Totodată, o altă explicaţie ar fi că, în urmă cu câteva sute de ani, oamenii sărbătoreau Anul Nou de 1 aprilie. În Polonia, ziua de 1 aprilie este una în care oamenii fac glume şi farse, iar „activităţile serioase” sunt de evitat. În ultimii ani, Ziua Păcălelilor a fost un prilej pentru presa şi site-urile internaţionale să descreţească frunţile cititorilor îngrijoraţi de criza economică şi de problemele cu care se confruntă zilnic. Totodată, de-a lungul anilor, presa internaţională a făcut farse de 1 aprilie, care au fost apreciate de cititori. Între acestea s-au numărat scaunul pentru câini de la Ikea, „lansat” pe 1 aprilie 2011, documentarul BBC cu pinguini zburători (1 aprilie 2008), burger-ul pentru stângaci lansat de Burger King (1 aprilie 1998).

Proprietarii unui restaurant din Texas au instituit taxe inedite pentru clienți: „75 de dolari dacă trebuie să vă ascultăm de ce nu doriți să purtați mască”. La începutul lunii martie, pe fondul scăderii cazurilor de infectare și a vaccinării masive, guvernatorul din Texas, Greg Abbott, a dispus anularea obligativității de a purta mască pe teritoriul statului din sudul Statelor Unite și de a permite afacerilor să se deruleze la capacitate maximă. Texanii au reacționat diferit în fața măsurilor care au conferit din nou libertate totală de decizie pentru cetățeni. „Tot ce cerem este ca clienții să poarte o mască în timp ce trec pe lângă o altă persoană care mănâncă și nu poartă o mască”, a scris proprietara Kat LaCombe pe pagina de Facebook a restaurantului. Ne-am simțit onorați și privilegiați când două cupluri ne-au spus că e prima dată când mănâncă într-un restaurant de la începutul pandemiei”, a spus LaCombe pentru CNN.

Președintele SUA, Joe Biden, a criticat în termeni duri deciziile statelor de a relaxa abrupt regulile de protecție. Suntem pe punctul de a putea schimba fundamental natura acestei boli datorită modului în care suntem capabili să dezvoltăm vaccinuri. Ultimul lucru de care avem nevoie este gândirea neanderthaliană că, între timp, totul este în regulă”, a declarat președintele american.
