During the times and height of covid everyone was reasonably scared and confused. What I personally saw was people not knowing what exactly this virus was and how to properly protect themself from it whilst mourning their loved ones who unfortunately were victims of the virus. Comparing this the play “Oedipus the King” like when the people in the story were also scared and confused. Not knowing what this plague was and not understanding the deaths trying to put some reasoning behind it. “I know you are all sick, yet there is not one of you, sick though you are, 70 that is as sick as myself. “

Hello Sabrina,
There was definitely a lot of confusion and fear and that turned into panic. I witnessed a lot of reasonable feelings evolve into something bigger and scarier.
I agree with you that people was confused and scared during the Covid-19 pandemic and when comparing how the citizens acted here and in the play was the same. Do you think anything could’ve made the people here and in the play not scared and confused?
