It absolutely is- doctors, scientists have been warning about it from the beginning, including ones who strongly supported lockdown. Trivializing it as "your personal psychological issues"- yes that's very unsympathetic. And it also betrays ignorance, you can't just treat mental health issues with a beer.
- carapace 6y agoDo you think a phobia of cats is caused by cats? You have to realize that virus-causes-death and lockdown-causes-anxiety attacks are two different kinds of "cause". I mean, on some level they're both just cells malfunctioning, eh? But these two orders of causality are not the same. > you can't just treat mental health issues with a beer. First of all, yes you jolly well can. Second, the cure for anxiety attacks may not be beer but it surely is not "break quarantine". That just transfers the anxiety onto the vulnerable. It's a B.S. argument founded in myopic selfishness.
