Everyone is acting in self-preservation. Everyone is on the lookout for "germs" in everyone else. At the same time, everyone is afraid that others will see them as "germs" and act in self-preservation.
Everyone is a watcher of everyone.

The virus has become a "panopticon". It is the British philosopher Bentham's idea of a one-view surveillance prison. It is a concept that became famous in the mid-20th century when the French thinker Foucault discussed it.

I feel fear, as if they had said to me, "You are unpatriotic!

We are not afraid of viruses. We are afraid of it. We are afraid of it, and our bodies freeze up.
