Government policies on social distance seemto be less effective because they clash with the cultural norms and social behaviors of people. Asollution to the problem is society should be educated and facilitated when social distancedpolicies, work from home or whatever form of plague treatment is implemented. This time will bea moment for the people to help each other.
