have high chance for you to win than the chance to loss. Wearing mask reduce your risk of covid 19 infection, which is far better than chance of catching virus without Mask.

There are 2 separate things:

1. Is the pandemic real?
2. Is the pandemic planned?

We must agree that:

• #1 is true regardless of #2 true or false.
• If #2 is true then #1 is also true => you must wear a mask either way

Exactly! problem is that bad counter arguments are used all the time as an excuse of not wearing a mask.
Wearing a mask will not protect you by 100% but it reduces the risk by at least 80% which means infection rate will be dramatically reduced if everyone wears a mask. If the infection rate goes lower than < 1 then the virus will end in less than a month global, which means if all people respected the regulations then the epidemic should have been ended by mid of May.

We see protests going on in the US and other parts in the world normally, Covid didn't prevent people from practicing their rights.

If I chose a conspiracy theory then the only one that makes sense to me is that the whole purpose of this is to collapse the global economy maybe in an attempt to reshape it in an new world order economy?

You'll know by seeing who came out on top, financial-wise. Ecckkyy taught me a lot about the world and money and even when I thought money wasn't involved... he was right and money was involved :O.

So if it really is a conspiracy for money, then you'll know exactly who's behind it when you see who came out on top. China was hit hard, so it's not China.

Can't tell anyone what to do people will do what ever they like regardless of warnings only deterrent is fine.
