if not keeping a 2m distance if going to get us killed, then I guess many would not have a problem with keeping the 2m distance. Ultimately it is all about survival.
Relax dude, it is a pandemic, we have enough data which tells us how contagious it is, and what needs to be done to control the spread. It's going to pass, here in India, we have opened up almost all zones where there are no cases, and activity is almost back to normal.
Contagiousness is different than mortality. It seems quite contagious, but low mortality. But I am not in India right now - I am in the US where hysteria is everywhere and they are talking about continuing lockdowns for months longer, or basically indefinitely.
Mortality rate for the coronavirus is about 0.3% - the flu is about 0.002%. These are not comparable numbers. For every person who catches the flu and dies from it, 150 people who catch the coronavirus would die.
This is with the best treatment we can afford given the current contagion rate - if more people were infected, we could not afford treatment for them, and the mortality rate would climb.
indeed contagiousness is different from mortality, but think of it like this, if more humans are infected at the same time, it'll overload the hospital capacities,
this will
1- make it impossible to ensure proper care, since the hospitals will be overwhelmed.
2- also impact patients who require treatments for other illnesses, since systems will be busy and overloaded with the covid-19 patients.
