While countless people across the globe are self-quarantining in an attempt to flatten the curve of coronavirus (COVID-19), for Ant-Man and the Wasp star Evangeline Lilly, it's "#businessasusual."
"Just dropped my kids off at gymnastics camp," Lilly shared on Instagram. "They all washed their hands before going in. They are playing and laughing."
Naturally, a number of fans commented on Lilly's post to express their concern and frustration with the actor's refusal to follow World Health Organization and Centers for Disease Control and Prevention guidelines. For Lilly, though, it's a matter of freedom. "I have two young kids," she said in response to one fan. "Some people value their lives over freedom, some people value freedom over their lives. We all make our choices."
"It’s unnerving…Let’s be vigilant right now," Lilly said in another comment. "And kind. Watchful and gracious — keeping a close eye on our leaders, making sure they don’t abuse this moment to steal away more freedoms and grab more power."
Additionally, Lilly was accused by some of being a conspiracy theorist for writing "There’s ‘something’ every election year" in response to a fan who was skeptical about coronavirus and other past global health scares.
