We are social animals, we like contact, human beings are wired to connect with
one other. When somebody is sick or in
trouble we usually rush to help them. This is some of our best instincts to
help our friends, our neighbors, or our family. But now the virus is using this
against us. This is how the virus spreads by using the best part of human
nature against us.
Because we understand what’s happening, we can change our
behavior in order to overcome this virus. We now understand that too much
contact can spread the epidemic. So, we stop it. We act from the head, not from
the heart. But it doesn’t change our fundamental nature. Once the crisis is
over, human nature will always be there.
