Instincts and infections.
People imitate each other. When everyone does it feels safe even if deadly (and people ruin themsleves and each other in many ways). When no one does it must be weird even if it is salvation.
These days there are many more people on my street than during the first week of the lockdown.
Which makes the street look safe. At the same time it was aboslutely safe when there was no one there and, accordingly, is dangerous now:/
