Madness

Lynda from Army Bay

A lot of people will disagree, but as one of the people who suffer illness and pain on a daily basis, I am so over the fear and panic out there. Supermarkets have empty shelves, doctors clinics have locked doors, chemists with a doorman, enuff! It’s a virus for goodness sake! How many people suffer with heart problems, emphsemia, cancer on a daily basis and are dying from those conditions. 28 people in a country of how many million! Come on people, stop the panic! It’s just a virus! We’ve had them before, the media is just alarming everyone. I’m in the likely range to get it, but I’m not letting it control my life. Why are New Zealanders buying into all this alarmist crap? For goodness sake just let us get on with everyday living.
