The World Pandemic Corona Consciousness: Measures and Considerations

How lack of consciousness, responsibility, activism, vigilance and other sorts of

security and safety measures can initiate an unprecedented, overwhelming and
disastrous catastrophe in the global scale has been vivid, real, ruthless and
surprising in the recent worldwide pandemic of SARS-COV-2 or COVID-19
Novel Coronavirus causing massive death and destruction, especially in China,
Italy, USA and other affected and going to be affected regions, nations, sectors and
countries of the globe.

Pathetically, catastrophically and ruthlessly, this ongoing global pandemic has

been resulted from supposedly non-human creatures like bats as like as plague
epidemic, evolved from some sorts of mice where this catastrophe has endangered,
threatened and trembled the entire globe and humanity with its Weapons of mass
destruction (WMD), a rare reality besides the second world war and other sorts of
natural and man-made calamities and complexities.

Though novel corona virus has been evolved from China, an emerging economic,
political and global agent, it has evoked a global disaster and huge death-toll amid
tremendous lockdown, crackdown and breakdown in different countries where it’s
now indeterminable, incalculable and incredible how much havoc, death,
destruction and calamities it will have left through its dinosaur-like, gigantic and
mammoth sweeping, circulation, spread and dance.

Though supposedly and reportedly evolved from a trifling, insignificant and tiny
incident in the city of Wuhan of Hubei province, an area of economic wonder,
China, eventually it has been spreading overwhelmingly across the globe defeating
the invincible and hard-reachable regions, forces, giants with its flying colours,
monstrous haphazardness and tidal submerging.

It seems that the dancing and spiraling tidal waves of Atlantic ocean have been
advancing sweeping, submerging and annihilating all and around where it also
seems that an extinct Dinosaur has been revived trembling, thundering and dancing
the existing establishments, flora and fauna.

It is also deemed that Alexander the great has been overwhelmingly advancing
winning the provinces, kingdoms and forces through air, water, land and
underwater where it can be assumed that a little germ has been advancing infecting
through all the pieces of flora, fauna, nature and artificial establishments as like as
a seemingly unpreventable weapon of germs and micro-organisms.

The World War two hadn’t been able to traumatize the world, especially the
western world; the tsunami in the Indian ocean was not capable of waving the
eastern world; the global epidemic like SARS, plague, Ebola, cholera, flu etc.
haven’t the ability to initiate tumultuous massacre and genocide at a global scale.

The recent ongoing traumatizing catastrophe surely, certainly and eventually has
been a result of lack of consciousness, awareness, whimsical habits and lifestyles,
behavioural irregularity and haphazardness, irresponsible and ignorant code of
conduct etc. since we , the human beings, haven’t been conscious, pragmatic and
sensible enough to secure and sterilize our life and surroundings with a view to
ensuring our good, sound and hygienic survival, existence and advancement
throughout the ages.

It has been pathetically unleashed that the countries of the world especially and
ironically the economically viable nations aren’t conscious, ready, vigilant,
competent and rational enough to safeguard their people, flora, fauna and all sorts
of arrangements, facts and factors in and out of any natural or artificial disaster and
catastrophe.

China has been crying, repenting, losing, traumatizing and retrieving their lives,
livelihood, lifestyle and survival where Italy now can’t determine what to do and
what their lot is going to be amid this annihilating and destructive human and non-
human catastrophe.

Europe has been threatened mostly with Novel Corona Virus after China when
USA, Iran, Pakistan, India, Spain and nearly all of the countries of the globe have
been overwhelmingly affected, destructed and demolished through this global
pandemic in 2019-20.
Symptoms of COVID-2019:
If you develop emergency warning signs for COVID-19 get medical attention
immediately. Emergency warning signs include*:

 Difficulty breathing or shortness of breath

 Persistent pain or pressure in the chest
 New confusion or inability to arouse
 Bluish lips or face

*This list is not all inclusive. Please consult your medical provider for any other
symptoms that are severe or concerning.

