What is the term used to describe the pathological need to travel while a pandemic is on ?

In our country they are called by many names. From "Asinine to Ztupid" and even whole sentences like "Selfish Super Spreader" etc.
"Grandmakiller" seems to be a proper term to describe them too.

Idiot comes to mind. So I supposed it's covered. C an be used for sooooo many instances, like the need to go out for a dinner. Hey, I enjoy it too, but to risk my heath or more importantly, someone else's.

No. The same words that we have in place are good enough. A group suffers more based on certain parameters and they claim they are being targeted. Dumbasses still fit.

Wow! - "Grandmakiller" about sums it up, there's always the generic "Covidiot" of course

I like Covidiot.
But it should be defined so we know if it relates to what side of the fence one is on or idiots in general.

Immune works just fine, even for those inclined to judge others without any facts, knowledge, or "actual science" awareness.

I D ten T.
Written another way it is; "ID10T"
There is another one I have used when I was working full time (I retired in 2008).
I was Chief Engineer at a group of radio stations. I'd get called into a studio to fix a problem. Once it was fixed, the guy would ask, "What was wrong with it?".
I'd tell him, "It was just a PEBCAC error".
PEBCAC ERROR: Problem Exists Between Chair And Computer.
They never knew what either response meant ;)
