全球冠状病毒19疫情,自去年12月底爆发至今已近五个月,而各国也正积极抗疫。我国疫情自“阻断措施”以来,仍不断攀升,甚至在截至本月16日中午2时,本地新增728例冠状病毒19确诊病例,破单日最高增幅纪录。 随着疫情的加重、政府实施“阻断措施”,卫生部也推行出门即带上口罩,因此人们对于不戴口罩的行为更为敏感,一旦被发现出门不带口罩将会有网友将其拍摄或录影。尽管拍摄下来的用意是为了提醒大家,但却也在近日出现另一种声音— 拍摄者矫枉过正的心态。 日前网友Kavitha Haridas在脸书上上传一段视频,内容为一名印裔男子正气喘呼呼,脸上未戴口罩,拍摄视频的人怒气冲冲走到印裔男子前,先是质问你是否有口罩在身上,随后便大声斥责,为何在走路时不戴上口罩。 而被拍摄的印裔男子则低头表示,好的会戴上,但却仍无法平息拍摄者的怒火。拍摄者质问,“你是不是有受过教育?是不是不明白现在的处境?” 印裔男子则立马拿起手上的布遮住嘴巴,频频道歉。然而,拍摄者还得理不饶人,直呼“我们并不欠你 ”,视频也到此结束。 Kavitha认为,虽然印裔男子在出门后没有带上口罩,但从男子的装扮来看相信是正在运动中。即使不是在运动,但质问别人是否曾受过教育并不正确,对男子都是一种侮辱。 “我完全延误躲在相机后的人,你无权对另一个人这么做,请试想,如果这发生在你父母身上,你还会希望别人这么跟他说话吗?” 尽管疫情日益严重,戴上口罩是必然的行为,但似乎也开始出现矫枉过正的行为。目前体育理事会也鼓励新加坡人持续锻炼保持身体健康,加强免疫力。 因此,若个人仍能独自或与同一屋檐下的人外出运动,但在外出时,必须带上口罩。然而,若民众是跑步、慢跑、骑自行车或类似运动量较大的活动,则无需带上口罩,在运动完毕后再带上口罩。 人民党主席乔立盟认为这种现象不可取,也提醒不是每个人都拿到口罩,或有者无法接触信息和更新当前的政策更新。 他坦言,一些视频中甚至用非常难听的语调谴责,甚至于在指定地区用餐的送餐员也饱受困扰,吃个饭都不能安生。 乔立盟称,我们需要的是协助这些群体、了解他们为何不戴口罩、或为何不得已在外头闲逛。
