Sturgeon Bay Psychologist Dr. Dennis White says there are three reasons why it is difficult for people to continue to follow safe practices when it comes to the health crisis. The fatigue brought on by continually having to follow health guidelines during the COVID-19 pandemic has led to people questioning how much longer they have to do it. Dr. White shares why it is so hard to follow safe practices.
Dr. White says maintaining safe social contact can be accomplished through social distancing, wearing masks, and washing hands frequently. He notes that although we often can’t see the direct results of our safe behavior, each of us has a responsibility to each other to fight through the COVID fatigue and continue to do it.
