Government slowly open the economy, will it make the pandemic worst?

[jademaxsuy]

Yes, it could because the virus is still there and people that are vulnerable to this virus will be put more closer to danger. The virus may not affect the people that are healthier but we do not know if we are really healthy enough not to get affected by the virus. In these trying times we have to protect our love ones especially the kids or older people that somehow are consider as more vulnerable. Hopefully that people will going to be more careful by observing the minimum health standard.

It's bright that opening of economics has made and is making pandemic worse but there is no other choice. Please, don't argue with me that our health is more important than economics because your health directly depends on your economic, without good economics, it will fail too.
People have to follow standards very carefully and mustn't be careless when it comes to our and someone's health. To be fair, I think numbers are inflated and real death cases caused by covid isn't that high. At the same time, governments mustn't panic people as it will make the situation worse. Place effect has a huge impact on people and society, good placebo effect is important and at the same time when they panic people, some people are so afraid of it that request to be placed in a hospital when they see that they just choke or sneeze. Because of limited resources, it's making it hard to find places for those who really need treatment.

The question is that are we really going to improve the economy?

Or make covid19 transmission worst of their decision?

I know how hard it is for the government to decide which side they need to focus on.
If they will focus on the transmission or the virus and close the economy then the whole country will suffer since cash flow will be shut down.
If they will focus on the economy and let the virus transmit faster then more people will die.

In our country, the number of cases are still increasing by at least 4 digits per day but slowly the economy is opening because we don't have any choice. One more is that the recovery rate of the person getting infected by the virus is high so they will just risk it rather than closing the economy.

I cannot imagine the prostitute businesses to be re-open
It is a sure thing the most effective way to get infected lol.
Let the whole economy area to re-open so we can see a smooth genocide of the century, i always imagined about this
If the covid19 is so deadly , lets use it to reduce useless man on earth .
No seriously , both action by reopening activities and locking down has similar equal effects / threats.
So for me let it flow , life must go on.

[Sapphire915]

It will definitely make the situation worst. Covid-19 transmissions will be more rapid and we should only expect the highest number of cases arises as the Government loosen up the strict community quarantines and people anywhere didnt even care that the virus is still around us, and yet they keep on doing the usual things before this pandemic hits us. Im so scared to think of the possible things that might occur and we could not rely on completely to Government's assistance because of the limited resources. So, I guess, the best thing to do now is to pray more harder that we will be spared from this virus and will continue to survive until this pandemic last.

[Light onuoha]

  If the economy is opend slowly, I don't see any reason for the pandemic to get worst. But it the economy is opened abruptly, there will be a big problem, because I will result to a second phase of the pandemic and no one is praying for such to happen.

[Inkdatar]

Th government needs to reopen some business for the economy to run slowly. Just like in our country, as announced they need to think of other ways for the economy to survive otherwise, the economy will be worse. This pandemic that we're suffering will worsen if the people have no disciplined during these difficult times. You have to follow the protocol and guidelines though the fact the number of infected is increasing.

[bitbunnny]

I don't have the feeling that pandemic was under control except in the period of complete lockdown. But that is not the solution, economy is something that we can't live without, something that makes the ground for everyday living and earning.
People need to learn how to protect themselves and live with virus but economies need to carry on otherwise soon we'll see the collapse of our societies and I don't think that anyone wants that.

[Xembin]

With the measure of ground show the government don't want to experience covid-19 again. Many research has been carry out to know when and where it will be good for so that people will start doing their normal business.
The economy is still growing gradually to recover all so that it will not make things worst after lifting the lockdown. Many investors are still find it difficult to make a good profit.

[carter34]

This depends on how people will protect themselves during this pandemic. If they think they can just go back to what they've been used to before all of this happened. It will surely get worst if people won't adjust to the new normal. I'm sure they know how much expensive it is to be hospitalized.

The new normal is to adapt to the procedure slayed by the government which includes face mask wearing, social distancing and others to be safe and healthy. The survivals of covid-19 won't want to have such experience of being hospitalized.

[MCobian]

In my opinion, opening the economy slowly will indeed make the pandemic worse. Moreover, it is very difficult to get people to discipline
to adhere to health protocols. Even in my country government have to be given sanctions or fines so that people want to wear masks.
But the government does not have many options for restoring the economy, and I can understand why the government is taking this step.
Therefore, we are all obliged to comply with 3 health protocols, namely wearing masks, social distancing and washing hands.

[gabbie2010]

Second wave of the pandemic is being experienced in some countries due to government opening of their economies, I believed government has a lot to do in curtailing the virus else the consequences of another lockdown might triggers more job losses and worsen recession, to matter worst some people are disobeying covid-19 protocols some claiming that wearing of nose mask is against their fundamental human right.

