Its easy to call the Covid restrictions BS when you never have gotten it yourself and you self assumed you would probably make through it without much harm even if you did.
The fact is without these social restrictions and face mask rules there would be a lot more people who would have contacted the virus and a lot more would have died.
A few countries such as Sweden when the virus came onto the scene never implemented social distancing restrictions or the eventual face masks wearing.
They saw their cases increase dramatically in comparison to its neighboring countries who did have these restrictions, as well the occurring deaths related to Covid .
The government realized this and eventually implemented those same restrictions.
Its pretty difficult to make decisions about matters when humans lives are at stake.
Its also pretty easy to stand on the side lines and criticize these decisions, until the responsibility lay upon your own individual hands.
Social responsibility means different things to different people so does respect and human compassion for others.
Bill Maher's argument that all the general public had to do was boost their immune system with sunshine and vitamin D, that social restrictions and mask wearing was uselessly redundant in action, comes out his own inherent ignorance of how this virus and its new variants transmit from one person to another.
