For starters, those who are keeping up with their self-isolation in order to curb the spread of this pandemic.
You  are doing admirably. I know it's tough - even I'm going stir-crazy  knowing that I am resigned to just this house and going grocery foraging  - something I have only done twice since lockdown began almost 4 weeks  ago.

My flatmate... less tolerable of the situation. The  advantage I have is that I can continue to busy myself right here on my  computer, but a lot of what she did, work, social interactions... well,  it's getting to her.
So I know that some of us are dealing  with the isolation better than others, and those others may be falling  apart entirely. Some of us might be caught in-between.
But  seriously, the sooner this passes, the sooner things go back to at least  some level of normality - I for one am waiting for that day.

To  those completely and knowingly flouting lockdown rules, and not giving a  damn about what happens to everyone else and by extension, the rest of  the country (based on Aotearoa New Zealand, though also to other  nations/states with a similar rule in place).

Complete disregard to how important this is in order to get everything back to  normality as soon as possible, because you believe you are above  everyone else, self-exempt, think this is just a "threat to democracy"  and thus ignore it in protest, or just want to prolong lockdown in order  to stay off work longer, are either ignorant, or don't give a single  damn to anyone or the nation. Some of you are even spitting or coughing  on people on purpose, claiming you are going to take as many people down  with you, and whether the threat you pose is real, or if you think you  are being funny, it is actually an act of terrorism, and you are using  the pathogen as a biological weapon.
Given that you cannot  control how a pathogen spreads on this level, nor how many lives it  affects or takes, you are knowingly doing so, anyway, which is seriously  evil and a threat to the stability and security of not only a nation,  but to the heath and well-being of humanity as a whole.

Or maybe you lot think it's fun to be supervillain for a month and it is  all harmless fun, coughing on people, and inadvertently causing the  deaths of someone else's loved one. Maybe you believe it isn't your  problem, because you don't know the people.
So just consider your worth as a human being, then.

Because  seriously. I want out of this. But if we don't all do our part in  coordinating our efforts as a united people, the broken links in our  chain will cause the whole thing to come crashing down.

This is seriously important. And if any of us want to see our lives return to normal, it takes all of us.

We  are at war against a common enemy, and the enemy doesn't care who you  are, has no sympathy, and will use you if you decide to let it.
