 CORONA CRISIS : WHERE WE ARE

 

Hello my lovely intellectual friends, who just show some trust and give their precious time to check my  blogs so it does become my  responsibility also if you are giving yours  valuable time, in the end one should feel that have not wasted time & learnt something new if not new then some thing presented in new manner.

I  am just trying my best to bring food for thoughts and brain and add some value to our lives as a human being. Today I am here with this biggest disaster of humanity Corona or novel COVID-19 now has  become like  companion which  we don’t like, but we have to bear it kind of tragic comedy J  till vaccine get approved and get launched in the market. Scientists all over the world  including ours are constantly working to finalise the  vaccine for this most challenging Corona monster which is constantly changing its appearance (mutation) it is undergoing.

Symptoms like sore throat, breathing problem, fever which were the preliminary diagnostic criteria getting disappeared. In some patients loss of smell sense, even in some case in India one old lady just went to consult about her loss of appetite. Doctor just for  precautions prescribed Corona test and surprisingly she was found to be positive. Day by day symptoms are getting changed in some people diarrhoea, gastro intestinal problems are also being observed.

Earlier most of us have perception that age group more than 60 & less than 10 are more prone to it and mortality rate is higher only in the comorbid conditions but now this is also not the case in many cases 20-45 yrs also got infected and died. Even after getting cured different problems like loss of memory, headache &  joint pains were observed that affects Quality of life of the person. In India we have crossed the 9.6 million cases (updated) mark we had reached the second rank all over the world that was expected also because of high population density. But still positive point is recovery  rate is also high.

Now what the solution is? Now a days more cases are asymptomatic you never know whether the person standing next to you is positive or not. It had been found few get cured by themselves but can affect others with lower immunity. It is just the prevention  & precautions ie. Maintain social distancing actually it  is physically distant, washing hands, using  sanitizer, not only wearing  mask  but wearing it properly I have personally observed some body is wearing it in neck, some don’t cover nose properly. Mask had been proved as the most important defender. But people are not following precautions because of ignorance and some because of over confidence, they can’t be infected they possess very good immunity..

Still positive points in this situation are that people had become more compassionate & empathetic. They realized that life is unpredictable in this situation during lockdown people felt the importance of family and home. Every one is doing charity at their own level.We being Indians possess naturally more immunity, vaccinations at early age also protected us more to some extent. During this crisis India has evolved again as Vishwa guru because of our rich culture of  Ayurveda and yoga. It was so proud to hear as Indian  that in White house Yoga session and Yagya  are being performed . Few days back I saw one article that our home remedy honey for throat infection found to be more effective then many antibiotics It’s a very good news in the time when antibiotic resistance had become a challenge . Western people are following us on the path of minimalism, Ayurveda and yoga. So we should do daily yoga, skip junk food  as various research had proved our Indian food is the most healthy one.

I always prefer to write in brief but this time  it got lengthier and still feel few things left. So just want to conclude with take home message: Stay safe, healthy and boost your immune system with yoga & natural herbs like tulsi, giloy etc.

Even this too shall pass :)
