In 2019, the world faced a tragic incident that affected humanity adversely, and still, the world is facing its impacts. A virus broke out from Wuhan, a province of China, at early stages. It was thought to be a regular virus like other diseases, but later on, it started spreading throughout the world, which came to know that this was a pandemic. It was given the name " Covid-19" WHO began to find its origin so that its vaccine could be produced, and scientists came to know that it was started from the bat.
At early stages, some precautionary measures were taken due to the unavailability of vaccines. Different labs were starting tests on this virus to produce a vaccine, and it took one year to produce a vaccine for Covid-19. Other countries manufactured other vaccines
• Pfizer................USA
• Sinovac.............china
• Sinopharm........china
• EpiVac corona...Russia
• CanSino covid...china
• Pak Vac.............Pakistan
But till the time vaccine was produced, precautionary measures were adopted, but it could no longer stop the spreading of covid-19, and it got out of control. To encounter this problem, the world had to take some serious actions, and lockdowns were imposed in all countries, adversely affecting our daily life activities.
1. Social life:
Due to lockdown and social distance, social life was affected badly. People were confined to their houses and could not meet their friends and relatives, and their social circle was contracted.
2. Daily wagers:
Shops and markets were closed, and work at construction sites was stopped. All those who have to work daily to fulfill their daily needs had to live hand to mouth.
3. Business/Industries:
Businesses and Industries were closed due to lockdown.
Production was ceased, and industries had to bear the significant loss. The worker had to quit initiatives due to long-term closure.
4. Entertainment:
People had to stay at home, and they got bored because parks, zoos, cinemas, and picnic spots were closed to avoid gathering.
5. Education:
The education system was poorly affected. Schools had to remain close for a more extended period. Sometimes, schools were opened for a short time, and again government had to close schools to encounter Covid-19 spreading. Long-term breaks in education affected students' learning process. The world had to move towards an online education system that remained successful during this pandemic era.
6. Sports:
A healthy body has a healthy mind, and for a healthy body but due to covid-19 grounds were closed and sports activities were ceased. Olympic 2020 was delayed for one and a half years due to covid-19, organized in July 2021.
7. Economy:
To encounter Covid-19, the lockdown was imposed, but it had severe effects on the country's economy. Due to imbalances in export and imports, countries had to face an economic crisis, resulting in rising poverty, inflation, and food shortage.
8. Unemployment:
Due to the closure of markets, businesses, and industries, professional opportunities were decreased, and unemployment increased.
PRECAUTIONARY MEASURES:
Different preventive measures were adopted to encounter the issue of Covid-19.
• People were forced to wear masks during their daily life activities to prevent the spreading of covid-19.
• Vaccination was made mandatory for offices, schools, test centers, traveling, visiting banks, markets, and routine work to increase immunity against Covid-19.
• Lockdown was imposed all over the world to prevent spreading and save people's lives.
• Social distancing of 3m was made compulsory.
These efforts proved fruitful; although the preventive measures could not eliminate coronavirus, they prevented the virus from spreading fast.
Now the world has manufactured vaccines. All those countries which have produced the covid-19 vaccine after vaccinating their public now are supplying the Covid-19 vaccine to those countries which have not yet paid for their covid-19 vaccine.
This is hoping that soon humans will succeed in eliminating coronavirus.
