Coronavirus or covid-19 has wrecked havoc in the whole world. This new virus believed to have originated in the wet market of Wuhan , China, has baffled the scientists of the world. The theory given in public domain is that the virus got transferred in the human body when a person ate an under cooked bat. The virus contains streams of both RNA and DNA and has an incubation period of 14 days.

Symptoms of this virus include –

• cough
• fever
• tiredness
• difficulty breathing

If anyone experiences these symptoms , they must consult their doctor.

Due to the fear of the virus , many countries have gone under lockdown impacting the world economy severely. But this is the best option available as presently there is no vaccine for this virus. The scientist are working on the vaccine but it may take few months as it is a new virus. During these difficult times , some people are spreading rumours claiming falsely that they have found the cure of this disease. Ignorant and sometimes even educated people fall for these rumours and create new unwanted problems for the medical staff. In Iran , a rumour that drinking methanol poison can cure the novel coronavirus claimed the lives of 27 people and affected thousands. Around 75% of the news we recieve on Social Media is false. So before believing these news we must first see its authentica

China , which was the origin of this deadly virus has relaxed the lockdown in Wuhan city , the epicentre of this disease. Moreover China has cured 90% of its infected patients drawing suspicion from across the world that this new virus was a bilogical weapon prepared in Chinese laboratories. The virus was also confined to Wuhan region as the rest of China functioned normally. Also in another shocking event , China wants Italy to buy back its ventilators which were given to them earlier by Italy as a donation.

People must stay at home and stay away from large gathering if they wish to stay healthy. This contagious virus has rapidly spread as the total cases worldwide have mounted to 1 million with United States being the leader with 350 thousand cases. Italy , Spain , China , France , Germany and Iran are other severely affected countries. The global death toll is nearing 50,000 and is rising day by day. But it is not impossible to survive if affected. It all comes down to ones immunity and will power. This is why the aged people and small children are more at risk.

The virus has also uncovered the unpreparedness of the countries in dealing with such solutions. Countries invest their economy mainly in war equipments and ignore healthcare and this is the reason we are facing such pandemic. The world is still not ready for another outbreak of a disease. We just hope that the countries learn from this dreadful experience and take measures to avoid such situations.

The thing we have seen in the past few days is that nature is healing itself as humans are in lock down. Pollution levels have come down significantly and air has become purer. Today , humans are in cages and animals are roaming freely. Mother Earth is healing itself as Ozone layer has started recovering at a more faster rate and the rising global temperatures have slowed their pace. We must consider this as a warning that if we don’t pay attention to mother nature , it will destroy us only.

In the end I would advise my readers to stay inside and avoid large gatherings. We must learn from this chaos and spend time with our family.

STAY HOME , STAY SAFE
