The easiest way to get an entire world addicted to gambling: a global pandemic

We have been exposed to a pandemic where we have been deprived of a basic human need (social interaction) for a grossly extended period of time (due to human studpidity but also that is human nature).

Now, we have been offered this vaccine: it’s not 100% effective, and even less so because a considerable portion of the population remains unvaccinated. However, it has lessened the risks… and the restrictions on our basic human need (again, social interaction).

Here’s the catch: the restrictions are lifted, BUT you must exercise caution and restraint (along with your own judgement) in order to safely regain the need without sending everyone back to having it taken away again.

You interact with one person. You wait. Nothing happens. You are proud of yourself for making a good decision and happy you are not sick, and you got what you want.

You meet up with a small group. Same thing. Maybe you wait 10 days instead of 14. (It’s still a recommended quarantine period!) You’re not sick. Endorphins. You did it again.

You go out to eat. You’re not sick. You go to the mall. You’re not sick. You go to the salon. You’re not sick.

All of these little risks you make on a day to day basis is building up, but you ignore the people that aren’t getting the good news, the people who got their bluff called. And every time you ignore another person leaving the table because they’re all out of money, you’re increasing the risk that you’ll be the next one to leave.

Just some food for thought…
