RE: Sublime Sunday - State of Emergency in Serbia
Yes, I think that people in the cities/crowded places are more prone to panic.
In short it is not the virus that worries me...it is the people.
This makes a lot of sense. People die from cancer, hunger etc. on daily bases but since it's not contagious, nobody really cares. Now it shows how primitive and selfish we really are. Stocking up food like there's no tomorrow, complaining about a lot of things and acting out of fear to save our own butts. :) There is already a lot of disconnection and lack of empathy in the world, now it might even get worse.
Funny we are, humans. But I still have hope we can and will do better. :)
Against all my own logic I absolutely share this sentiment...
Also I had not considered the disconnection and lack of empathy factor being accelerated but I think that your observation nails it.
