COVID advanced the world into the future

[gagika]

Covid 19 have a great impact on human live. And when I say lives its physical,mental,spiritual and technological advancement. Physical in a way that people might loss their life just getting socialize, wearing  a mask under the heat is a definetely a thing now. Mental, means that people get depressed and anxious by the lockdown, it is indeed frustating that you can only see four walls of your house day and night, no one to talk to. Spiritual, at some point you will lose hope, asking yourself what your purpose in life is. Technological advancement, who would have thought that some work might not need an office now to provide for their worker. With this event we got the chance to have a peek of our future technology,not only in work but also in education.  Humans are not made for this pandemic but we are great in adaptation.

I hope that what remains from Covid educated us and let's us improve our systems and decision making processes. As so often in the past there is a crisis but the situation returns to the status quo nevertheless even though we wish we would improve our world. We will all find out in not that many years from now.

No matter how well people try to twist it, I am still not happy about this Coronavirus. This covid have ruined a lot of things, especially the place I live, things have changed a lot. This virus brought economies down and led to hunger in a lot of societies these days. And when there is too much hunger people will start living reckless lives to survive, there will be a high rate of crime which is very bad.

So, tell me why exactly I should be happy about coronavirus? Of course it did bring a digital revolution, but what's the need for a digital revolution? We don't even need that, I will choose peace of mind over that.

These are two different mindsets and two different situation. The other one is looking to the brighter side amidst the pandemic, while the other is looking to end the darkness this pandemic has brought to us.
Though both of you aren't wrong with your opinions, because we are all suffering financially, emotionally, and physically with this Covid. But we have to understand that we need to revolutionise and be creative to keep foods on our table to avoid ourselves starved to death while 80% of businesses has been halted. So, here is just a piece of the bright side during the pandemic. Nobody is happy about the pandemic, and I think the OP is just expressing some positive events in our lives living under the series of lockdowns and job loss.
We all want this to end.

Whenever there is disaster there will also be opportunities.

It is the two sides of the same coin. While fortunes were destroyed for people who panic sold their stocks/cryptocurrencies at the depths of the bear market, it was made for tech entrepreneurs and those who bought up shares in quality tech companies at bargain prices.

It has really allowed us a glimpse into a WFH, complete digital ecosystem alongside with cryptocurrencies as the dominant global reserve asset. And I believe that this vision will be realised very soon.

Every problem that occurs, does not always have a negative result. COVID-19 has indeed harmed many people, especially people who panicked
to sell their assets. But on the other hand, COVID-19 opens up opportunities for humans to quickly switch to life relying on technology, It has been
proven that since the pandemic the number of internet users has continued to increase. What's interesting is that when this pandemic occurred,
almost all assets crashed, but cryptocurrencies are different, crypto is growing in market. Even in 2021, the achievement of several crypto coins
managed to reach the highest price. This also gives awareness to many people, that investing in crypto is very profitable in a pandemic situation like now.

I honestly doubt that, human has the history of repeating the same mistake, efficiency that increases in many companies right as of now is due to no toleration for any mistake or inefficiency.
If there's toleration to that, the company will surely become inefficient. 3 years maybe we still retain the lesson learnt from pandemic, but in 5 years I doubt that.
Maybe we already forgot that not even a decade ago there's pandemic and going to do the same mistake again.

With COVID-19, there are definitely positives and negatives.
so instead of taking the negative side it's better to take the positive side,
I agree with you that the existence of covid 19 makes humans rely on technology and that is certainly good

very true because every incident there is always a lesson to be learned. because everything that has happened let it happen. most importantly we must be able to change the mindset and continue to adapt to technology as much as possible. The lesson for me is that I can stay longer in the forum and discuss, share knowledge, experiences and thoughts that will become the pioneers of the birth of an increasingly advanced digital era.

Yeah, it didn’t just advance us well into the future, it also advanced us well into problems, like seriously. A lot of people are always complaining about how things have gotten in a lot of areas. Okay I am not going to talk about the fact that lots of good people lost their jobs, but that one is not a big problem because I believe everyone is going to look for another way and also there are now so many remote jobs online, though it’s going to be really difficult to find a new job.

All that aside, the next problem now is the rate at which crime has gone up, it’s just like the cage was opened and they let out the dogs. The government everywhere should be doing what they can to put things under control.

A total of nearly 4 million people are dead because of covid, which is why it is harder to take the positive with the negative, I understand that some people are looking at what we have achieved since it happened, plus the earth is cooling down or maybe not from what I can see on the data but at least less driving is better for the world which did happened so I guess we didn't go as bad as it can get, it is still worse but not as worse as it could be, so yeah there are some positives that's true.

However in a situation where there will be total of over 4 million by the end dead because of a pandemic, it is very hard to see any positives in there, I know that people try to find silver lining in situations like this because looking at something that is fully bad ends up being psychologically horrible hence why the need to find something good, but I still think we can see why it is bad for some of us.

