especially in times where there are no necessary medical supplies for all patients
Not even patients. My sister-in-law is a nurse and her hospital is quickly running out of mask and gloves for the staff. And when your job is to treat sick people all day, but you have no gloves or masks...
The real problem with Covid-19 isn't so much the number of people it will kill by infecting them - which, to be fair, is still a lot - it's the number of people that will die as hospitals and medical providers get overloaded - as is currently the case in Italy. Already it's the case that hospitals are so overloaded that getting on a ventilator is practically a death sentence.
There was a recent group of people who went to party for Spring Break, despite everyone telling them not to, because they thought that they were invulnerable, that they couldn't possibly get sick. Well, one of them turned out to have Covid, and now all of them may have Covid, along with their families. That's how it's able to spread so fast and infect so many.
Being confined to your house sucks, but it's the most we can do right now to not only help ourselves but countless others as well.

That's probably the most succinct detailing of the matter I've seen on the forums thus far. It's a pity that some will still not understand- or at least claim to not understand- the matter (that is, the necessity for proper equipment rationing/assignment, quarantine practices, and moderation of the rate of infection), even with such a clear and straightforward explanation.

I have recently reached level 6 on this platform and, in less than a week, I went from being level 3 to being level 6. In turn, I have seen that many people try to contribute video games so that people have a time to spend in your residence without having to go out or think about going out and, thus, have a bit of healthy and moderate entertainment at home. It is well known that, in many countries, COVID-19 is advancing very fast and, it is our duty, like Gamers, also to help, even if only a little, to make more people aware of the importance of prevention, especially in times where there are no necessary medical supplies for all patients and well, you can have a pleasant time at home. Maybe not every day, because the panorama is very monotonous, but we do not have anything to do at those times when we are done and we feel like going out to walk the streets, to see how desert it is... and without any purpose clear more than curiosity. To finish, I want to be emphatic: DO NOT LEAVE HOME, only for what is necessary.
Join my first Train!
STAY HOME, SAVE LIVES!
