To understand why people in India were so careless:

Millennials invent a word for every recent phenomenon. For instance, individuals who ignore
government instructions of staying at home and practicing social distancing to curb Coronavirus
or people who have hoarded food, thereby causing food shortage across the world, have been
called 'covidiots' by the netizens
psychologists and sociologists claim several factors are responsible for such
cavalier behavior, which shows an utter disregard towards public health safety, and a complete
lack of social responsibility. According to them, some factors that make people act in such a
careless manner are social conditioning, lack of faith in the healthcare system, botched-up
messaging from the government about COVID-19, lack of historicity, and the absence of a
scientific approach
