PERSONAL HEALTH AND INDIVIDUAL FREEDOM

Freedom is righteous and just-how could anyone think otherwise? It is self-evident. But not
everyone thinks that way , and only after the covid 19 pandemic struck, am beginning to think
otherwise.

Although people will advocate for freedom as one of their rights, many will tend to misuse the
right. Especially now during this pandemic , many prefer safety rather than freedom.

Freedom and safety are at all odds with each other but also need each other .Though people may
uphold freedom as an ultimate virtue, it is limited in the society. You cannot have absolute freedom
because it takes away the safety of others. If anyone could do whatever they wanted , and they chose to
hurt and kill, that restricts someone elses freedom to live

Our society should therefore embrace safety rather than freedom. This is because when we allow
individuals freedom to endanger others, we have damaged both safety and health.

The authorities should therefore consider the safety of many rather than freedom.
