Our chance to reset

[danherbias07]

What country are you talking about? USA?

Me, my wife and my kids stayed at home as much as possible.
I see kids outside already playing and I know my children want to join them but it is not possible because we want their safety first.
It is only me who gets out of the house if necessary.
Taiwan and New Zealand sure dealt with it at its best.
But it won't work without the discipline of the people. While in USA, there is racism they are fighting with and protest are left in right.
I hope they can fix this as soon as possible before more of them is infected and so does their economy.

however, considering this situation or blessing in disguise would be a better option rather than considering it as a nightmare. this situation can be an opportunity to reaccess societies and nations.

The covid-9 situation cannot be considered a blessing in disguise. it can only be seen as a problem which we have to face together. The government that has implemented the new normal is not more concerned with the country's economy than the health and lives of its people but is thinking about the best solution for this problem. Lockdown is not the best step in solving this pandemic problem for developing countries. In developing countries the number of poor people is so high and a government that does not have the ability to bear all the needs of its people cannot implement this lockdown rule. Starving and death will further exacerbate problems in the country if the government does not solve them properly. New normal is one of the best alternatives in solving this problem. we still have a chance to return to our lives without covid-19. Obey government rules, maintain health protocols, and stay happy so we can survive in this pandemic.

Apart from all the current social, economic, and political problems, early character education must still be a concern in all countries because without moral and religious values, intelligence, position, and wealth will bring disaster and loss to other individuals.

No form of education can help mould a person's character in my opinion which is why I disagree with your idea regarding character education. Every individual is responsible for his/her character at the end of the day.

You cannot force someone to change their character. It is completely up to the individual and the reality is that most humans around the world choose a bad character for reasons such as luxury, fame etc. It's messed up, but it is the reality that we live in.

Maybe people would finally understand that earth doesn't care about your political alignment, your country, your religion, your personal belief, nothing matters to earth. As long as you are living on this planet you have to take good care of it and if you don't earth will treat you like a virus and will try to kill you. Look at humans as a virus to earth, what is earth doing? It is increasing in temperature, don't you get a high fever when you get a virus? Don't you have anticores that fight against you?

Well, world has virus for anticore, same logic applies, a bit less killer for earth, more killer for humans. Basically if we do not get our things in order and try to help the earth, earth will not try to help us, will make it very very difficult to stay alive here.

It is not a simple as you wish it to be. Preventing people from working can lead to poverty and starvation, and ultimately death.

This is exactly what I was thinking, for the most part things are never as simple as people think they are, it could be incredibly easy to say that everyone should stay home for months and that will be enough to stop the virus if everyone followed that guideline, however despite the appearances we do not have the resources to do that, who is going to produce the food, or the other hundreds of products and services that are necessary to maintain our living standards? And once you try to answer that is when you realize that you cannot send people home forever.

[Rosilito]

Blessing in disguise? Nah, it cannot be, and I couldn't portray it just like that. However, I admit, this global problem on the other hand revealed our shortcomings, flaws or whatsoever negativity we had for a very long time.

One more thing, people aren't going outside for no reason though, it is not that, their own life aren't that important to them. But going out for work, to buy some food, to do some transaction must've been too disconcerting to them as well. But they have to do it, if nothing else

And what good would come from that "reset"? I would rather say that we are adapting to new situation pretty well instead of it being a blessing. That's because we have to adapt and people are good at that. That's is why the human race with probably prevail almost anything. But this is very far from any blessing.

[Kakmakr]

It is not all doom and gloom... the pandemic also brought families together, where there was possibly feuds for years. People also realized that health is more important than wealth. The pandemic also highlighted the things that we took for granted.. like going to the movies and also enjoying Sport outdoors. 

Many companies also realized for the first time that remote working from home is a viable option and that people might even be more productive in a conducive environment. 

We have to take the good with the bad my friend.. 

[goinmerry]

OP just says that treat the situation, not as a nightmare as others think. We know there are already lots of deaths and the economy is falling but rather than to consider it as a hellish problem that we can't deal with, we must step up and treat the situation as a big challenge how to rise up. It's difficult but we have no other options at all but to move forward.

Not a literal blessing in disguise but with the pandemic happened, people realized how to fight against an invisible enemy, people realized how important it is to stay healthy and fit, people realized what investment is appropriate to invest with, people realized what businesses survived in the pandemic, people know the true color of some politicians, and lastly, people now become ready and prepared for the future waves of the pandemic in the future.

It is only me who gets out of the house if necessary.

It's opposite here, kids are freely playing outside and I can see their guardians just watching them in the just right in the door. Well I can understand what it feels like to be at home for months now, and I can say that kids can't help it anymore. But when I need something in my house, say cleaning materials or foods, I'm the one who goes outside to buy wearing a mask and long sleeves. Good for you, your kids are that understandable.

Taiwan and New Zealand sure dealt with it at its best.

Add Singapore, coz I'm really impressed how they handle the pandemic situation, though clearly no one was ready for this but their strong will to be a resilient country has been tested.

