You imagine this kind of stuff like putting on protective gear the right way would already be established. The problem is that people just become careless as time passes. It always happens and you can be sure it'll happen again.

That we are not prepared. That we are unhygienic. That we don't treat our world right. That we don't treat each other right. That most humans are selfish and don't care how it effects others. That people are quick to panic and blame instead of doing something to help and be part of the solution. I am proud of the countries for repatriating their people. I pray for us all.
