Corona -The Life Changer
Fear of the unknown is a testimony to human civilization. Sometimes the unknown
entity is so deceptive that it can attack without any sign of its presence. We have seen
many such scenarios in various works of fiction but the common man had never
imagined that something similar can take place during their time on this planet.
Tales of future or instances of the past may arrive anytime in the present and leave
everyone in dismay.
Amid this corona virus pandemic, experience’ plays both a positive and a negative
role. Talking about the positive
aspect, we are in a situation where we
will be the ones responsible to
determine the future of our existence.
Our every action will be crucial and
will ascertain our chances of survival.
Here each individual is responsible for
the entire race and this will be
remembered as a collective experience
for humanity and will serve as a ray of
hope for future catastrophes. The
experience gained from the current
situation will also make the
inhabitants lead their life in a much
careful way, keeping the future in mind.Coming to the negative, there is no such
prior experience possessed by this enervation to deal with a pandemic which is quick
and contagious. We do not have any prescribed cure or technology to stop the
transmission yet. Many global powers are trying hard in this direction but time is
flying and more people are getting affected. Lack of experience is taking people’s
lives.
Post-World War II, the concept of superpowers emerged and the countries were put
into various categories based on their economic standards, influential capability,
human development, defence powers etc. Many countries have also emerged as new
powers in the past decades. But the virus has made certain things very clear and the
entire human race needs to realise them at the earliest. Despite power and
development, the countries have not been able to curb the pandemic and its spread.
Lives have been lost and the people have been rendered helpless in the most
developed countries of the world.
The 21st-century is the most advanced phase of humanity in terms of tech. But today
we are witnessing that only having technology advancement cannot stop a
catastrophe. There are various other things which include some basic principles and
simple human behaviour which can prevent devastation.
