So when I then saw Matina Stevis-Gridneff\u2019s tweet, not knowing who she was, I assumed the text was sarcasm\u2014that she was poking fun at the fact that every single scientist in this ridiculous NYT piece was male by saying \u201cthey look like your uncle.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>But no!

Or rather, I <em>was<\/em> disappointed. I was simply not <em>surprised<\/em>.<\/p>\n<blockquote>\n<p class=\"css-exrw3m evys1bk0\">The couple arrived just married from South Africa, where they are citizens, on Sunday, March 22, planning to stay for six days. For a 27-year-old teacher and a 28-year-old butcher, the holiday \u201cwas an extravagance,\u201d Ms. De Freitas said. But since they hadn\u2019t lived together before exchanging vows, it would be a short, firecracker of a launch to their marriage.<\/p>\n<p class=\"css-exrw3m evys1bk0\">Still, they had some concerns about the trip, considering the mounting travel restrictions imposed in light of the new coronavirus outbreak around the world. But nothing specific that would affect them had been announced, and their travel agent assured them that, whatever policy was forthcoming, all South African citizens would be allowed back home. Go ahead and have a great time, they were told.<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<p>March 22nd. <em>March 22nd?!<\/em>\u00a0By March 22nd, my kids had already been out of school for a week!

But it\u2019s not like they are the only people faced with this right now. It\u2019s everyone. Weddings, trips, vacations, conferences\u2014so many things canceled.<\/p>\n<p>The article says they asked their travel agent and their travel agent said they\u2019d be able to get back in the country\u2014but did they check with anyone in government? On March 15, a full <em>week<\/em> before this couple left to honeymoon at the Maldives, the government of South Africa <a href=\"https:\/\/www.garda.com\/crisis24\/news-alerts\/323131\/south-africa-authorities-declare-state-of-disaster-and-ban-travelers-from-eight-covid-19-affected-countries-as-of-march-18-update-1\" class=\" decorated-link\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow\">declared a national state of disaster<\/a>. And what do you know, look at this, included in the announcement:<\/p>\n<blockquote><p>It is advised to postpone nonessential travel due to the risk that travelers may be refused entry or be subject to quarantine upon their arrival or during their stay.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>Right from the outset you have a highly irresponsible couple\u2014and a highly irresponsible newspaper and journalist, too, because guess what the NYT article <em>does not mention?<\/em> The fact that the government was advising people to postpone nonessential travel\u00a0<em>due to the risk that travelers might be refused entry.\u00a0<\/em>This seems like it would be an important piece of information to include in this article!<\/p>\n<p>So this poor couple, stuck at a resort in the Maldives and unable to return home, right? So hard! But see, it\u2019s also <em>funny,<\/em> because who <em>wouldn\u2019t<\/em> want to be trapped at an upscale resort, waited on hand and foot by an entire fleet of doting staff!<\/p>\n<p>Oh yes, you read that right:<\/p>\n<blockquote>\n<p class=\"css-exrw3m evys1bk0\">By Sunday, they were the only guests at their resort, the Cinnamon Velifushi Maldives, which normally is at capacity this time of year, catering to some 180 guests. (\u201cRoom rates start at $750 a night,\u201d its website still says.) The resort comprises the entirety of its speck of an island. There is nowhere to go. The couple reign like benign yet captive sovereigns over their islet. The days are long and lazy. They sleep in, snorkel, lounge by the pool, repeat.<\/p>\n<p class=\"css-exrw3m evys1bk0\">The resort\u2019s full staff are at hand, because of the presence of the two guests. Government regulations won\u2019t allow any Maldivians to leave resorts until after they undergo a quarantine that follows their last guests\u2019 departure.<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<p>I want you to notice something. <em>The staff can\u2019t leave.