31 Pics Of People Not Avoiding Contact In South Carolina Illustrate The First Stage Of A Tragedy
Interview
People and politicians in the US are reacting very differently to the coronavirus pandemic—it all depends on the state you’re living in. South Carolina has recently come under fire after some people on Twitter shared photos of Americans who aren’t staying at home and are ignoring the social distancing advice. Scroll down to see just what the situation is like in some parts of the state.
According to The New York Times, there are currently 1,554 reported cases of the coronavirus and 31 deaths in South Carolina. However, the state still hasn’t issued a “stay-at-home” order, even though Governor Henry McMaster has declared a state of emergency. In other words, there are some mixed messages and some Americans still aren’t taking the situation seriously.
Sheriff Lee Boan from Kershaw County told Bored Panda that there are clear signs that South Carolina's Governor McMaster is "slowly tightening down" the state. "He has already closed nonessential businesses and has been encouraging citizens to stay home since the beginning. I feel we are already 60-70% into a stay home order. The stay home order is not far away." Scroll down for the rest of our interview with Sheriff Boan about the current situation in his county and in the state.

According to Sheriff Boan, people who don't adhere to social distancing guidelines can be fined or even get jail time. "SC Section 16-7-10. It carries a $100 fine and up to 30 days in jail. We are dispersing crowds as we see them. Citizens are getting better. It is a major culture change for us all to stay away from each other. But, we are all getting better at it."
The Sheriff told Bored Panda that he and his colleagues are doing well. "No deputies at my department have been infected with COVID-19. We have had as many as 6 deputies out on quarantine due to 'indirect contact.' They were around someone who was around someone with coronavirus."
"But sunlight kills coronavirus!" Get it through your heads: it is infectious as hell, not everyone shows symptoms, and it is deadly to seniors (and not fun for other folks as well).
Not just deadly for seniors. My friend is a pharmacist...they had a 42 year old patient with no underlying conditions die from covid.

That's a false equivalency. Stopping to take a picture of a beach that you expected to be empty isn't the same as choosing to be there for hours, exposing your kids and families to a deadly virus. Probably wearing a face mask, too.

All of these photos are old. I live 5 minutes from this beach and everything is completely shut down. All beach accesses are cordoned off and police are patrolling. There's hardly anyone out at all except for groceries and necessities. All short term rentals have been banned to keep tourists out. And it is tourists you are seeing in all of these photos. NOT SC'ians. We're just as pissed as you are. Everyone I've seen here is doing their part. Our church hasn't met since March 8 (it was one of the very first in this part of the country to stop meeting in person), and more stores/parks/non-essential places have closed every day since then. Stop s******g on SC.
Just imagine if they all died at once. The combined IQ of the state might drop as much as 20 points.
They're tourists. Not locals. Possibly from your home state!

I agree. I just wish they didn't go out & infect others who stayed home. I think people like these beach goers shouldn't be allowed hospital services if they get the virus. Resources are scarce enough. They should go to our frontliners & people who followed CDC guidelines.

I looked closely and it looks like the different groups are all 6" apart. So this is OK.
But everyone in the groups should be 6 feet apart, too. They shouldn't be at the beach, period.

You can't sit that close when you get to the hospital. Can't go outside either. Have to wear an oxygen mask.
"We are well staffed now with all of our School Resource Officers (SRO), court deputies, and civil process deputies now assigned to patrol. We have more deputies on patrol now than we have ever had. We haven’t had the need to work over-time yet. But, we are prepared to do so. We also have some deputies that have volunteered to be reserve ambulance drives in the event that our EMS partners get understaffed."
Sheriff Boan said that he believes they are in the "calm before the storm" and haven't been hit hard. "Yet," he added.
Crowds gather on the beach Friday afternoon near 65th Ave. N. in Myrtle Beach
Governor McMaster has closed state parks and prohibited the public from going to beaches and lakes. He also ordered non-essential businesses, like hair salons and gyms, to close. All public schools are also shut down and students are learning via the internet from home.
Finally, the governor asked all citizens to stay at home. However, some South Carolina lawmakers think that this isn’t enough to suppress the spread of Covid-19 without an official “stay-at-home” order. People still can (and do!) leave their homes for any reason whatsoever, not just for essential trips to the grocery store, the pharmacy, or to take care of loved ones.
South Carolinian Republicans and Democrats are coming together and urging McMaster to issue the order. “I don’t understand why he hasn’t taken that step and told the citizens under the force of law you must stay at home,” Democrat Seth Rose expressed his frustration, considering that South Carolina’s neighbors North Carolina, Virginia, Georgia, and Florida have all issued “stay-at-home” orders of their own.
“We should not be recommending you stay home unless you want to go out,” Rose added.
Meanwhile, Sheriff Boan also had this to say to people to make sure they’re social distancing: “It’s better to stay six feet apart now than to be six feet under later.” If that doesn’t get you to rethink going outside for no reason, can anything?
I am really resenting this state and governor on behalf of all the exhausted medical people who will have to go to SC to supplement the state's medical people when they get overwhelmed with all the sick people who ignored the strongly worded suggestions to stay home. Argh!