I think every calamity brings with itself a big bundle of opportunities, be it the 2008 crash or be it COVID, people with brains always get a way of promoting their businesses. But we cannot really say it advanced the world into the future. All it did was escalated our digital adoption by 4-5 years which is both good as well as bad. Good in terms of flexibility that we now have but bad in terms of the human interaction that we will soon feel is missing from our lives. Digital meetings are good but nothing can match brainstorming when everyone is physically present in the room. I think it's far more effective. Also if there wouldn't have been any covid there would have been advancements in some other fields. So it didn't advance us in the future, just made us more tech-savvy, which is both a bane and a boon.

People have lost their dear ones. By the time the mind will never think of the positive things happening out of covid-19. We make discussion relative to the positive and negative effects of covid-19. Things have advanced into the future, but no one is able to find a solution for the covid-19. No vaccine is cent percent effective, which means no vaccine production have assured that after vaccination you won't get affected with covid-19.

Why do we focus on something negative, it's better to maximize the positive side that arises due to the COVID-19 pandemic. By using a lot of
technology to make human life much better and more effective, we can buy anything we want online. We don't need to spend time out of
the house buying the things we want, we can also make money through the internet. Which in a situation like now many offices and factories
go bankrupt and lay off their employees, but technology opens up opportunities for people who need jobs. And there are many more positive
sides of technology, so in this pandemic situation we don't give up on the situation, but always look for opportunities that must be done.

I wonder what miracle cure you are still waiting for that will turn over all the foundations of medicine and science? No two-component vaccine guarantees you a result if you do not get vaccinated with two components and you may well become infected in this time interval. You need to live and operate in an objective reality, when even if you are vaccinated with coronavirus, the health consequences should not be as terrible as those who are not vaccinated. Historically, mass vaccination and population coverage have been much more effective in vaccination issues than single percentages of vaccine effectiveness.

Vaccines are not guarantees that they won't be covid-19 positive but atleast  they will only experience mild symptoms unlike those who have not been vaccinated yet.

Covid-19 may bring negativity in general but it also has positive effects when you come to analyze it. People are now much inclined to new technologies like internet so they can do much things online. And most particularly, bitcoin has experienced its new ATH just when we thought that this pandemic will also bring it down. And with the adoption from big institutions, bitcoin has even gained more support from different countries than it had before.

On the same page. Alih-alih bersedih dan menyalahkan keadaan yang membuat semua hal berubah dan menjadi sulit, kita harus tetap optimis dan berpikir positif. Banyak perubahan yang terjadi, salah satunya adalah membuat kita lebih sadar betapa pentingnya menjaga kebersihan agar tidak mudah tertular penyakit. Dan juga menjadi lebih peduli pada kesehatan dan ketahanan tubuh dengan rajin berolahraga dan mengkonsumsi makanan bergizi seimbang.
dari sisi teknologi, kita juga "dipaksa" berevolusi untuk belajar bagaimana caranya memanfaatkan teknologi dan perkembangan zaman untuk mendapatkan pekerjaan yang baik, menggunakan teknologi pembayaran digital, dll.

Newly existing vaccines wont really give out any guarantees which it isnt surprising since its still new and been hurriedly been created because the situation comes even more worst as the day pass by but its better rather than have nothing at all.People should mind off about efficacy would surely be no giving 100% of assurance that you wont get infected as of per reports that there are individuals who do get 2nd dose but still had able to get the virus just because they become confident that they wont get infected which is really a very wrong mindset.

In addition to having a deadly impact on human life, Covid-19 has the potential to change civilization, both negatively and positively at the same time. Negatively, Covid-19 forces humanity to stretch out social relations and interactions. Humanity was forced to avoid crowds. Activities of worship, work and study from home. Covid-19 also disrupts the supply-chain, hampers production and thus slows economic growth, not only in China, the United States (US), India or Indonesia, but also the world as a whole. In addition, Covid-19 has disrupted various religious, educational and government services. In a number of cases, disrupted public services have disappointed the public, leading to protests and chaos.

From a sociological perspective, such a thing can threaten civilization if the government loses control over citizens who commit violence. Quoting Tainter (1988:4), John Danafer (2019), a civilization can be said to collapse if it experiences rapid and substantial economic, socio-cultural and political setbacks/losses from its previous stable/established condition.

The pandemic changed the living and working habits of people around the world. The application of technology such as online shopping, cashless payment or online meetings via zoom and working from home is to adapt because of the ongoing epidemic. That could end soon as the vaccine becomes available worldwide.

5. People have time to focus of themselves and change their lives.

This is the best one! I mean people were working as robots all day and night just to earn money but now because of tough times everyone has a moment to realize what they are doing and what they want to do. Life has certainly slowed down.

Personally I was expecting second wave might be helping more people to get into bitcoin ecosystem as some people may find bitcoin and its features/characteristics more interesting and fruitful for their leisure times. But, even many countries are still having restricted lockdown, we are not seeing any big impact on bitcoin market levels due to covid's second wave and its lockdown situations.
