      I wouldn’t talk about a meltdown of society here - this is a natural disaster, not the sacking of Rome. In due time help will arrive, people will bury the dead and rebuild. Though I agree it makes you appreciate how we take things for granted until one day they aren’t.

      It’s a wildfire on a very small and very arid island. Not exactly representative of society at large.
