Didn't Get Covid?

Even as Covid-19 cases are still soaring worldwide, much of the world is determined to return to near normalcy. In fact, it has been said that it is just like a “waiting game” before you or anyone close to you catch the virus. 

However, if you have not caught the virus yet, a physician has come out to say that is probably because you have no friends! 

Dr. Ma Sang-Hyuk (near right) makes the claim on Facebook when the daily reported number of Covid-19 in South Korea exceeded 400,000. Not only that but the number of critical cases and deaths are also skyrocketing. 

The Facebook post, however, has since been deleted after sparking controversy and debate among his fellow citizens. 

Sang-Hyuk, who is also the Vice President of the Korean Vaccine Society said that the government should put more effort into treating the virus especially given that the Omicron variant is dominating the entire country. And he further clarified that his “interpersonal problems” remark was simply a metaphor to show it is impossible for people to NOT contract the virus.

Boo-hoo, I’m distraught because I’ve just learned that I have no friends! 

Just so you know, according to News 18, 86.6% of the South Korean population is fully vaccinated while 63.2% of the population have received their booster jabs. In Malaysia, it is 79% and 47.7% respectively as of March 24, 2022.
