Does Corona deserve the attention it is receiving?

Coronavirus has taken the world by storm, and it’s a once in a lifetime event. Never had the
surroundings been so silent and it’s all because of the lockdown imposed throughout the country. The
measures taken by the government behind this issue is courageous and applaudable since it was the
need of the hour, what has done wrong is that it has irked the citizens from the lower strata of society.

The daily wage workers who migrated to various parts of the country for a better future were stuck
there without family. Since transportation wasn’t allowed for the general public, they had no
option but to stay there. The plight of workers led other people to question the actions of the government.


Some people went on to say that the government should have made everyone aware of its decision while
other went on to point out how the common men were suffering and bureaucrats returning from
Abroad were roaming around freely.

There have been concerns regarding the activities of government as well, for instance, deaths due to hunger.
Has crossed around 1million mark per year still nothing permanent was done while coronavirus with a mortality rate of less than 3% was considered overhyped by many. Many people came down to give
their opinion regarding the same with the prevailing notion being that the government doesn’t care
about the poor but about the rich, had it been a disease to be transmitted among the poor people living
in unhygienic conditions without sufficient amenities, the government wouldn’t have dared to give a
Damn about it.


We can always interpret any outcome positively or negatively, it depends wholly on the mindset.
And thinking of the onlookers. Considering the large population of India and lack of medical.
facilities, the situation would become outrageous, and the nationwide lockdown might be painful for
most of the people out there, It was indeed the need of the hour, and it’s the vaccine which can come
Handy fighting the exponentially growing ‘Coronavirus’.
