Second lockdown due to covid19 is painful

[nemey]

With the news that there will be a second lockdown in the Covid19 outbreak, it has made many people nervous. And I also really felt the impact firsthand as an entrepreneur. Because the business I am doing now has a big loss. And I even rely solely on bounties and assets in crypto right now.

The second lockdown is painful, but the governments didn't had any other choice. Many of the European countries are reporting record number of new cases, and the new strain (which is more contagious) has everyone on their toes. Hopefully, this will be the last lockdown, as the vaccination program has started. By end end of 2021, we won't be needing any lockdown or social distancing, if the vaccination is effective.

Hopefully, the vaccine that will be distributed soon will be the final cure of all these viruses so we can live back to normal. It's sad to say but i guess lockdown of the countries who have positive cases should be strictly done so that the spread of this new strain of virus will now be stop. And of course cooperation of all citizens can be of great help to stop the virus from infecting people.

The health experts doesn't know if the vaccine will work with the new variant spreading in some countries right now so maybe the one we should pray right now is hopefully the authorities will successful stop the spread of mutated covid-19 since if another outbreak will come provably it will take another year to develop another working vaccine to fight it.

And if another series of lockdown will happen for sure the 3rd world countries will get affected to much on it since for sure there economy are still crippled and we don't know if there's governments support will be given if that will happen again.

In my country people coming from Britain is tested for covid-19. As a result 17 persons were tested positive for covid-19 and one person has got the new form of covid-19. The government is taking necessary steps to stop the movement of people and guidelines for safety. I don't think the country will go for a second lockdown.

It's very obvious that not all countries at these point will experience second corona virus but due to what is involve in government every country with bad eggs of leaders will use such avenue to bring economy of her country down by embezzling their funds, when looking at the ratio of affected covid19 patients of different countries is not like the way it's in 2019 when corona virus started, even in 2020 so while would government lockdown again to suffer people, my major concerns is for those living in rural area that have no furtherance.

While corruption is wide spread, effecting policies to bring the economy down doesn't really favour the government as they would be losing revenue, while they'll also need to provide relief for the masses.
In some countries the virus is worse now than it was earlier in the year.

Corruption is definitely one of the worst things about this situation. We are dying, people are literally dying right now and governments are basically trying to hide the real numbers in many nations and try to get as much money from this excess economy as they can.

The economy is doing a lot worse than usual, 2020 has been very difficult for us but for governments as well, there were tons of taxes lost for them, which means they couldn't make the same amount of money personally as well from all the corruption, so they have increased their corruption to make as much as they used to make, and considering we are out of money, they had to take out the last dimes we had. This corona virus showed the world the worst part of humanity, if it works for the best of you, if you could even just change your 1 million dollar car for 2 million dollar car, many people let thousands die for it. It is a shame we live in this type of world.

My surprise and concern is why the need for second shutdown when they say the vaccine is out and functioning? If the vaccine is active then it should be used on the affected people and not to shutdown again because it will further impoverish the countries and people more.

Shutting down will imply that vaccine is not out yet. More effort need to be made to ensure the vaccine is taking care of the covid-19 pandemic.

I wouldn't count too much on the Covid-19 vaccine.  The vaccine has helped eradicate many diseases, such as smallpox, but not all diseases can be eradicated with a vaccine.  If we talk about viral and respiratory diseases, then, as a rule, people coped with epidemics of these diseases without vaccines.  Every fall and spring, people get sick with colds and flu.  This is considered normal, although some people in poor health die from these diseases.  The vaccine can cause the virus to mutate, this is the main danger.  

Moreover, many vaccines have been created, and some people categorically refuse to be vaccinated.  

The virus mutates more strongly during vaccination (the virus is also alive and its goal is to survive).  In general, mankind does not know much about viruses.

A second lockdown might still happen since there's a threat of a new strain of the virus that is more contagious. Although we heard the news that there are already vaccines available, we still need to be careful since the distribution of the vaccine is not as fast as how the virus spreads. To avoid another lockdown, people should keep following the strict protocol and refrain from going too much outside for unnecessary occasions, it's the best we can do.

