It just seems strange. Unnecessarily harsh.
If all they want is to stop people coming in close contact to minimize the virus spread, why couldn't they just call it something like body distancing.
Social distancing almost implies to distance yourself "socially" from others.
As we are social animals, and with today's tech, we don't need to be physically holding hands with each other to be able to connect socially and/or emotionally.
Just wondering why they might have chosen that term
It isn't a conspiracy. It simply means if you do't want to get others sick, keep your distance. Of course humans are social animals. But the sane realize this and are not as selfish as assholes who don't give a fuck.