<\/em> They\u2019re stuck at this resort because there\u2019s a rule that says\u00a0<em>they can\u2019t even start their quarantine\u00a0<\/em>until the last guests leave\u2014and these last, irresponsible guests\u00a0<em>can\u2019t\u00a0<\/em>leave because their country has closed its airports,\u00a0<em>which they were warned might happen.\u00a0<\/em><\/p>\n<p>The staff at this resort live separately from their families\u2014the resort comprises the whole island. There are likely many members of the staff who are worried about their families. They\u2019re probably worried about <em>themselves<\/em>. The Maldives closed schools and had four resorts <a href=\"https:\/\/www.ttgmedia.com\/news\/coronavirus-four-maldives-resorts-placed-in-lockdown-21673\" class=\" decorated-link\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow\">under lockdown<\/a> due to tourists who tested positive for COVID-19 as early as March 11th\u2014nearly two weeks before this couple\u2019s visit.<\/p>\n<p>None of this is in the NYT article. Instead, we get this:<\/p>\n<blockquote>\n<p class=\"css-exrw3m evys1bk0\">Accustomed to the flow of a bustling workday, and the engagement with a full house of guests, most of the staff, having grown listless and lonely, dote on the couple ceaselessly. Their \u201croom boy\u201d checks on them five times a day. The dining crew made them an elaborate candlelit dinner on the beach. Every night performers still put on a show for them in the resort\u2019s restaurant: Two lone audience members in a grand dining hall.<\/p>\n<p>At breakfast, nine waiters loiter by their table. Hostesses, bussers and assorted chefs circulate conspicuously, like commoners near a celebrity. The couple has a designated server, but others still come by to chat during meals, topping off water glasses after each sip, offering drinks even though brimming cocktail glasses stand in full view, perspiring. The diving instructor pleads with them to go snorkeling whenever they pass him by.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>I scrolled thorough the article desperately looking for the part where they interview staff, but it\u2019s not there. The staff\u2019s perspective is entirely absent.<\/p>\n<p>And yet, we get this bizarre text about how the staff \u201chaving grown listless and lonely, dote on the couple ceaselessly.\u201d Lonely? <em>Lonely,<\/em> really? The whole staff is still there! The only people absent are the rest of the guests, and it\u2019s not like the staff turn to the guests for company! But it only gets worse: \u201cHostesses, busters and assorted chefs circulate conspicuously, like commoners near a celebrity.\u201d What. <em>What<\/em>. Commoners, <em>really?<\/em>\u00a0That metaphor doesn\u2019t even make sense\u2014commoners are typically contrasted to <em>royalty,<\/em> not to <em>celebrities<\/em>.<\/p>\n<p>The only people the author appears to have interviewed for this article is the couple. That\u2019s where he has it that the staff are eager and doting. And the author of this piece never questions that, despite the fact that the couple telling him all this took this vacation in the face of their government\u2019s warnings to the contrary, raising serious questions about their judgement and perception.<\/p>\n<p>And yet there is <em>nothing<\/em> in this piece about how irresponsible this couple was to take this vacation. There is nothing about how difficult it is for the staff to be stuck at this resort, unable to start even their 14 day quarantines so that they can return to their families in the midst of a terrifying global pandemic. There isn\u2019t even anything in this article about the situation in the Maldives.<\/p>\n<p>Instead, the article focuses only on the couple\u2019s attempts to find a way to get back to South Africa and on how <em>funny<\/em> it is that they\u2019re stuck at a dream resort being doted on by scores of eager servers.\u00a0Because who hasn\u2019t wanted to be in that situation, am I right? Sovereigns over an entire islet, waited on by doting commoners?<\/p>\n<p>It\u2019s a white colonizer\u2019s <em>dream<\/em>.<\/p>\n<p>Again I ask,<em> does this newspaper not have editors?<\/em> This piece reads like someone\u2019s instagram post, or a random white girl\u2019s blog. Was there no one at the NYT to say \u201chey wait a minute, did you interview any of the staff\u201d? Or even \u201cdid you check whether the South African government had travel advisories at that point?\u201d<\/p>\n<p>No one? No one? Okay. Cool.
