This attitude blows my mind. There have been comments on HN, and for that matter by people I actually know, that covid isn't a problem because only a few people have it (heard that less than 2 weeks ago, just 1 day before UK lockdown started).It's as if they cannot see the future and they literally have to crash into something before they acknowledge it exists. That kind of blindness will kill a lot of people. I just don't understand it.
