Lives Vs Economy ( Corona Lessons from India)
Hello everyone .yesterday while we were browsing the internet, we saw two crazy videos from India .
The first video showed a large number of people offering mass prayers in a mosque despite the Corona virus pandemic
In second video a police man was hitting people with a baton, who moved out of their homes during the Corona virus lockdown.
If we had not researched and did our homework properly, we too just like other people would be bashing India with a prejudiced mindset and saying to myself what the hell is happening in India.
Now when you look at the global news and international media you will only see news and events about India's response to covid-19 is mostly negative.
The internet will present the image of India's handling of situation of Corona virus infection spread in a very bad and unsatisfactory light.
You will see that the second biggest nation of this world has a very bad Corona virus situation.
You will see that this second most populated country is failing miserably during the covid-19 pandemic but the numbers say something different .
To my surprise, India, the densely populated nation has one of the lowest per capita covid-19 patients in the world and
that is why it is important to analyse and ponder yourself that why India could be doing way better then most developed countries to fight the Corona virus spread.
1.India didn't underestimate the global crisis and took the
virus very seriously .
2 unlike other countries India imposed one of the biggest lockdown in the history of this planet earth.
3 Over 1.3 billion people were restricted in their homes in order to save their lives. Now that is an extreme measure which take giant guts that maybe Mr.Donald trump ,the president of the most powerful nation didn't show.
4 India imposed this lockdown at a very early stage when there were only 600 cases in the whole country.
5.Their seriousness towards the lives of Indian citizens made t
deserves huge respect.
The extreme measures that this second most populated nation took were indeed the need of the hour and it did paid off.
It paid off to save millions of life of people in India.
It paid off in spreading awareness among Indian people about the virus.
It paid off to make most of the Indian people adhere to the lockdown in order to save lives and curb infection in initial stages.
It paid off in slowing down the spread rate of covid-19 infection.
The airport international flights all were put on hault and this extreme measure is really commendable for a country which is so big. Many Indian students who was studying in Chinese universities and colleges rescued and brought back to India as a quick measure. India started heavy security checks and monitored body temperatures of all all people coming back from abroad. Those people who were suspected to have infection were quarantined immediately.
While on the other hand America could not gather guts to put it's countrymen in a complete lockdown like India and America is paying the price of this non seriousness for covid-19 virus.
In comparison the United States was much slower in imposing the lockdown and it is still not having the full nation lockdown.
It's nothing to be proud of but America has a global record for highest number of Corona deaths in twenty four hours and that's a global record to be ashamed of.
According to latest worlometer data ,number of deaths due to Corona virus are as follows:
USA-47750
Italy- 24648
Iran- 5391
China-4642
India -768,
Now I think that there are a lot of lessons that many countries can learn from both India and USA.
Lesson number 1- it is sometimes important to take extreme measures in order to to save lives.
Lesson number 2 -lives of citizens is much precious then country's economy.
Lesson number 3 -sometimes it's OKAY to be surrounded with germs in order to develop natural immunity as some scientist claim that India is benefiting because of herd immunity in this Corona virus pandemic.
Lesson number 4- in many countries like India and Japan there is a BCG vaccine given to babies within 24 hours of their birth in order to curb tuberculosis in them and and those countries who have these BCG vaccines given are showing lesson number of covid-19 cases in comparison to the countries like Netherland where no BCG vaccine is given to babies.
Although these claims are not fully confirmed yet but still the world can learn a lot from India.
DATA FOR NUMBER OF CONFIRMED COVID-19 CASES IN SOME POPULAR COUNTRIES ACROSS THE GLOBE.
United States 852703 confirmed covid-19 cases
Italy -187327 confirmed covid-19 cases
United Kingdom-133495 confirmed covid-19 cases
Iran- 85996 confirmed covid-19 cases
China-84287 confirmed covid-19 cases
Germany-150648 confirmed covid-19 cases.
India-20471 confirmed covid-19 cases
(All above data is taken from worlometer of Corona cases)
Now either you will be shocked to see this data or you would be wondering how this densely populated country is managing so well Amid the Corona virus pandemic crisis.
If you will search the internet you will only see 99% negative news about India because the developed countries don't accept their flaws and hidden interest and also they don't appreciate other countries .
But humane measures It's a good thing that being Indian do have some perks ( especially during this global crisis of Corona virus pandemic) and the biggest perk being that your life would be more important to the government then the country's economy.
Three cheers for India
