Because a lot of high profile people are "special" and think they should be treated accordingly, while us every day mugs struggling to survive from day to day pay the rent.
Karen from Brighton, or Peter from Portsea syndrome!
The truth is even worse though.
The infamous Mornington Peninsula COVID crew didn't really disbelieve COVID, even though they fronted the media and told everyone it was just a cold, they came home from Whistler or wherever to break the rules because they knew they had a room in their mega-mansion setup like a private ICU! They had their own ventilators, defib, etc., etc., they knew they had guaranteed access to this stuff at home.
So the reality is they just didn't give a stuff, they were prepared to burn everybody else and risk some lesser personal harm to preserve their lavish lifestyle! But it's a foolish approach, because all that personal kit guarantees nothing, it reduces risk it doesn't eliminate it!
