This pandemic has surely ruined a lot of life’s and careers worldwide. From big business companies to small startups, everything has been affected by this pandemic of covid-19.Since I live in India, I have gradual knowledge about the panic that is drowning India in fear .Everyone is gulping the fear of death of their loved ones, neighbors and relatives.
Lack of oxygen and limited beds for patients is making the situation worst. News is flooded with people dying every other minute. No money is saving any life, weather rich or poor everyone is floating on the same boat. People are feeling helpless with the way this second wave of covid-19 had stung India, thus the situation is very alarming.
In this situation, where everyone is expected to work hand in hand, there are some exceptional groups of people, who want to take advantage of this situation to make money. They are literally putting lives on risk; just to put little more cash in their pockets. This is a sad ‘reality’ of mankind and put humanity in question?
Black marketing of oxygen cylinders, heavy charges of ambulances, heavy hospital bills are shutting down all hopes for people who can’t afford anything. Even, people who are ready to pay any amount to get resources for their loved ones are helpless, because of the limited availability of necessary resources.
Almost every country is researching to decode this virus but still no effective solution has been found to deal with this situation. Because of the mutations in this virus, it has been very difficult to find an effective solution, new researches comes up that too with different theories but as we can see ,that no theory is practically effecting the situation positively.
The unfortunate and the saddest part that breaks my heart is that, there is a big waiting list for people to cremate or burry, who died due to covid-19.As, India is a country with diversity and different religional believes. There are some religional rituals that are performed during the cremation ceremony to set the soul free. But now, cremating your loved ones with full religion rituals is a luxury .People are not even allowed to see their loved ones for one last time either.
So, what government of India should do? Lockdown!
A lot of people, who are reading this article must be thinking that, why India is not fully locked up. Despite of medical emergency, why the government is not announcing much needed lockdown!
If you ask me that whether India should announce lock-down or not. Then my answer would be:
NO, because we can’t ignore the other side of the coin and the major fact, that India is a developing country, there are laborers/daily workers that survive on daily wages and take every day as it comes. Because of big percentage of laborers/daily workers it is impossible for India to go in full lockdown state.
Contrary to that there are some states in India that are going on partial lockdown on week days and full lockdown on weekends.
What about vaccines?
There are two vaccines that are approved by Indian government, one is “Covishield” and the other one is “Covaxin”.
In my knowledge they both works in similar manner, and each have two doses that completes one vaccination process. But there is constant fear that is restricting people to get vaccinated. This fear is, because of the rumors that, these vaccines have some side effects and are a danger own its own.
But the reality is, that it's actually very effective to boost your immunity and gives your immune system power to build more anti-bodies to fight against the virus.
I myself got vaccinated and had no side effect what so ever.
What to do if you get covid-19?
It has been suggested that taking steam is really effective in initial stage of covid-19; vitamin c is also proven to boost your energy which will help you to strengthen your immune system to fight.
NOTE:-it has been seen that there are some people who got their RT-PCR test (covid-19 test) negative but still have symptoms of covid-19. It’s been suggested that they should stay alert and quarantine themselves for precaution sake and also they should take a record of their health and should stay connected with doctors.
This is a tough time but we shall pass it with all the power and unity. This virus will definitely vanish with time, but our learning will stay with us for lifetime.
So, we all should take this as a lesson to stay fit and healthy as much as we can. This pandemic ,taught us the value of family and health. And has proven the saying “health is wealth”.
You can always earn money, get education, travel the world but not on the cost of your health. Taking this situation lightly will make you pay a big amount, and that amount could be your life. So, take all the necessary precautions and stay safe.
