COVID-19. A mysterious malady, which, till a few months ago, was limited to a small Chinese province, has suddenly snowballed into a hydra-headed monster, rapidly swallowing up one country after another in its deadly jaws. The biggest of powers have been left bewildered, and collectively, the human race seems to be on the brink of devastation, both economically as well as physically.
The medical fraternity is grappling to understand the temperament of a tiny virus which attacks humans indiscriminately while sparing all animals. The contagion travels via the saliva, phlegm, or droplets of sneeze or cough of the infected, making it super easy for it to spread its tentacles.
More than a hundred thousand people have died worldwide and 18 hundred thousand have been infected, with the count still rising. Governments all over the globe are resorting to indefinite lockdowns to break the virus’s cycle, focusing only on the present, as our collective future hangs in suspension.
Suddenly, nothing is important to us anymore. We don’t need to shop, travel, hoard, party, gossip, splurge, indulge in addictions, fight, or make loads of money. Locked inside our homes, we are realising the value of all that which really matters to us. Our life, health, loved ones, basic food, and clean air and water.