What about places of work that are still open and it’s not essential that they have to be open.#mcmastersshutscdown#somescpeoplearesocialdistancing#wewouldstayathomeifwecould
Technically they are spread out at least 6 feet apart? Assuming the smaller clumps are related people. Further back thought there are long stretches of people.
I know some people are taking it seriously, but there is no way that they all will. This is why a "stay at home" order is needed. There are enough entitled, ignorant, or foolhardy people that won't die, but they're out there now getting other people sick and will have disastrous downstream death because of their dumb asses.
I kinda liked how the government handled it here in Bavaria, Germany. They STARTED with recommending social distancing etc, then they limited the hours restaurants and such could be open, then they shut a whole lot of business down apart from a broad definition of "essential", then they made that definition more narrow, the they only allowed people outside for "important" things (which includes going for a walk, so it's pretty lax, but still). The limitations happened in pretty quick succession; it really felt like "ok people, distance yourself now, I said DISTANCE - well if you won't comply let me limit things x y z - well if that doesn't do it let me shut these things down - ok of that doesn't work, I guess I'll have to be even more strict about it...". They really seemed to try to give people a chance.

The sad truth is that some of the people in these photos are going to die from Covid-19 and some of the people who maybe did not even know that they ever had it will have infected some other people who will then die from Covid-19. Please, people, SOCIAL DISTANCING must be seen in the same light as we see the most basic of traffic rules. We all drive on trhe same side of the road in order to not cause unnecessary traffic accidents and possible deaths. It wasn't always like that. Now, we must abide by SOCIAL DISTANCING recommendations for that very same reason, to LIVE AND LET LIVE. Nobody says "No one is going to tell me which side of the road to drive on!" So, wash your hands, stay apart, and stay well!
Virginian here. I had to go to the grocery store last week. At Food Lion people social distanced, at Walmart they didn't. It took me forever to get through the store because I had to keep avoiding people. The next time I have to go out I'm dressing like a maniac. Maybe then people will walk away from me instead of toward me.
Exactly the same as Italy one month ago. People don't listen to "advice". They have to be obligate to comply.
Yeah, and look at Italy now. 😭😔 I wish people would stop being so selfish.

Stay at home order shouldve been issued weeks ago! Bad enough that Mr President downgraded the situation from the start, now we have to wait for hundreds of thousands to die. Screw social distancing. STAY HOME PEOPLE!
The sad thing is that one of these people will die and their family will blame it on the "liberal media" somehow.
Thats why there are today 213 600 Confirmed cases in the US and 3 331 deaths and counting...
I am from South Carolina and we are literally begging our governor daily to issue a statewide stay at home order. Until he does and limits "essential services" to things that are actually essential, we still have to work. The highways are full every morning, and yet McMaster still refuses to take aggressive action. Plus, we still have people congregating everywhere. The governor says he believes in the people of South Carolina to show common sense, but largely I'm not seeing that. Most everyone I know has limited all contact, but you still see these pictures. We need a stay at home order BADLY or this will decimate our state.
I’m from SC, too, and South Carolinians don’t show common sense when we fight over toilet paper. How in the hell does he think we will show common sense in staying home? Doesn’t he know us by now?

Seeing all of these makes me really angry. These people are endangering a lot of people because they feel like it. It really isn't hard to stay home.
Glad I live in Ohio with a governor who believes in science and who DID NOT ignore the warnings.
It's sad to see. They ignored it in Sweden and now they're really screwed. Especially with the bad American healthcare system it will be a real challenge.
As if it wasn't clear already, it definitely is now! The problem is PEOPLE. Not the government, but normal, regular people. There are way to many of them, and they are too stupid. Harsh I know, but true.
We live next to one of the biggest parks in town and we have to drive through it to get out of our house for grocery runs. We've genuinely never seen so many people at the park on regular days and this has been an ongoing thing for weeks now. I'm lost for words.
Well, here in the Czech Republic all the hairdressers, barber shops are closed, restaurant, bars and pubs as well. The only shops open are grocery stores, electronics, mobil providers, haberdeshers, drugstores and garden centers and florists (those because in the spring they have the greatest sales). Paying is preffered by card, cashiers are behind panel and there are marks on the floor to show distance.
Henry McMaster, and other governors who haven't yet implemented stay-at-home or did implemented the order later than it was prudent to do so, are not morally qualified to hold public office
People should notice there are soooo many tragic cases of Covid-19 fatalities that almost wiped out an entire family..
The most loyal Trumpist governors have blood on their hands for following the president's hunches instead of the advice from the public health experts, experts of epidemiology and the medical community.
Other comment double posted so I deleted one. That's it! Please don't be harsh and down vote because I deleted it😁

