Perhaps one definition is not always enough... literal vs virtual. I took the meaning here to be the application of herd mentality to the actions seen in people behaving as if they feel safe just because it seems everyone else is. In contrast, they'd all be highly concerned for their well being if everyone in the store was coughing and sneezing.