RECOMMENDATIONS AND ADVICE :

During previous outbreaks due to other coronavirus (Middle-East Respiratory

Syndrome (MERS) and Severe Acute Respiratory Syndrome (SARS), human-to-
human transmission occurred through droplets, contact and fomites, suggesting
that the transmission mode of the 2019-nCoV can be similar. The basic principles
to reduce the general risk of transmission of acute respiratory infections include the
following:
• Avoiding close contact with people suffering from acute respiratory infections.
• Frequent hand-washing, especially after direct contact with ill people or their
environment.
• Avoiding unprotected contact with farm or wild animals.
• People with symptoms of acute respiratory infection should practice cough
etiquette (maintain distance, cover coughs and sneezes with disposable tissues or
clothing, and wash hands).
• Within healthcare facilities, enhance standard infection prevention and control
practices in hospitals, especially in emergency departments.
WHO does not recommend any specific health measures for travellers. In case of
symptoms suggestive of respiratory illness either during or after travel, travellers
are encouraged to seek medical attention and share their travel history with their
healthcare provider.
This recent humanitarian disaster and catastrophe has questioned the sincerity,
consciousness, rationality, knowledge-ability, cleanliness, sense of goodness,
soundness, ethics and such types of good features among human beings,
considered as sensible, rational and knowledgeable ones when the entire globe has
been tremendously, overwhelmingly and incredibly struggling, facing and striving
to survive and continue their inheritance for the future.

WHO’s strategic objectives for this response are to:

• Limit human-to-human transmission including reducing secondary

infections among close contacts and health care workers, preventing
transmission amplification events, and preventing further
international spread from China;
• Identify, isolate and care for patients early, including providing
optimized care for infected patients;
• Identify and reduce transmission from the animal source;
• Address crucial unknowns regarding clinical severity, extent of
transmission and infection, treatment options, and accelerate the
development of diagnostics, therapeutics and vaccines;
• Communicate critical risk and event information to all
communities and counter misinformation;
• Minimize social and economic impact through multisectoral
partnerships.

This can be achieved through a combination of public health

measures, such as rapid identification, diagnosis and management of
the cases, identification and follow up of the contacts, infection
prevention and control in healthcare settings, implementation of
health measures for travellers, awareness- raising in the population
and risk communication.

The regions, the nations, the countries, the organizations and other concerned and
responsible entities of the globe have been struggling, striving and fighting against
this worldwide Novel Corona Virus pandemic in their attempts, endeavour,
initiatives and action plans where there are massive and unprecedented lockdown,
crackdown and breakdown of economic, educational, religious, official and other
arrangements.

World financial recession in the first decade of this new century seems to be a neo-
natal crisis before this globally significant pandemic as it has been affecting almost
all of the countries of the globe in varying degrees and dimensions of death,
deadlock, havoc and severe emergency.

Micro and macro-level initiatives, activism, dynamism, work-plans, action-plans

and many more have been vital, essential, necessary, urgent and important to
secure and safeguard the world since it’s imperative and unavoidable to rethink, re-
judge, re-experiment and re-evaluate the life, lifestyle, habit, behaviour, thought
and other aspects, features and characteristics of ensuring and strengthening the
good, sound, ethical and sustainable survival, existence and continuation of human
race and other elements of nature and the world.
As conscious human beings, we hope and pray that this unprecedented epidemic,
catastrophe and emergency will postpone its unpreventable race and spread in the
near future by dint of humanitarian steps and initiatives and by the grace of nature
and the almighty creator though it will have remained its remnants and memoirs of
much death and destruction in the entire globe creating much fables, myths,
gossips and stories of fear, death, panic and annihilation.

We, the human beings, needn’t be panicked, frustrated and rumoured amid the
global pandemic Novel corona virus, rather we should, must and need to come
forward to face, fight, intervene and role out this COVID-19 corona virus with
individual, holistic and all types of efforts and activism in the near future.

It’s a light of hope that various regions and countries have succeeded in the
invention of its vaccine and other types of good, sound and appropriate medication
measures to neutralize and negate the effects and impact of this disastrous
catastrophe happening in 2020 though it’s evident from the incredible death-toll
and catastrophe that the regions, nations and countries of the world must, should
and need to be sincere, sensible, vigilant and prepared enough to fight and combat
these sorts of local and global epidemic, catastrophe and disaster now and in the
near future, especially resulting from climate change, natural and artificial
complications and calamities.
