The Pandemic and the Paraphrenalia

The whole world has been suffering from COVID-19 pandemic since January 2020. Many people have been infected and some have also lost their lives.

From a state of rapid increase in the disease, without any know-how to contain it, to a situation where we have our own vaccine, India has come a very long way. But from hereon, what is it that we need to do? 

Many people have continued to show irresponsible behavior ever since the pandemic started. We have not been maintaining social distancing, people are visiting markets and shopping malls. They have also not been going for corona tests even if they have symptoms of the disease. Most of them are not ready to take the vaccine as well. 

I request everyone not to be careless at any point in time. 

Please wash your hands regularly, wear a mask whenever meeting anyone, maintain 6 feet distance and most importantly stay inside as much as possible.
