When written in Chinese, the word "crisis" is composed of two characters-one represents danger, and the other represents opportunity. Same is true for current crisis as well.

No economy, industry or business spared from the consequences of the novel corona virus. Some industries affected more than others, and the impacts are on a large scale.

In a series of articles I am presenting my views on changes brought by coronavirus.

Let’s check impact on Health and pharma sector.

  • The Pandemic has transformed regular health visits into online checkups.

  • This allows patients to seek care from the best doctors in the country for primary and second opinions, not the doctor that has a clinic within driving distance.
    Clinics are learning how to deliver care via technology that is more convenient and less expensive.

  • In the current pandemic, hospitals are focusing more on serving patients with emergency health needs or corona virus symptoms.

  • Health experts are writing about providing hospital care in the home.
    With sophisticated remote monitoring devices connected to a smartphone or computer, they could conduct most routine exams virtually.

  • Today, we can collect blood pressure and pulse ox readings, and other data to help the physician with making diagnoses.

  • Hospitals can reduce the cost of hospital care, increase patient satisfaction and reduce infections with care provided in a home or in an alternative setting.

  • As per EY’s bioscience report from Asia, 93% of the pharma companies in India were just beginning their journey in digitalisation.

  • COVID-19 has acted as a catalyst that has driven every company to find active ways to innovate and have interaction digitally.

  • In the world after COVID-19, hospitals can continue to focus on providing care trauma, complex procedures and surgeries. The hospital can focus on mastery of fewer services and offer less urgent care in alternative settings.

Thanks for reading guys...

On January 30, the novel coronavirus total case count surpassed that for SARS (which affected 8,096 people worldwide). On January 30, the World Health Organization declared the coronavirus outbreak a Global Public Health Emergency. On January 30 CDC confirmed the first US case of human to human transmission[17]. Germany, Japan, Vietnam and the United States have reported cases in patients who didn't personally visit China, but contracted the virus from someone else who had visited Wuhan, China[15]. These cases of human to human transmission are the most worrisome, according to the WHO[16]. Wuhan (the city where the virus originated) is the largest city in Central China, with a population of over 11 million people. The city, on January 23, shut down transport links. Following Wuhan lock down, the city of Huanggang was also placed in quarantine, and the city of Ezhou closed its train stations. This means than 18 million people have been placed in isolation. The World Health Organization (WHO) said cutting off a city as large as Wuhan is "unprecedented in public health history."[12] and praised China for its incredible commitment to isolate the virus and minimize the spread to other countries

It's really a bad time to us experiencing this kind of pandemic, but we just need to think positive because it's not the first pandemic that hit our world, hence humanity successfully overcome those past pandemic and why not this time also. We just don't know when it will end and how many more families or nation will be affected by the said pandemic.

This virus really affect many countries.Health and pharma sectors are not the only sector that was being affected by this pandemic.We all know that it also affects every nations economy.One of the sectors that was also affected was the education.Most of the countries continue the education by means of the technology.They decided to continue rather than to freeze the education.We have different learning modalities and these are the blended learning and modular learning.Though these learning modalities are very different to the normal one or what we call face to face learning,the teachers and other staff of education help one another to push this new trend in education.
