Is social distancing the new world order? - 5 minutes read
Coronavirus or Covid-19 has changed our lives forever.
One of the more popular phrases on everyone's lips these days is "the new normal". It's a catchphrase used to describe changes in our lives that are believed to be here to stay. Whether it's hand sanitizers, masks or avoiding crowds, a lot of people believe that coronavirus or Covid-19 has changed our lives forever.
Some of the ways in which we're likely to see change are how we live, work and play. But this is not necessarily all bad news as many businesses have adapted quickly by providing increased digital access and contactless delivery services that make shopping easier for consumers.
Life won't totally return to the way it was before. Our new normal will need to include provisions for living with this virus and being prepared for the long haul. We will need to learn how to manage things like working from home, online learning, remote communication and social distancing (if you don't already know what this means then read up).
The best way to fight this disease is to keep a safe distance from each other.
The best way to fight a disease is to keep a safe distance from each other. If you find yourself within 6 feet of someone who is sick, the CDC recommends that you wear personal protective equipment, including a face mask and gloves. If you do not have these supplies, avoid contact with others as much as possible until they are available. Keep in mind that social distancing is not the same thing as isolation. You may choose to go out and run errands while staying at least 6 feet away from others.
Social distancing can help stop the spread of the disease by reducing contact between people who are already infected and those who are not infected. By practicing it now, we can flatten the curve of this disease and make sure our hospitals aren't overwhelmed with patients all at once—which will allow us to save more lives in the long run!
Social distancing will now be a part of our daily lives.
Social distancing is no longer a temporary measure, it has become a permanent part of our daily lives. Physical distancing can help us stay safe and healthy during the coronavirus pandemic, especially if we follow the following rules:
Do not visit sick friends or family members in person.
When you have to go out to get groceries or fulfill other essential needs, keep at least 6 feet distance from others and wear a mask.
Clean your hands often with soap and water for at least 20 seconds. Use an alcohol-based hand sanitizer that contains at least 60% alcohol if soap and water are not available.
Personal hygiene and hand-washing are the new mantras of the day.
Hand-washing is one of the most effective ways of fighting against the spread of COVID‑19, and we all need to do our part in preventing its spread by washing our hands.
There are five key times when you should wash your hands:
_after you blow your nose, cough or sneeze_
_after you use the bathroom_
_before you eat_
_before and after preparing food_ (especially if serving vulnerable people such as seniors)
_when taking care of someone who is unwell_.
We need to understand that social distancing is not a suggestion but an order given by governments across the world.
The question is: Is social distancing the new world order?
If you’re like me, your initial response to this question would be: “No, it isn’t. Social distancing is a temporary measure to combat the COVID-19 pandemic and will end when the threat of the virus has passed.”
But after some careful thought, I came to realize that social distancing doesn’t have a definite end date. As long as there are viruses that can transmit from humans to other humans (and vice versa), there will always be some form of social distancing in place.
We need to understand that social distancing is not a suggestion but an order given by governments across the world. It's not a law but rather a government directive or mandate, just like orders such as compulsory military duty or mandatory lockdowns in times of war.
With this approach we can definitely defeat this deadly virus without harming our loved ones and our own health.
As we don’t know the time duration of this pandemic, it is not feasible for us to stay home completely. Some people are doing their jobs by staying home and some are doing their duties by going out in this pandemic. If you have any duty to do then you should go out but before that make your mind strong that you won’t be afraid of meeting anyone because if you will meet someone then he may also give you the virus. But, one thing is very clear that no one can defeat corona with fear and weakness, so just be mentally strong and defeat this deadly virus by self-isolating yourself from others.
Social distancing will help us stop the spread of coronavirus!
Social distancing is the best way you can help stop the spread of coronavirus and flatten the curve.
Social distancing will help keep hospitals from being overwhelmed with patients and allow sick people to get the oxygen they need.
Social distancing will also help us get back to normal sooner. Scientists predict that if we don't stop doing businesses as usual, the epidemic could last a year or more. Practicing social distancing now means that we can go back to our day-to-day activities in a matter of months instead of years!