From the point of view of the spread of the virus, vaccination (with an effective vaccine) will give quite a quick, tangible and positive result. Even with the high virulence of Covid19, the 90-95% effectiveness of the vaccine will reduce the area of ​​possible infection to almost a few percent of the population. This will make it possible to "break" the chain of the spread of the virus and significantly reduce the burden on medical facilities and the medical system as a whole. And if vaccination is delivered as a systemic process, then in 2021 we will be able to say goodbye to Covid19 and its variations, and begin to rebuild the economy after the pandemic.
The only question that remains is whether there will be subjects who will not accept such a course of history ... Will there not be countries / governments that just need a global collapse and a global global crisis ...

PS Himself was ill with Covid19 at the beginning of this December - I highly recommend taking care of yourself and not taking risks, the disease is extremely unpleasant both by the process of the disease and the consequences. Consequences as for me the biggest problem

I saw about the new virus and a lot of news that has published it, this is a new threat to all of us that maybe this is more virulent than before, the vaccines that are already available I do not guarantee their health will be more immune if they do not maintain the protocol that is applied because it is the main key to maintaining health.
The second lockdown has been implemented, I see the local government has implemented it even an appeal not to celebrate new tofu and holidays for now for the sake of other interests so as not to spread to others.

This is phase wave 2 of this pandemic happening, and what's worse is that the virus has mutated and is getting worse. Maybe we are used to this condition sometimes, but of course, we always hope that this pandemic will end quickly, right? However, the reality is that this pandemic is getting higher, even worse in some countries.

And indeed, this New Year and various other major events in my country should not be held by gathering a crowd, this is to reduce the number of the increasing spread of the virus. But the bad thing is, not all people understand this. Many of them remain on vacation regardless of health protocol. This is sad. When we are desperately trying to get up for the sake of health and also the economy, it happens that they easily violate health protocols just for a vacation.

Yes, it's the worst among the bad ones.  What is the proper punishment for those who steal in the midst of a natural disaster?  is he still worthy to live?  At a time when all countries are coping with the pandemic in a decisive way, one of the main ministers who administered aid funds for the public during the pandemic is corrupting covid-19 funds in my country.  Since that is the behavior of the representatives of the people today.  The hardest gets harder, the hungry die of hunger.  And officials remain rich because of their positions.

Health experts are not sure about the vaccine being "as efficient" on the new string of it. They are sure about it being helpful for sure, hell eating orange is helpful against corona, I am not even joking about it because eating orange will give you C vitamin which is good to increase your metabolism which is important to fight against Covid. Obviously you can't just be fine by eating orange and doing nothing else, that would be silly, which means it is not as helpful as a vaccine, but it is a tiny bit better than not eating it.

So, what we are not sure about (and health experts plus the whole world thinks the same) the vaccine we have for covid 19 will be also very good for the new string of covid as well, the only thing we are not entirely sure about is how much it will be helpful, for covid 19 they see 90%+ success rate, but with the new one that could drop as much as 50% who knows?

The second lockdown has been a major setback for ordinary people, especially businesses, entrepreneurs, and low-income workers, as the Corona epidemic has hit the world for a long time and has taken a heavy toll on the economy. Governments in many countries have already imposed special measures to prevent the Corona Epidemic Second push in their countries and in some cases have announced lockdowns to prevent it before the situation escalates. Although these decisions are in the public interest, the inability to provide adequate incentives and financial assistance has led to a massive economic crisis among the people, which is causing suffering to the common man.

I just hope leaders of every country would learn the lesson from 2020 because having a lockdown is quite annoying and stressful. I don't even know if there's an end of this pandemic because viruses keep on mutating which means scientist and experts will have to start again, although they won't be starting from nothing because they have samples already but the development of a new vaccine would take a while again.

Currently we are facing some serious challenges just because of this Covid-19 and media is also doing very poor in this all because most of time they are spreading this all without any serious case for world leaders and scientists its already big threat if they feel because this is killing many countries those are already in troubles specially middle class and lower class peoples are facing big problems they have no alternative and authorities in many countries fail to reach them which can cause more issues in near future.

