Too Little, Too Late
A Texas man who died of COVID 19 admitted on his death bed that he was wrong for considering the virus a hoax. The hospital where he died said the fellow admitted to attending a COVID party, a gathering where individuals are exposed to the disease to see if it exists. It is hard to grieve for an individual who showed gullibility and stupidity. Yet, there are millions like him today. They mass on beaches, boardwalks and in malls without protection and dare the sickness to claim them. What publicity is needed to persuade them to take precautions? It seems nothing will make a difference. People are tired of restraining themselves as they had been doing for three months. Even testimony from deceased victims is not enough. This reminds one of anti-smoking advertisements in which haggard, gray-skinned individuals said they were dying from cancer. They were horrifying to those who did not smoke, to smokers less so. The virus is raging, yet people continue to think magically that they are not going to be infected with it.
