>So no disregarding safety concerns and getting into an unsafe situation really is sociopathic behavior. Roughly half the US population acted exactly this way during the COVID-19 pandemic: refusing to wear masks or get vaccinations despite expert recommendations at the time. There's no way that half of a large population is sociopathic; they're just stubborn fools. |

70+ year olds where vastly more likely to get vaccinated and use masks etc. https://usafacts.org/visualizations/covid-vaccine-tracker-st...
Younger people to it less seriously, but they also had vastly lower risks. In the US below 9,000 people under the age of 30 died out of 1.1 million and of those many had significant health issues. https://www.statista.com/statistics/1191568/reported-deaths-...
You shouldn’t expect those groups to react the same when one is facing 100x the risk of the other.
