1. Indeed face mask is must. However, we cannot simply deny that there people whom we thought as models in implementing such health protocol violated such rule. In line with this, even the concept of social distancing/physical distancing have also cause a lot of issues since people in the upper echelon have also made violations without any sanctions. In this situation clearly the problem is far worst than the pandemic, the problem is brought about by human values. Regardless of who we are, we are obliged to follow any law/rule implemented by the state.
2. Another major problem also arises, because of what we called selective implementation of such policy "face mask is must" and social/physical distancing there a people whose rights are violated. I am referring to our women, certain issues have been brought in all social medias that women have been abuse because of such policy. The problem can be rooted on the concept of gender inequality since women are looked as inferior to men, they have experienced maltreatment and abuses. Worst case scenario those people who we trusted as protectors made acts that worsened the problem for example sex in exchange for pass. There were repeated reports about the problem, regardless if it is true or not, the probability of women being abused cannot be denied. This is crucial, I am not condemning nor pointing my fingers about but the problem. My point is that we need to act on the issue of the long and dragging problem of gender inequality that wrecked havoc to the lives of our women.
3. May we take this opportunity to shed light that we should act as one in solving the covid-19 pandemic through discipline and emphasize on protecting the rights of all human beings.
