Whatever happened to safety measures?

Given the way people are roaming around these days, it is as if everyone is suddenly immune to the coronavirus and all the warnings seem to be falling on deaf ears. On one hand, we are complaining that the authorities are not taking enough measures to curb the crisis, and on the other, we are not abiding by the rules. When I left my house recently, I was shocked to see several groups of people without any safety precautions. There was even a group of teenagers sharing a smoke! I hope we take safety more seriously, especially as winter is approaching and the chances of the infection spreading is higher than ever.
