So what is
quarantine?
According to
me we all are suffering from a worldwide issue which is covid nineteen or in
laymen language the new corona virus which is very harmful. This has caused a
havoc all around the world and has affected more than a million people.
Though the
mortality rate of this virus is quite low but it is very contagious and spreads
a lot faster than even compared to a common cold.
So due to this
terrible condition the countries in order to protect their citizens have
announced lock-down which basically means that the whole world is under
lock-down. This is where quarantine comes in, we the people are now quarantined
which means we have to avoid social gatherings whatsoever and stay at home to
follow social distancing. As this virus is new we don’t have any cure or say
antidote for it as such till date.
The only
thing we can do is stay at our home and thus protect the world. Now that we are
quarantined what we should be doing is that we should do all the things we
thought we didn’t get enough time for. Now is the time to develop new hobbies
and to perfect the old ones. This is the time in which we can do whatever we
want without any restrictions and now that we have ample of time we can invest
our time to develop new skills, learn new languages and if you want to play
games you can do that too. Now is the time we have our freedom and by doing
such things by staying in our we are unknowingly contributing to the safety of
the whole world.
Schools and colleges are also closed but is it something to be
sad about, we always wanted holidays not in
a restrictive time as now but still we should be looking at the positive
side of this phase and do something productive
and positive which would surely contribute to our world. Also we should
be grateful and obliged that we are safe in our houses while the doctors and
army officers are still working for us, the heroes which are fictional are not the
real heroes but these people are the real heroes as they risk out their
precious lives in order to protect ours.
What we
should do is support our family in whichever way we can irrespective of the
judgement and difference of opinions on the gender of the person. Whether it be
a boy or a girl he or she should be willing to help the elders in the chores as
there is no other hope of support from any other person other than the people
from the family. We should act like responsible global citizens and help our
mothers daughters and sisters in this chaotic situation so that no one is
stressed out.This is the
period where we are isolated and should help each other though it feels like we
are trapped in our houses but we should
be considerate enough to understand that we can overcome this problem only we
stay supportive to each other and take in the measures for our own safety in
order to help ourselves as well as others.
All in all
this is not the time to cry about things and make the problems even worse but
it is the time when we should be strong and take all necessary measures to be
safe and also we should invest our precious time to enlighten our self with
knowledge and be a perfectionist in whatsoever field we want to be in. This is
when we can prove ourselves and at the same time do good to the whole world.
