7 types of people who piss off during the coronavirus epidemic

1. Violators of quarantine

Self-isolation is one of the most effective measures to prevent infection. It is necessary so as not to get infected yourself and, if you are already sick, not to infect others.

So that as many people as possible could sit at home, many companies even before the announcement of a non-working week released employees to work remotely, and various services began to provide discounts on films, books and training courses. Sit quietly, work, watch TV shows or read something exciting in your free time - it would seem nothing complicated, you can literally save humanity without getting up from the couch.

But there are those who continue to walk the streets as if nothing had happened and use public transport without urgent need. The non-working week, which was announced in order to stop the spread of the virus, was perceived by such comrades as an extraordinary vacation: they began to massively book hotels in Sochi, go on a visit, and gather in companies for barbecue. And this despite the fact that in Russia there are already more than a thousand infected and their number is growing quite rapidly - not without the participation of those who do not care about warnings, requests and common sense.

Now it is especially important to be responsible in relation to yourself and those around you. If you don't have to go outside (work, going to the doctor or the grocery store), you should stay at home. The lives and health of many people depend on this.

2. Coronavirus dissidents

You've probably already heard about HIV dissidents. They believe that the disease does not exist, it was invented by bad doctors and pharmaceutical corporations in order to poison everyone with toxic drugs. The coronavirus infection has already acquired its own mythology.

There are people who shout that nothing terrible is happening, the infection is not worse than a cold, and the drug manufacturers threw all the excitement in order to sell more pills, and then sell the vaccine to everyone at a high price. There are even conspiracy theorists who believe that there is no coronavirus at all, but Donald Trump, for example, invented it in order to destabilize the political situation in the world.

This all might seem funny, if not for the alarming rate of spread of COVID-19. Those who claim that there is no virus and that it is worth relaxing are contributing to the growing chaos. After all, other people can listen to them and decide that they can not observe self-isolation, not disinfect their hands and not go to the doctor if the temperature rises.

3. Alarmists

Such people are terribly worried and aggravate an already alarming situation. For example, they send fake scarecrows about the coronavirus in messengers (by the way, a fine of up to 100 thousand rubles can be imposed for this). Or they say without proof that everything is bad, we will all die, the government is hiding from us the real number of deaths. And in general, it's time to lock yourself in a bunker and prepare for a full-fledged apocalypse. Previously, of course, buying buckwheat, stew and toilet paper.

By the way, about buckwheat. It is precisely the alarmists who buy up products in hundreds of hundreds, arrange queues in stores and leave behind ominously empty shelves, completely oblivious to others. As if this is the last food in the world, and if you do not get a full cart, then they will starve to death.

Yes, the situation is not easy, but spoiling the mood of others by sending inaccurate information and creating a shortage is a bad idea.

4. Blasers

That is, those who do not care about their health and do not go to the doctor, even if they have symptoms of coronavirus infection. Some even show up in public places or even run away from hospitals with a diagnosis of coronavirus infection.

Yes, many organizations have installed thermal imagers at the entrance or have begun to measure the temperature of employees with infrared thermometers, but the saboteur, who has previously drunk antipyretic agents, cannot be identified in this way. As well as those who have no fever for various reasons, but have other symptoms.

It is simply necessary to consult a doctor at the first signs of the disease. It is about taking care of your health and the health of the people with whom you communicate. When signs of ARVI appear, the Ministry of Health recommends calling a doctor at home and minimizing contact with other people.

5. Opponents of removal

We are talking about managers who do not let employees go home, even if people could technically work remotely. The reasons may vary. But mostly it is the fear that productivity may drop and the situation will be difficult to control.

All these fears and difficulties can be understood, but in a pandemic, transferring employees to remote work is a necessary measure. If people stay at home and do not contact each other, the spread of the virus can be stopped.

6. Exploiters

In his speech, the president said that during the quarantine, people should be allowed to go home with pay. But some executives force employees to apply for unpaid leave. Or they even force them to resign of their own accord, just to save their own money.

Fortunately, there are those who help people who have been left without work, for example, they open new jobs during the epidemic.

7. Scammers

There is no such misfortune on which someone does not seek to cash in. Sometimes these are petty scammers who are trying to sell tests for the diagnosis of COVID-19 or even vaccines (of course, fake: the real ones have not yet been developed). Sometimes there are large pharmaceutical companies that claim without proof that their drug cures coronavirus infection. Sometimes - sellers who inflate the prices of medical masks, antiseptics and other goods in demand during the epidemic dozens of times. Or resellers who took it all at regular prices and then sell it at exorbitant prices on the Internet.

Of course, no amount of articles will make such people realize that they are acting despicably. But if you go to the doctors on time, do not panic and carefully study the information on the treatment of infection, deceivers and swindlers can be left without earnings.
