With over 10 million cases of coronavirus disease (Covid-19) across the world, states are battling the most severe public health emergency in a century. The most preferred route to this is lockdown , they are not the best way but it gives us an opportunity to break the chain.
Everyone has mixed feelings about the lockdown , some feel it has been a wonderful experience for them to spend time with their families and some feel suffocated to be at their homes 24/7. Its not bad to feel either way. Some people took time from their schedule to learn new things and some just want to enjoy their time by binge watching series on Netflix. Overall my social interactions are almost over, there is only one friend who I have met throughout this lockdown. Before all this my most of day was spent outside the house literally it was like I used to come home for food and sleep.
My whole schedule has changed these days, earlier I was mostly outside the house and now I am mostly not even outside my bed. Its like sleep has taken over my life and its the only skill I am left with. And by the way, why doesn’t anyone talk about the problems faced by people wearing masks and the spectacles at the same time. We really need to talk about that.
For now we can just wish that this ends and everybody can get back to their normal lives. One thing is for sure that this wont be happening anytime soon. The end of the lockdown will not lead to normalcy, but will create a “new normal”.
