Maintaining safety measures after pandemic for human -economical- resources

[BIT-BENDER]

A nation economy can be sustained/revived by a sustainable human resources -work force-. Human resources are browbeat by
+ Disease and sickness like the covid-19
+ War,
+ drought,
+ disaster,
+ Mortality and more

For flourishing economy, nations should sort means to preserve there human resources -work force-, the pandemic covid-19 has begot a drop In human resources, some ill and at worse mortality rate rises  It has been dark times around the world.
To curtail the spread of the virus world health organization -WHO- had given some guiding safety measures
+ Washing of hand - sanitizer or soap-
+ Social distancing
+ Cover your face while coughing
+ Wear a face mask
+ No hand shake, avoid touching facial orifices
This measures does not make you invisible to the corona virus.

  Now to my point there are other highly communicable diseases not just covid-19, disease like tuberculosis, Lassa fever, Ebola virus amongst other leaves you open to contacting them.
The safety measures to the covid-19 virus has made us more civilized and more aware to it dangers. Even my country where you take a bus and encounter more passenger than the bus can carry some standing and clustering now it's more civilized, you go to a restaurant, mall, bar and things are done with consideration to human health.

Measure like wearing of face mask might be asking for much but others can still be maintained for a better living.

My response to this will probably be: not everyone's an introvert...

Some people require physical contact from others, some people require conversations with other people to function normally/feel healthy day to day. I think for a lot of people, the past few months is going to be something they won't want to reflect on for a while.
There have been reports of a rise of non covid-linked deaths and I think the UK put the figure at 20000 from people not wanting to go to hospital to people commiting suicide because they're away from people for so long and don't want to go through the uncertainty. Not to mention a lot of socail media and annacdotal evidence of people who thought they wree being helpful by shouting at people for gathering with friends and socialising because they were being radicalised by their work or by the mainstream media (which sought to over dramaticise everything)...

More recently though, the idea of wearing medical grade face coverings after the pandemic is over could be a choice a lot of people will be able to make. Non medical grade stuff, I imagine, will have little effect on anything.

What do you mean by "not everyone's an introvert"? Do you think that introverts like to be alone and isolated forever?Do you think that keeping social distance for weeks can make someone depressed and even force him to commit suicide?
I don't get what's the main idea behind OP's forum thread.The human resources are important for every economy,but it was stated many times that COVID-19 is not that dangerous for young,strong and healthy people.COVID-19 is very dangerous for the old and sick people,which are not a part of the work force.

Those types of Protocols for safety measures have already been existing even well before the Covid19 pandemic. I do agree with your opinion that it has made more people realize that it’s essential to take care of Hygiene and be respectful towards other people in the same Environment as you by wearing face masks.

I cannot discredit the other type of sickness or disease when it comes to our lives because they still exist and it even possible to get affected by that but since the cause of the virus now is somewhat unknown to everyone, so it’s technically agreeable that There are economic effects due to that.

I think the best approach is to educate everyone about the possible casualties when it comes to the right protocols in place. It’s better safe than sorry.

It can for sure be done , but would people do it ?

You cannot just take responsibility for everyone , even a mistake of one person can cause problems to the whole locality.

It is always advisable to do these things even without the Corona virus , the malls , Restaurants are just taking those precautions now but it should have been a routine for them . These might as well prevent many communicable diseases and at the same time wearing masks while you are sick should be mandatory if you choose to go out.

Masks are to protect the infection from person wearing it mainly , therefore one should always take care of it . For more severe diseases we use N95 but unfortunately it's not feasible , so you can even dab while you are sneezing at least to reduce the airborne particular matter.

I am studying medicine so quite frequently we have to face situations like these even when its mandatory to touch the cadavers with gloves students often try and be cool , hold them in hands and take pictures, even though they are dipped in a solution which could literally even strip every living cell off , one should still follow the rules .

Plus if you are sick you have to actually go to the doctor with a mask , not coughing and sneezing. I agree with you 100% about doing these things even without the Corona pandemic. A pandemic should not the only one to teach you how to be hygienic .

[pakhitheboss]

Those are SOP's for all kinds of viral diseases If we follow them then we will never get infected by any virus. Although it sounds easy but it is certainly very hard to follow them.

