Why can't people help doing things that should not be done these days like large gatherings, going to discos, meeting loads of relatives at the same time...? FOMO could be the cause!!!, that is to say, the Fear Of Missing Out something (which is actually the topic of one of the options in this Selectivity exam: The extraordinary life of Nikola Tesla & FOMO . Do you have a fear of missing out? )
We may have the feeling that this summer we are missing out loads of things, but the most important of all is LIFE and the wellness of our relatives, firends and all the people that surround us. So, for sure not going to parties, or to the beach, or on holiday abroad is not such a big deal!!!