I feel like the situation is critical enough that it should be criminalized when some refuses to obey social distancing recommendations. A person who knowingly has HIV can be charged with attempted murder if they fail to inform their partner about the risks of unprotected sex. coronavirus should be treated the same way.
In Berlin, parks etc are still open. You are allowed out with the people in your household to get some fresh air, do grocerie shopping. They banned team sports and all gatherings like barbeques etc. You can meet one friend outdoors, the distance is supposed ot be 1,5m. Many people don't quite manage that, but most do. It is working, the infection rate has gone down a lot. The reasoning behind it is that without the option of getting out and some fresh air, peple will go crazy - we don't have the big houses and yards, people in the US seem to have. Domestic abuse has tripled in China, not somethign we want to copy. DIY shops and garden centers are still open, but they only allow a limited number of people.
What about the people taking the pictures? They are at the beaches and at lowes too not self isolating. I dont get this article
It's not just South Carolina- the stupidity is rampant everywhere in America- im in Tennessee and it's here too
I'm not surprised. I live near the coast in southern NC, very close to the border of SC. No one tells these people what to do. Screw everyone else! They're like cats, 'I do what I want'. Until COVID hits YOUR family, YOUR neighborhood, YOUR friends will they take this seriously. The virus doesn't discriminate, people. I'm a retired RN, originally trained in Brooklyn, and to see what is going on in NYC hospitals breaks my heart. It could happen anywhere, even in South Carolina.
Aussie here....our beaches are closed, unless exercising. Sunbathers like the ones in your pictures would get fined. Social distancing is being taken very seriously. Limited numbers allowed in stores, security to enforce distancing etc. all mass gatherings were banned several weeks ago (including churches). We are told to stay home, have no visitors (or face fines or jail). Most people are doing the right thing. Even though we have one of the best health systems in the world, we don't want to test it. I just wish they would have grounded ALL flights in and out.
I'm in Southern California. We have a stay at home order. Some people aren't obeying it either. We can point fingers.
Very selfish actions. America seems to be really slow with bringing in restrictions to limiting the spread of coved-19. With the American health system being pretty poor if I lived in America I'd be really scared right now. In Australia I have to say the government is doing pretty well with bringing in regulations and most people are taking it seriously now and thinking about how their actions can effect other people.
I live in America and my daughter has a heart murmur and I'm terrified. We are staying on strict lockdown for the duration. I don't care what those other idiots do. We are not leaving the house till this is over.

I saw a photo somewhere of a guy on the beach with a big circle drawn around him on the sand. I get that people who live right on the beach want to go sit out in their 'front yard' and I think they should be allowed to. But everyone else needs to stay away. Shut down all public parking within 2 miles of the shoreline. People have to stay away from others by 12 feet minimum so draw that circle in the sand. Families of course, who live together can be together but that is it. And I don't live near a beach, mine is a 20 min drive away and I haven't left my house (except for 2 short grocery runs) in 21 days and counting.
This is why governments need to enforce curfews etc because of ignorant people. I hate anything forced on society but life and death issues I wish they would take lead before s**t hits the fan. I have 2 daughters who are nurses here in Canada and when I see this type of ignorance I want to punch someone in the throat. STOP ENDANGERING OUR FAMILIES!!! and people we love! And STOP ENDANGERING OTHERS who care enough about people they listen and stay home!! I speak for those who find those people in these pics are A..HOLES!!!
I'm a Canadian, but I have to wonder just what percentage of these people probably have a MAGA hat or T-shirt at home? Just following their eternally (idiotic) Leader's lead in all this - "Nothing to worry about, it'll be gone when the weather warms up."
Let me explain how this works further. You're on the beach, keeping 6 feet away. You walk past a guy that has Covid-19 (he's unaware he has it)..but what he did do was spit on the sand where you just walked. You carry it to your car and then your house. You dispense it all over the carpet. Your kids play in it, your dog rolls in it. Then you play with your kids or pet your dog..randomly touching your face. Guess who has Covid-19 now. Stop going to the beaches and STAY HOME!!!
lack of discipline. they can't understand simple instructions to stay at home.
Where are our government leaders? We have a government of the f*****g stupid, corrupt, and inept! Our government leaders need to be held criminally liable. Lock them up, throw away the keys, and take their money.
What more do you what them to do? Be smarter than that don't depend on the government it is run by people and people are stupud for the most part. Those people in charge are not special and most don't have the sense god gave the goose so what more could you possible want from them beside declaring marital law they have done pretty much what they can do. The cdc and who run the show anyway right now. I can't believe people still think people in power know what their doing. They are just winging like everybody else

This is disgusting. Those people are the reason this isn't stopping. Over a million deaths have happened and it's because of these jerks.

EXCUSE ME? F**k you. I’m a South Carolinian and I do not fly a Confederate flag, nor do I “worship at the alter of trump.” We’re in a pandemic, you idiot. Is this really the time to be flinging around stereotypes? You need to stop generalizing all of us for what some do. I’m sure you wouldn’t like it if people did that to you.
