posting this here cause i dont wanna be socially destroyed
i really dont think mass testing will do anything for the ph tbh. if anything, its gonna make things worse. knowing how many people have the virus doesnt change the fact na we cant accomodate all of them. protocols can be adopted without having to do mass testing.
when we do start mas testing, people are just gonna panic. they wont think na 'finally we're being tested' what people will see are numbers. they're gonna see the number go higher than before and think that its getting worse. people are gonna discriminate against areas that have high cases and more extreme measures like roads being blocked by residents will happen. then people will be scared to be tested because people will get mad at them. tension will be at an all time high and its going to be harder to deal with people because they're panicking. areas with low cases on the other hand will be complacent. they wont follow protocols and the virus will probably flare up in their area.
well at least that's my prediction. probably thinking too negatively but i think that people aren't grounding their thoughts much in reality?
