In my opinion this should’ve been kept among Baron’s friends, and not going abroad through whole AL, therefore I understand ppl’s reactions. Furthermore, I also think some ppl think it is his own mistake, knowing COVID-19 has been around the world since February, with following in March the shutdown of Europe, therefore it was known that people had a couple of weeks to return to their homecountry. Also the fact he went to do dangerous things in an unknown country, without an insurance, ppl might think it is kind of his own fault and that he hasn’t solved those kind of things (such as insurance) before he left the UK.
I guess these are possible reasons why some responded like this, I understand both of the parties.
