Hysteria has been far more damaging than the virus itself. Hysteria is what prevented many from leaving their homes and worst, what compelled others to remain at home. Those who are too afraid to face the world should be allowed to hide as long as they like, but under no circumstances should they be empowered to deny others their livelihoods. Every person who wants to work should be free too pursue that desire. That doesn’t mean that they should be guaranteed a job, just as those who wish to stay at home should have no guarantee of income.
