What was the patient thinking, and how did he possibly escape? Weren’t there security men there?. There must be one of these four things at the back of his mind to have made commit such act. 1. Could not bear being refered to as a victim. 2. On a mission to commit suicide. 3. To spread the virus to others who don’t have it. Lastly, to return to his family or flee from the state to another state. Please every one should stay safe and take precautions. Because as there is movement and he may see it as an opportunity to escap.
