INDIA's Unlock 1.0

INDIA's Unlock 1.0

With the majority of businesses opening up there’s a doubt in everyone’s head that when there were only 300 cases the whole country was put into the lockdown and now where the number of COVID-19 patients have increased to 3 lakhs the government is easing the lockdown.

It’s pretty natural that you would think about government as someone who has no clue about how to fight this virus or contain it. I’ve been seeing on many social media platforms people criticizing gov and saying things like the Gov failed to contain this virus. Now I don’t belong to any political side so I cannot tell you that they failed or not.

But the whole purpose of putting a country in lockdown was to buy some time to prepare for worst-case scenario. Earlier India was dependent on other countries for medical essentials like masks and PPE (Personal Protection Equipment’s) kits. We used to import it from China but due to lockdown we had some time to prepare for worst-case scenario and now you would be surprised to know that India manufactures 4lack PPE’s every day. Plus, we didn’t have enough hospital beds and to tackle that many emergency relief camps have been set as hospitals with all services in it Incase if the spike is way too high also use of railway train coaches as an award is also been implemented.


India is also manufacturing its own testing kits, Isn’t that an achievement? Yes, it is and that’s the whole purpose of the mission statement that our honorable prime minister gave to be “AATMA NIRBHAR” meaning self-reliant. Now our frontline workers can fight this pandemic with complete protection and not compromising on their safety.

Now just think what if we never had a lockdown? That would’ve been scary right What I mean is that just think about a scenario where if the gov didn’t put the lockdown the numbers would’ve spiked we could not have been able to handle this situation and us would’ve been dependable for everything on other countries from masks to ventilators.

So, considering that the lockdown could’ve stopped this virus is not practical and I’ve already given my perspective on why it is LOCKDOWN A PAUSE BUTTON NOT A SOLUTION. Do read that blog to get that perspective as well.

With this lockdown the numbers would definitely increase but we should all be practical this virus is not going to go anywhere soon so we will have to live with this virus by taking all the measures like wearing a mask, maintaining clean hand hygiene and also I know in a country like India with a population of more than 130 crores social distancing is not possible but one can practice this wherever possible.

We should not be terrified of this virus and keep ourselves healthy by exercising and practicing yoga and doing meditation. Keep your mental health good because a good mind has a good health. With these last words I'm ending this blog.

Cheers for reading the blog also, share your opinions on comment box as do you agree with my thought’s or not.


STAY SAFE STAY POSITIVE.

So many people are constantly asking the experts who have studied and have faced similar situations in the past that when will corona virus end? In 1 month or 1 year or 2 year? Honestly no one knows when will it end. Because of its highly contagious nature it is spreading like fire and everyday there are ten thousands of people are getting infected and out of them some unfortunate lives are lost. So what really is the answer then? I'm not being a medical professional or infectious disease expert just wanted to share my opinion and thoughts about how this pandemic would come to an end.  So The answer to the question of when will corona virus pandemic will end is divided into two parts : CASE 1: WE DEVELOP A VACCINE . So consider a case wherein we successfully develop a vaccine which cures or at least reduces the risk of dieing from this COVID-19 virus. But even if we consider that a vaccine is developed today i.e. July 2020 it would still take many years to p

"Depression is real"

Depression a real disease I am sure you must have gotten the news of a very famous Bollywood actor suicide and you must be in shock as to how can a such a divine soul give up. and yes that is hard to process as someone so young and intellectual gives up his life. now I don't know the reason for what was the cause of his suicide but one thing that I came to know from media channels is that he was under depression treatment and was regularly taking anti-depressants for relaxations. Depressions occur because of many situations like  economic social psychological and many more.   the biggest issue with depression is that a person looks pretty normal and happy but from inside he's not well i.e, mentally he's not healthy. There are so many people in depression and they are not aware of it and if they know they are depressed they don't share it with others as there is a stigma in the society especially Indian society. In India if you tell your parents/friends that you want to
