[Abeamus]

I used to think that most of the world was just not well informed but i'm starting to think most people are just flat out stupid

 

[Ahsoka]

Oh boy so many stories to answer to

I mean... I'm more scared of how stupid some people are than I am from the virus itself

Some people were acting like the virus wasnt scary and was easy to control but I dont think they factored in the human stupidity dangers in

Ah and since we are talking about stupidity...

someone in my country called the emergency number saying he might have coronavirus... it was a prank, he just wanted to see how it is inside the isolation thing...

someone in Australia got a knife to fight over toilet paper

In Oregon the police had to put up a notice saying not to call 911 if people ran out of toilet paper because it was actually happening.

let's not forget that in some religions people kiss the statues or pictures in the church... lately I heard that they are not allowed to, put there were churches saying that the virus will affect only human institutions and church is not human

I think stuff like this makes people convert to atheism

maybe this pandemic will make humans evolve and come out wiser..

I wouldnt hold my breath

Some people aren't thinking straight, but when I am often paranoid I am the same.
Not to say what they did is excusable at all.

I see an ugly in this corona virus and it isn't the virus.

A new cluster of coronavirus has emerged at a church in South Korea after members used a saltwater spray -- which they believed prevented the spread of the virus -- but used the same spray bottle on members without properly disinfecting the nozzle, health officials acknowledged Monday.

Officials in the city of Seongnam, located in the Gyeonggi Province south of Seoul, said 40 additional members of the River of Grace Community Church have tested positive for COVID-19 after six members, including the pastor and his wife, were confirmed in the past week to have the virus.

All of those infected may have attended the same service on March 8, according to the Yonhap News Agency.

Video images released from the protestant church show a church member sticking the nozzle of the spray bottle into several church members.

“It’s been confirmed that they put the nozzle of the spray bottle inside the mouth of a follower, who was later confirmed as a patient, before they did likewise for other followers as well without disinfecting the sprayer,” said Lee Hee-young, head of Gyeonggi Province’s Covid-19 task force, according to the South China Morning Post.

At least 46 people at the church have tested positive for coronavirus. (Handout)
“This made it inevitable for the virus to spread,” he added. “They did so out of the false belief that saltwater kills the virus.”

The city's government has since tested all of the church's 135 followers, including about 90 who attended the service on March 8, Yonhap reported.

The church's pastor, identified only as Kim, apologized for the mass infection of his church members in a phone interview with Yonhap News Agency, adding that he intends to retire after the crisis is over.

There are still worries that infections might surge again from those returning from Europe or from local people who are reportedly resuming attending gatherings like church services. There have been calls for authorities to further postpone the new school year, which was to begin on March 23 after two rounds of delays.

South Korean Prime Minister Chung Se-kyun said the country’s decline in cases is a “hopeful sign” but urged caution over widening outbreaks across Europe and the United States.

Chung said South Korea should “never loosen its guard.”
