We didn't know about the term "Coronavirus" before February. Since, when it was spread in China, so many other neighboring countries already started taking precautions. But, as it is said, “the things that tend to happen, do happen,” no matter what precautions are taken and how much we try to avoid the circumstances.
Anyhow, despite taking all the precautionary measures, the pandemic reached Pakistan as well and put everyone under its fear in no time. However, it took a bit long for people to realize the seriousness of this viral disease that was already taking lives silently. With this, the government took a timely decision of implementing lockdown everywhere.
But, unfortunately, the lockdown didn't affect the Pakistani nation and what I came across that people were moving in and out with no care. Hence, the number of cases is increasing in Pakistan on a daily basis. So, people are bounded to stay at homes, with no security of lives, and no money in hand.
Impact of Pandemic on Lives
What I was thinking and observing that things would become more difficult to handle once the pandemic ends. Well, in lockdown, plenty of people have lost their jobs, and most importantly, it is majorly affecting the poor clan of society.
- Since the people are inside the home, a few of them are not crying openly for their problems in front of others. Recently, I was scrolling down the social media, and what made my fingers stop was the news of a woman's suicide attempt, who killed herself just because of poverty. It was really heartbreaking for me. But, at the same time, I paid the immense gratitude to ALLAH, that we are capable of feeding ourselves even by sitting at home.
- Moreover, the thinking and perception about life might get changed. People, previously used to see the world differently. But now, there is a feeling in everyone’s heart that nothing is for good. Everything ends, even lives when it is the time.
- Plus, the reality of the world and people have become more vivid. This pandemic has immensely changed the minds of the people. Some people became more sensitive towards life and for the people around. However, others opted to become more selfish and try to maintain their worldly life without caring for others.
- Not only this, the Covid-19 may have a great impact on the economical values and stats of the countries. According to the studies, different governments may collapse and others would emerge more profoundly.
- Also, the new businesses may arise and the more established business will face the problems and downfall.
- The luxuries become less important and the necessities mark the significance. For the time being, clothing and other accessories lost their value and importance. Although, the groceries and basic needs became more mandatory.
- Traveling business is actually disturbed and everyone prefers to be in their home town.
- The lockdown has some positive impacts as well. For instance, nature is recovered and the ozone layer is coming back to its original face. Moreover, the earth is breathing and shaking less than before. Again, the air is clean and fresh.
- According to the news, the oil price collapsed (maybe good news for the consumers), and much more.
Therefore, life would take a new turn. ALLAH's plans, ALLAH knows the best!
Final Thoughts:
Whatever, the circumstances you are facing, try to be positive as the negativity only leads to the bad endings. Stay home, stay safe, and don’t forget to follow precautionary measures. In the end, take care of your families and surroundings.