We, humans, are social beings we need to communicate, and communicating some times can cause us to get infected from a virus. We can't always follow them as we might tend to forget them once in a while.

At the moment since we are hearing a lot of negative information about covid19 we are following the set SOP but as soon as a cure is out half of the world will forget about them.

Thanks @BIT-BENDER for sharing and reminding us once again.

[jossiel]

True. The pandemic has thought us a lot especially in hygiene. Before, people wouldn't care if they cough. They'll cough in an open area without covering their faces but now, everybody is likely to avoid that person if he's not too careful with his cough.

There's now an etiquette if we're in an open area or crowded area(soon). Although sadly, there are people that still think that those measures and protocols shouldn't be followed as it's a "conspiracy".

[abhiseshakana]

Along with the development of a pandemic, many assume that the pandemic problem is only related to health problems. But in reality, the outbreak of Covid-19 in many countries is related to broader social problems and spread to other problems, and affects the world economy and in some countries involves military institutions and security forces, to change the geopolitical constellation and world geostrategy.

Criticism of the Government for being deemed slow or wrong in addressing the Covid-19 issue has also entered political turmoil as well as calls for refraining from crowding and religious activities in places of worship that are associated with Communist teachings, and concerning ideological issues.

Population factor is one of the crucial factors in eradicating a pandemic and should be of particular concern to the government. The government must show that the government has been very serious in its command of facing a pandemic, although it must be in a repressive manner so that people are aware that obedience in following the pandemic protocol means saving others and themselves. Careless and indifferent actions can lead to death and also lead to other social, economic, political problems.

I think this is a one time thing. We saw such pandemics in past also but not much has happened to general human psychology of prevention. We take preventive measures only when necessary and once things are back to normal we generally throw these preventive measures away ourselves. Because if what you are saying was true there wouldn't have been covid pandemic at all people might have got much civilized after the Spanish flu but we all know that didn't happen. But yes there is one major communicable disease which needs to end and that is HIV for sure. it's deadly because people don't get symptoms until they are on verge of dying. This is pretty bad.

This topic can enlighten people on what are the disease that are still active besides Covid-19. This will help us understand the Covid-19 is not the only disease that we should take care of. But still the chances of getting that other diseases is still small compared to how fast this pandemic is growing. So we should not become anxious about that.

It is a people's choice if he or she will protect himself from that various diseases using those medical grade stuff when he go outside. But just like what I've said, it depends on your surroundings and how fast the rate of transmission is. Also remember to always wash your hands when you got home and always bring alcohol to disinfect your hands and things.

Introvert is often the term for it and seems the politist term. And yeah, I personally don't see much of a difference if I don't see others for weeks/months... I also came to enjoy video calling a bit more than in real life due to being able to mute arguments or discussions you don't care about.

Enough suicide prevention teams have highlighted the huge problem of people commuting suicide during the lockdowns and they're real. A lot of European and American culture is built on people socialising in pubs and restaurants, you can't wear a face mask and drink a pint of beer unless you're doing one wrong.

Actually covid also had a large affect on people who were 50/60 still in work and people that were sick already.

For people who don't die and have severe symptoms that might not require admission to hospital, an entomologist made available their insights into the virus and said they had it for 8 weeks and had to join an online support group to seek reassurance for their illness (things like the common cold and most other illnesses are good for not lasting more than 3 weeks in healthy people so I could see something lasting 6 weeks would be really worrying)...

Prevention is better than cure.

Being prepared is good to prevent being infected with other diseases that are existing for so many years. We are focusing on this Covid-19 pandemic because of the number of people around the world who are getting infected by this. But we should also think of those diseases that can be spread from P2P transmission like chicken pox, meningitis, tuberculosis, measles, and etc. In reality, there are also infectious diseases that are spreading in some areas before this pandemic exists.

In Democratic Republic of the Congo, there is an Ebola Virus that is still present and on going.

[TIDOVEE]

This pandemic has actually brought out some hygiene that is expected to be normal, but you know most times we learn to do the right things in a hard way. Just as you have said isn't is inappropriate to have a commercial bus filled to the extent of having people standing in road safety precautions. If we can always keep the lesson and heigene from this pandemic up, other sicknesses will be reduced. There are so many other illnesses that are more deadly than Corona virus, this just involve the whole world in a short range of time, that's why we took it serious.

