When the quarantine started I saw this photo of an old man in an empty store, on my phone.
This photo
really touched m, because it made me think about the situation we are in and the selfishness
of people during this crisis.
This image
touched more than others because, even though we are in a serious and stressful
situation, we can’t forget that there are other people that are in more danger
than us (for example the elderly).
Panic buying everything isn’t the solution to this even if we are in this pandemic. Panicking is just
going to turn a bad situation into a worse one, so we should just buy what we
need and not loads and loads of resources because there are other people that
need them too.
This is why
this shocked me, because it showed how some people just went crazy without
thinking of the side effects.
So, in my opinion… just buy the essential and do not
forget the other people, too, because panic won’t help resolving it.
