here I think people have a phobia with masks being hiding away or something like that as you say given the choice I will wear a mask
I never was impacted much by SARS fortunately, but I think this one is going to lead to many changes around the world
Only a handful of countries were affected by SARS, that's why places like Hong Kong and Taiwan reacted a lot quicker when Coronavirus started. Most of the world wasn't aware of this in January. and those who were, played down this as another flu. By the time people around the world were aware of how serious this was, and wanted to buy hand sanitizer and face masks, everything had been snapped up by people from a certain country a month ago. People had no chance to protect themselves at all.
Anyway,this is definitely a wake up call for everyone to reassess everything around them.
That makes sense People from that region had learned the lesson from their SARS experience
Lets hope the end result of this is a more caring and better world
