Days of this pandemic

Lifestyle diseases or non communicable diseases were the most commonly discussed topics before January 2020. Now there is no topic other than COVID-19. Lockdowns and restriction everywhere no rushing to catch up with office- time, no fights and no pollution. now there is wave of unlocking and things are resuming to their regular life. Work from home, online meets and digital transactions is a new life style. Mobiles and computers are media for connectivity. Less of physical movements. More of digital work. More work for eyes, more work for ears. No physical activity eating, talking on phone, watching web series, listening to old archives is new life for more than 6 months. 

People talk to each other, time for friends to chat and to form virtual group. Share time with spouse and children. Sharing experiences, taking webinars, attending webinars there by adding to your knowledge and information are also part of this new life. Since it is not predictable to ease out the situation this pattern seems to be a part of new life. 

People eat more of food prepared at home, no servants no maids so people work. All this reduced indigestion, acidity and regurgitation. Less medication less side effects. All reduced the work of doctors. But at COViD centres doctors are overworked. Less of traffic low traffic accidents less casualties. There is a fear of getting infected by Corona virus, isolation and spending for our carelessness. 

No clashes no arguments no littering and no fights. Life superficially calm yet unrestful. No saloons no spa, no gym and no undue matters in court of law.

less work to doctors less work to police stations, more work to COVID task force. Apparently healthy in the house and greatly worrisome when you visit to stores

No new mantra from this blog, no solution in this post.