[plvbob0070]

This whole COVID-19 pandemic makes people be more conscious about their environment and hygiene, which is good because they will start to take extra care of the things around them. Actually, the implemented protocols are not new because even without the virus, we still need to be hygienic. However, people usually forget those things, especially covering when they sneeze or cough. It's the proper way to do when you are in a public place but some people are not really paying attention to these simple manners. But due to the pandemic, I think it opened the eyes and minds of people about this simple gesture they often ignore.

But we still can't remove the fact that some people still don't want to follow these simple rules. There are people who don't want to wear masks when going out in public places because they have the freedom to do so. They still don't realize that it's the best and simplest way in preventing getting infected while there is still no vaccine available yet.

[jackg]

I really don't want to think a large number of people weren't washing their hands in the past but I imagine a lot still aren't... I had to turn to my emergency soap reserves because the stores ran out (probably a good thing).

It won't take the majority a long time to forget to wash their hands when they come home too for example but it is good practice if some. Remember it and I've been doing it since school (because school and bus handles always seemed disgusting) ...

Many has been taught this habit - hygiene - by at home by parents or caretakers or in school but the pandemic has taught many more at this time, but if hygiene is a good thing then it should continue even at the post covid-19 period, not every one will practices it then like some are not even practicing it now the pandemic is here. But when government with out force encourage/support or can even sponsor the upholding of the safety measures -pandemic and post pandemic era-

[dothebeats]

Being someone who came from a long work-from-home setup, the weeks and the months with little to no physical contact with other people can be daunting, and most people and governments are pushing for work-from-home setups for industries that need not physical attendance from workers--jobs that can easily be done with the comfort of a computer and internet. That's one way of combating the further spread of the disease, but one way or another, people are going to need to go out and talk to someone else. Governments should be strict on imposing health safety guidelines on public places to ensure that the cases would not spread. Human resources and the population in general is a vital part of the economy, and one without the other, the gears won't turn.

Wash your hands people. You just don't know whether someone you came in recent contact with has the virus, as most of the general population who tested positive for the virus are mainly asymptomatic, followed by those with mild symptoms. I used to laugh with people who wash their hands excessively and use alcohol on almost every occasion that they touch something, but as I get to learn more things being a microbiologist, and with the help of the current pandemic, I'm glad that people actually did that back in the day, and for sure are doing that now more than ever.

[so98nn]

Good to see you are spreading the valuable message here regarding prevention of covid19 infection.

However, the point which you made here about Human Resources is little throwback to what we need in reality. Earth as a whole already sustaining huge population, by far it's suffocating with the population that we have right now.

So let's not forget that we already have more than enough human resources.


What we need actually is . . .

Increased employment. What I mean is, we need to flourish the job opportunities in every sector. We have inequality in IT, mechanical, Pharma, healthcare, research, environment, government everywhere you go there is scarcity of jobs.

Either businesses shall grow with enough intake of human resources or there should be enough government jobs to control the unemployment scenario.

My only point is we have large number of human.

"Destruction & Creation is natural process of mother earth, you can not overcome it".

[Darker45]

If being civilized also means being more considerate of your and other people's health, then we're indeed more civilized now. For me, it is more specifically a realization of how actually weak or susceptible we are to various diseases as a species.

It is ironically funny how as a human race we are trying to conquer other planets, the stars, the universe, or even its entire existence and yet a tiny virus which we do not even know the origins of might actually wipe us out. This virus is threatening everything about us: our health, economy, lifestyle, culture, and even our entire existence.

Anyway, our economy is only as strong as our health or our social well-being. Even the most flourishing or robust economy could bow down to a virus coming from seemingly insignificant creatures of the dark.

Practice proper hygiene and we should know how to do that because it was taught in preschool or grade school. It is not that hard for us to remind ourselves to always wash our hands when we go outside. As long as possible, protect yourself from other diseases that can be spread through physical or non-physical contact transmissions. This topic reminds us that Covid-19 is not the only enemy that we need to fight or avoid, there are also some deadly ass diseases that can result to lost of lives. Being anxious is bad but being prepared is better, so don't forget to remind other people especially your family and friends about this topic.
