Sorry to be blunt here, but come on.. who are these dumb people getting infected with this thing?
It's exactly the same vulnerability as for the Wannacry attack. That one was acceptable, although the patch for the vulnerability came out one month before the attack. So those victims were dumb, but not severely dumb. But this time – after the first attack, you still didn't install the patch? In that case you kinda have yourself to blame.
