People are really weird. For conservatives, an outbreak in Wuhan was enough for them to shut down the border! However, once the virus crossed the borders, it's like, that's okay, it's just like any other flu...
For liberals, it was the exact opposite... no we don't need to be rash and shut down our borders to hurt the economy, everything is cool. China is doing a great job getting it under control! Let's praise them! Nothing to worry about yet, don't even need masks because the scientific authorities such as WHO and CDC said so..., but then eventually once we realize the severity of the situation, let's please wear mask and stay home and don't ever come out!
I wish we could be more bipartisan... or just have more common sense?
Anyway, my mom is still hesitant about getting the vaccine. So far the only deal I've made with her is let's discuss this again by the time when vaccines are available to all of us... and then perhaps all of us could get it together? I think she is genuinely afraid of the side effects as if it's gonna kill her or something. So if it's gonna kill us, let's all die together? We need to do it as a family!
