What is Covid-19?
In the news, Covid-19 is an infectious disease aused by Sars-cov. 2. The said virus began in Wuhan, China, and spread all over the world that caused an outbreak.
In our daily lives
This pandemic has affected thousands of people who are infected and sick because of the non-stop spreading of viruses. Until now coronavirus continues to affect population like persons with disabilities, people living in poverty situations, old persons, etc., actually it is non-predictable because all of us may infect if we don't follow the protocols given by the authority.
Affects on education
The public policy method available to enhance our skill is going to school. School time can raise social skills and it increases a child's ability rather than online schooling. But the problem is how much the covid-19 interruption child's learning? Are we going to stop learning by not doing anything and for covid-19 disappeared? Well, we need to find or use other methods of learning to continues it. However, accepts the consequences of today's new normal schooling. The new normal schooling depends on parents if they want to enroll their children. But most of them decide not to enroll because of worried about the covid-19 and lack of financial status.
Effects on the economy
On March 11, 2020, the World Health Organization (WHO) characterized COVID-19 as a pandemic, pointing to over 3 million cases and 207,973 deaths in 213 countries and territories. The infection has not only become a public health crisis but has also affected the global economy. The significant economic impact has already occurred across the globe due to reduced productivity, loss of life, business closures, trade disruption, and decimation of the tourism industry.
As the spread of the virus is likely to continue disrupting economic activity and negatively impact manufacturing and service industries, especially in developed countries, we expect that financial markets will continue to be volatile. As outbreaks of novel infections are not likely to disappear soon, proactive international actions are required not only to save lives but also to protect economic prosperity.
We don't even know when will it end. People are worried, paranoid, and problematic, especially during the quarantine period. Just like my family, it's a nightmare for us because we are not living in a normal situation. No mass gathering, not going to church, social distancing, don't step out of the house are the things that should avoid during the covid-19 lockdown. But despite the crisis, I am thankful that no one got infected with my family. But now that we are in a modified general community quarantine and some places are in a new normal I'm a bit worried because we all know that virus is still there, that's why we always practice doing's.
We have a lot of lessons learned. We learned to be more careful, to wash our hands, to wear facemasks. We learned how to provide food without going out instead of going to the local market to buy our fresh food and vegetables, the stall owner would send out videos of his stall and we would order by text. Boxes full of fresh produce would arrive at our door, sometimes with a personal message.
However, we always think positively in the middle of a pandemic. It is also true that staying indoors for so long can be quite depressing but life must go on. I keep active on home workouts like an exercise routine, cook something new, do household chores, do backyards, and many more to lessen your boredom.
COVID 19 is hell
