As the pandemic started here in the Philippines everyone is not informed well for the outbreak of the virus and everyone is still being calm but the Department of Health (DOH) already give an awareness on December 31, 2019 about the spread of virus where its origin is from Wuhan China. On January 2020 a new year had opened and people were enjoying the atmosphere as I witnessed in different places here at my place and even in social media. Some are posting their new outfits in facebook with polca dots for because it is lucky for the the year 2020. However, some are been thankful for the new gifts and blessings they received in year 2019 where families are going to church and had their family bondings, some couples were can be seen in the malls or even in the parks were dating. And the faces of everyone were filled of happiness and enjoyment. Whereas, I conclude that this year 2021 is good for everyone’s life.
However, as the days passes by the virus become an alarming and on the end of January 30, 2020 the WHO declared that the COVID-19 outbreak became a global health emergency. And as I remember, many places around the world have totally the awareness of the spread of the virus but some countries are being calm and just do their usual and regular activities. Eventually, on March 11, 2020, the WHO declared COVID-19 a global pandemic. Many people were started to panic, malls are occupied with a lot of people especially in buying their food supplies. And later on malls reported of having out of stacks of their products and that’s because of that people that buy so much without thinking others; a selfish manner. In fact, the government eventually decided to closed all the business industries except the hospital facilities here in the Philippines but some airlines weren’t able to close because there’s a lot of workers abroad that book their flights to go home in our country. And this is the start of the widely spread of the virus.
World Health Organization (WHO) give some informations of the symptoms of the virus which includes, fever or chills, cough, shortness of breath or difficulty of breathing, loss of taste or smell, headache, sore throat, congestion or runny nose, nausea or vomiting, diarrhea, and muscle or body aches. Furthermore, WHO also give advises and health protocols to avoid the spread of the virus and these are using of face-mask & later on wearing of face-shields, use of alcohol to sanitize hands, and one-meter social distancing.
WHO ARE THE FRONTLINERS ?
Frontliners are our Doctors, Nurses, Paramedics, Pathologists, Hospital Support Attendant’s, Age Care, Security and Police who go to work each day.
Hence, families are advised to stay home and only one member of the family can go outside to buy their essential needs. Thereby, the virus is still spreading and it totally hits our country at first everyday it was just reported a hundredth’s of cases but eventually a thousand’s of cases which makes health care facilities weaken. To think, how healthcare practitioners can hold this many victims everyday it drastically they cannot. It is so hard for them, as I seen on the television they had been strike so hard and as I see on their faces they are being tired and hopeless but they are still fighting and their faces were filled of determination and eagerness to do their work everyday. In addition, they even work harder and harder each day just to take care the victims of COVID-19 even the risk is still their that they will be infected by other people, but still they don’t think this, they just being positive in mind and less away this events. Moreover, their sacrifices is so meaningful in the history and what they did is will be there because it is written; it is written in the minds of those survivors, it is written in the history, and it is written in the whole world and it is unforgettable. And they are so inspiring to all that even life is hard they still fighting and never surrender.
Therefore, all I could say and very evident that they are the HEROES in this greatest challenge to every people in the whole world.
