Humanity received a big slap in the face
It’s been a while since humanity came across with the new enemy, the virus, which took over the world. Thousands of people died and got infected with Covid 19. The virus spreads fast and some of the symptoms are hard to detect, that’s why it turned into a global pandemic in less than two months. We live in 21st century, how could we not stop this earlier? What did we do to deserve such a huge disaster?
Let’s start with people who avoid responsibilities. When the virus started to spread the biggest recommendation was to stay home, not to travel or visit crowded places and if you feel bad see a doctor, but most of the people did not perceive Corona virus as something important and dangerous. They continued their lives and now we see where it took us.
I want to discuss how unready the government was against the virus. I can’t say anything negative about Georgia’s government, but in Europe, where democracy, medicine, civic order is on some other levels, Covid 19 turned everything upside down. Their system did not work against the virus and it showed people that even in developed countries, we are not ready for big disasters. I believe that we are lucky, because we can somehow cure the virus and save most of infected people, but what would happen if it was more dangerous and caused death immediately? This virus somehow showed that we are not protected and hopefully it will make the world leaders create a new plan when we come across with this kind of diseases again.
I hope we will get over this soon and this experience will make the world a safer place.
