The person who always made fun of COVID-19, and remained in denial mode apparently ignoring the serious implications of the Global pandemic have to adopt 'a face Mark'--One could see the visible terror on his face. The villain of the world or the little terrorist is going to stay with us. Today 12.8 million people are reported to have infected with it the actual number would be beyond our imagination. The reported death is 5.46 lakhs... the actual numbers are still a mystery. Even if 0.1% (one out of 1000) people died of this disease in the coming one year (by the time we will see some vaccine in the market) -- the total death figure could as high as 78 lakhs.
COVIOD-19 is a very weak but highly contagious virus rather the highest contagious virus ever know to menkind in the recorded history. So should we fight it our or sit at home and wait for our tur to come.
I will say non of the two. (1) Know your enemy, Know weaknesses of your enemy, and (3) Fight it out.. thats' what I have learnt in my college NCC training-- mostly taught to the army personnel in detail.
Know your Enemy:
Coronavirus disease (COVID-19) is an infectious disease caused by a newly discovered coronavirus. Most people infected with the COVID-19 virus will experience mild to moderate respiratory illness and recover without requiring special treatment. Older people and those with underlying medical problems like cardiovascular disease, diabetes, chronic respiratory disease, and cancer are more likely to develop serious illness.
About
80% of confirmed cases recover from the disease without any serious
complications. However, one out of every six people who get COVID-19 can
become seriously ill* and develop difficulty in breathing. In more severe
cases, the infection can cause severe pneumonia and other complications which can
be treated only at higher-level facilities (District Hospitals and above). In a
few cases, it may even cause death.
What is the Weaknesses of COVID-19 how we can fight with it?
COVID-19 spreads mainly by droplets produced as a result of coughing or sneezing of a COVID-19 infected person. This can happen in two ways: Š Direct close contact: one can get the infection by being in close contact with COVID-19 patients (within one Metre of the infected person), especially if they do not cover their face when coughing or sneezing. Š Indirect contact: the droplets survive on surfaces and clothes for many days. Therefore, touching any such infected surface or cloth and then touching one’s mouth, nose or eyes can transmit the disease. The incubation period of COVID 19 (time between getting the infection and showing symptoms) is 1 to 14 days Some people with the infection, but without any serious symptoms can also spread the disease.
- First thing that you are very lucky as it was diagnosed in time. Unfortunately, in 60 -70 % cases people do not get to know of it and keep spreading it to their near and dear ones.
ISOLATE yourself and listen to very light music of your choice (it would relax your brain from tensions) and all your organs would fight against CORONA. Forget all the worries of the world and only think positive to cure yourself. Always remember a person with tension free mind recovers 50 % faster than a person with tension so shun unnecessary worldly tensions.
Besides following the instructions of COVID 19, follow the INSTRUCTIONS OF COVID-19 EXPERT DOCTORS, You must be in regular touch with your family physician or a doctor you trust. Apprise him of every development and REMEMBER YOUR FAMILY PHYSICIAN KNOW YOU FOR AGES, HE KNOWS ABOUT YOUR BODY MORE THAN YOU AND WILL HELP YOU UNDERSTANDING THE TREATMENT GIVEN BY A COVID-19 DOCTOR.
STRICTLY FOLLOW THE PREVENTIVE MEASURES AS MENTIONED. AND FOLLOW ALL THE INSTRUCTIONS GIVEN BY YOUR COVID-19 DOCTOR and family physician..
KEEP HYGIENE DO NOT ENTERTAIN ANYONE EVEN YOUR FAMILY MEMBERS. DO NOT SHARE ANYTHING with your family members WHICH MAY CREATE PANIC AMONG YOUR DEAR ONES.
NO ONE GUARANTEE THAT all these things would save you from COVID-19, but it is also a fact that your chances of entering into THE CLLUB of “COVID-19 DEAD” would reduce substantially.
Ends.
