The chief health officer of New South Wales, Australia, told a reporter that in order to prevent the spread of COVID-19, citizens should avoid talking to each other.
“Whilst it’s human nature to engage in conversation with others — to be friendly — unfortunately this is not the time to do that,” Dr. Kerry Chant said.
“So even if you run into your next-door neighbor in the shopping center … don’t start up a conversation,” Chant continued. “Now is the time for minimizing your interactions with others. Even if you’ve got a mask, do not think that affords total protection. We want to be absolutely sure that as we go about our daily lives we do not come into contact with anyone else that would pose a risk.”