On this thing where it do sucks on when you do have already the cure or vaccine of that 2019 nCov and now we do already have that nCov 2.0 or 2020 which is really much worst than on that primary one.
It is gradually spreading out now and this will be an inevitable thing that there might be some an another lockdown on some countries or closing their boarders in earlier time yet they had already learned
their past mistakes on not taking seriously when that ncov 2019 do happen. As if there would be some other options aside on not making a lockdown? To prevent the spread then it might be
a hard decision to be made by the government but there wont be no other choice.

Covid19 is really disturbing worldwide, the information passing across because of covid19 second lockdown is very strong, the previous lockdown really affects people especially trader's, entrepreneurs and many people lost their life's and siblings, so since the vaccine for treatment of the virus is out I think government don't have to lockdown countries again for the sake of less privileges in society, life is very difficult for people in rural areas and our leaders are not care to look towards the development or needs of poor's, I think government of some certain countries should remember that all hands are not equal, by following cases of covid19 with precautions instead of shutting down everywhere or making the prevent measures of corona virus to be necessary to people living in such domain, I think it should be more preferable than closing source of less privileges daily breads.

It's very obvious that not all countries at these point will experience second corona virus but due to what is involve in government every country with bad eggs of leaders will use such avenue to bring economy of her country down by embezzling their funds, when looking at the ratio of affected covid19 patients of different countries is not like the way it's in 2019 when corona virus started, even in 2020 so while would government lockdown again to suffer people, my major concerns is for those living in rural area that have no furtherance. Happy New Year In advance, Keep Safe

We maybe told that we already found the vaccine for corona but in reality we are still not 100%, even if we found the perfect vaccine still it takes too long time to produce them for the everyone in your country and also the second lockdown is happening due to the mutated version of covid 19 so this is not the exact virus we had in the past so actual vaccine we found earlier is not going to work with the new one.

[hulla]

Whatever we say is of no use to the governments because they used to their abuse of power and they will always do what suits them so I don't think anyone needs to remind the governments about how things are difficult for the poor during the first total lockdown but it sad we only have the government, not a true leader and I wonder how things will be for the masses if their no existence of Bitcoin.

A second lockdown might still happen since there's a threat of a new strain of the virus that is more contagious. Although we heard the news that there are already vaccines available, we still need to be careful since the distribution of the vaccine is not as fast as how the virus spreads. To avoid another lockdown, people should keep following the strict protocol and refrain from going too much outside for unnecessary occasions, it's the best we can do.

I also heard in the news about a new strain virus which was detected in the UK and was said to be found on travelers from South Africa but I still don't see any reason for the lockdown which the government should know by now that it actually doesn't solve the virus issue but worsen the country economy and what I think should be their focus now is how to fast provide the vaccine and quarantine every arrival into the country.

Many Countries have been making announcements concerning the measures to put in place as to be saved. In my Country, as of this minute, there is no total lockdown yet but during the first phase of this lockdown sincerely some government supply basic needs for the people so I think this time around it will be better.

[goldade]

Although you're right about government of some countries especially in Africa using the second lockdown as an opportunity to embezzled funds meant for the people, I believe it is still necessary to curb the spread of the virus and reduce significantly the number of casualties.
Imagine if the number of cases and casualties we'll have now if we didn't have the first lockdown. All those who go to stadiums to watch a game would get infected, people in the market area would get infected, everybody in churches and mosques would also get infected.
As much the lockdown affects businesses and individuals, I believe it's a necessary measure to fight the virus.

It's very clear that countries differs, a country that have their citizens at heart will ensure they have provide all the necessary needs that will enable their people or her people to earn a better living, many leaders are conscious of enrichment of their families and their relatives, so is not rail to have a good government that will care if citizens have taken three square meal a day, so locking down can't solve our problem.

Until the collective immunity of the population is developed, governments will still be forced to impose isolation to one degree or another, and this fact must be accepted. And normal collective immunity without off-scale mortality can be developed only through mass vaccination of the population, whatever conspiracy theories certain people try to use, but the potential side effects of the vaccine do not go to any comparison with the consequences of the pandemic.
