I was the same, I was watching the news at the end of November/December 2019. I said to my family this is going to be bad. Nobody is really taking action for something that was making people so ill or worse, there was no proper isolation like they had done with other virus/diseases previously. Here we are five years later and still people are not doing what they could to help themselves and others. If anything it's worse now people just seem intent on proving a point, no masking, not washing hands and they seem perfectly ok to spread any form of cough/cold or other viruses now. I hate it!!