But it won't work without the discipline of the people. While in USA, there is racism they are fighting with and protest are left in right.

Discipline and cooperation is the very ideal cure to prevent being infected and to infect people.

This is an awry situation in my perspective, in one side the government should have to keep the economic back to normal because if the situation keep continue there will be something bad that will happen. In another side, they should have to guard their citizen in order to keep them health. Meanwhile, what should they do when cases increase and they still employ their people? works with the threat of a virus and does not work for reasons of fear of not wanting to be infected.

[maxreish]

It is always easier said than done but we can't definitely control people's way of action. Some are very much affected with this pandemic hence they are no choice but to go out and find some money to provide financial needs.

Governments is not always there to provide and that's the reality. Our economy is also affected and people are trying to survive with this new normal after lifting the lockdown.
And people are aware of bad effects so i think discipline is all we need to control the spread of this covid19.

[shoreno]

the government should have to keep the economic back to normal because if the situation keep continue there will be something bad that will happen.

it is on some .  economy are slowly returning while some arent yet because thier situation are still worst and government prefer to have a poor economy than to risk the health of its people because thats more painful  .  

Meanwhile, what should they do when cases increase and they still employ their people? works with the threat of a virus and does not work for reasons of fear of not wanting to be infected.

if cases are still growing , the best solution is to stop the employment or lessen the employees . other best option would be stoping the business or the work for quite some time  . working with a threat is what others are doing now because if they stay afraid , nothing will happen on thier lives   . no money will flow

It is not a simple as you wish it to be. Preventing people from working can lead to poverty and starvation, and ultimately death.

Indeed. Many people are struggling because of the implemented lockdown.

Some of us dont have enough money/savings to buy food. Its very easy to say that we need to abide and bear the situation to fight the virus but to those who dont have food to eat while at home this is not an easy thing.

Taiwan and New Zealand sure dealt with it at its best.

One reason that South East Asian countries dealt better with this, and were quicker to lockdown, is their recent pandemic experience with SARS and MERS.
The West always thought itself immune to these pandemics, they were things that happened in other countries.
I think once this one is eventually all cleared up, then every country around the world will be much more prepared and act much more swiftly the next time that there is a threat of a global pandemic.

[raidarksword]

Tourism industry has been one of the heavily affected due to this pandemic because countries are still banning local and international travels in and out as safety precautions of preventing more spread of the virus. Such lock-downs on cities is the only way to fight the pandemic and government is trying hard to contain infections at all cost for us to return in our normal state of living as soon as possible. Law abiding citizens will always understand this procedures because it's for everyone's safety.

[Reatim]

Corona virus knows no boundaries and damaged every religion, class, clan and society. But, this is high time for all of us to work together on things that didn't worked as properly as it should be. We should revive our economy and make our educational and health sector best because they are pillar of any developed nations.

This is now going to be different because the Vaccine is already on the move to make more positive result and when this being confirmed?.then world will
turn around again to make our lives on track.
we have been in the dark half of our year now and still counting but this September comes the Sun to lighten us all.

And what good would come from that "reset"? I would rather say that we are adapting to new situation pretty well instead of it being a blessing. That's because we have to adapt and people are good at that. That's is why the human race with probably prevail almost anything. But this is very far from any blessing.

Blessings maybe indeed because we finally has the Cure(though still need to be tested and proven and in many countries they are flattening the Curve so meaning?
at any chance this month or the next will be different and living will be good again and better.
Normal will be on our lives and Jobs will start opening again.Soon

It is not a simple as you wish it to be. Preventing people from working can lead to poverty and starvation, and ultimately death.

Plus, economies will really crash due to unemployment and closed businesses.

Financial or economic reset are really approaching but that doesn't mean that it is an advantage for all of us. This pandemic really brought a lot of damage and inconvenience to humanity. Even the animals are affected due to starvation and bankruptcy of those zoos. All the sectors are affected, mainly, economics due to increasing of jobless people.

[Assface16678]

Coronavirus is one of the unexpected things we could experience right now also this is the worst year that I experience. Yes, there is a history of virus-like this but the problem it's on history this is a new story right now.

Many countries fall down ecnonomy.
Many people lose their job
Many families are hard to live because of short supply.
Many company are not operating.
Many people died.
Many people are still not cured.

By the time goes by some of the people getting infected are now recovering which is a good sign and hope to make another reset on their live.

Some parts of the world are already healing and start their business up and building it again even there is a tragedy happens still they are keeping optimistic.

Even there are a lot of possible vaccines there is no assurance this the main cure.

[Shasha80]

Maybe it is true that the COVID-19 pandemic has a chance to reset, some people argue that with the COVID-19 air quality is getting better.
A devastated economy, forced to start all over again. Many people began to pay attention to health, such as cleanliness and healthy foods
that must be eaten. The way of life for humans is getting healthier, these are some of the positive effects that have occurred due to COVID-19.
But for me still COVID-19 is the worst thing that has happened in my life. Many people die every day, activities outside the home are limited,
it is difficult to earn money and life feels unsettled for fear of being infected by the corona virus.
