What are the lessons that could be learnt from working at the COVID-19 quarantine zones?

Doctor's Answer

I think it’s a summary of what everyone has said. Ultimately it’s this, this is real, and had I not gone to help in the factory-converted dorms, it would have never hit me. I would just be sitting at home, I’ll be bored, I’ll just be waiting for this 1st of June (4th of May), and say when is it all going to be over. But having been with everyone at the frontlines, I think what we are all concerned about is what’s going to happen on the 1st of June. If people don’t take this seriously -- what Badrun said, doesn’t matter what colour you are (and what race), we are all brothers. And (if) you are going to stand really close to the guy beside you, and you’re not going to wear a mask, this is going to get really bad really fast. Hopefully, there is some way that we can convey this message to everyone else who doesn’t have the privilege of helping out at the frontlines -- that this is a very serious issue and on the 1st of June if you don’t stick to the rules, then it’s going to get bad really fast again.