[raidarksword]

This would be a good to our economy and getting it back slowly was a good decision because we cannot be forever hide in our houses and wait for government to feed us, we must also do our part as a citizen to help our government back on to its knees and help it survive. As long as we still follow strict safety protocol when we go out or go to our respective workplaces, we will be okay and survive this new normal of daily routines. Even if the virus already flattened it doesn't mean the threat is gone, we just have to be vigilant and apply sanitary procedure always.

[Dorodha]

The government is opening everything to improve the country's economy because the people are more affected. Whether the epidemic is bad or good will depend on itself. Even if the government opens everything, if everyone maintains social distance and protects themselves then the situation will improve a lot or the process will get worse. If the epidemic occurs a second time it will be much harder to defend oneself. This is why we must pray to God for protection.

The economy in every nation will die if they will not open it but there is a consequences on it and it is the high percentage where the virus can infect more a lot of people. A lot of people lose their job because of the pandemic and it is so sad that there are many people out there who are experiencing poverty wherein they are not earning money because of the current pandemic. Right now, the businesses in my community is starting to bounce back after the huge losses that they incur because of the current pandemic. Our government is doing their best to maintain and prevent the spread of the virus.

I think we individuals have important responsibility in our society, we should follow the health protocols given by the government especially today wherein many economies our now open. Our public transportation is now opening but still there are vehicles that are not yet allowed to operate due to the strict protocol to prevent the virus to spread. I think what my countries lack is the hospital even though the active cases in my country are continuing to decrease.

[Silberman]

Corporations have control of the media, the products the advertisements and many other stuff that could change the views of the public, they do not even have to actually do anything that supports a politician, they could just support what that politician supports and get out of it without any problems while still moving the country any direction they want, left or right.

This means if a politician does whatever companies wants him to do, that politician could get a fair help from the companies and that is why I honestly think they do not care about people as much as they care about the companies. This is literally the only reason why we are back on the streets again, there should be a lockdown no doubt yet at the same time government wants us to make profit for the corporate lords.

This is a good point after all we know for a fact that politicians tend to listen to the owners of corporations which for the most part are their friends or even supported their campaigns, however it is not as if people do not want to get out and be free again, people were very unhappy because of the lockdown we went through, not only they had to remain on their homes for most of the day but they lost their jobs and even the entertainment was scarce so I while the will of those business owners played a role I think the will of the people played a role as well despite the fact that the pandemic is still in place.

I agree with you. The economy of every country will die if lockdown continues. Corporates have already fired many of their employees in order to show profits in their balance sheets, small business can't afford to pay their employees without a regular income. Job class people and labourers are most affected by corona pandemic. Lockdown will worsen the people financial condition and this will increase crime, suicide and depression.
People have to understand and follow the safety measures in order to save their family and world economy. We all have to bear the risk of going out at work but can avoid unnecessary roaming. If once the world economy came to knees, it will be almost impossible to come back to track for the next 3-4 years.

[Fesatmas]

Yes, I think it will be responsible for making the situation worst than before. I am from an Asian country and our government is not taking enough restrictions for the pandemic rather than it should be needed to be more strict so that it can not spread rapidly.

After phase one, the government decided to open the economy, and the consequence of the result is getting dangerous. So it can be said the for this reason the situation will make the pandemic worst.

I think what the government is doing is a way to save the country's economy. if we are constantly trapped in a state where consciousness has to start with oneself. Regardless of the spread of Covid 19 or not, the wheels of the economy must work. there is always a change for the better. if we let it stay bad, it's because we ourselves don't want change.
Isn't it that apart from the government reopening the economy, legal protocols have been implemented and even new regulations need to be obeyed. Regarding dangerous or not, I think it returns to the belief of society in general.

[ReiMomo]

Let's stop the panic with this pandemic and look at how you survived today without having it even though you know to yourself that you have encountered a lot of risky people who might be carrying the virus already.

I guess the covid is just a made-up virus to slow down the global economy and to have what they needed to do. If you're going to observe, no one in your family has experienced the covid. And that's actually not an accident.

You sir are funny. While hundreds of thousands have already died and millions have been left lifeless or jobless becauseof the virus you here are one of those people who still believes the virus is made up. You have to thank the people you encounter for being considerate enough following social distancing protocols despite you being a prick about it. DYOR, and for God's sake, wear a mask. This pandemic is not made up, the virus destroyed almost every country's economy. Be considerate enough in helping your country rebuild itself by following rules.
