COVID-19

 

COVID-19: a pandemic we all know by now. The deadly and contagious disease still mutating and growing in every way possible and there is no end in sight. People from around the world were interviewed and out of the people we interviewed 17.3% of the people have gotten this fatal disease. 


U.A.E has handled the situation well so far, with the number of deaths to the minimum and the amounts of recoveries skyrocketing, and this is all thanks to HH. Khalifa bin Zayed Al Nahyan. His guidance in this situation has helped the community to be brighter and more understanding of this horrifying virus. 


Earlier last year most of the world including the UAE went into complete lockdown after the world crisis hit. At the time we all thought that 300-400 cases were a lot and that, what was happening then was extremely bad.


The Khaleej times report has stated that:     

“The health insurance premiums in the UAE have gone up since the outbreak of the Covid-19 pandemic last year, as residents become more cautious about their health. The industry executives forecast that premiums are expected to go up further this year as well as over the next couple of years.”


Covid-19 infections and deaths are mounting with alarming speed in India with no end in sight to the crisis and a top expert warning that the coming weeks in the country of nearly 1.4 billion people will be "horrible."

India's official count of coronavirus cases surpassed 20 million on Tuesday, nearly doubling in the past three months, while deaths officially have passed 220,000.


In the past 24 hours, India added 357,229 cases, taking the total to 20.3 million, according to the health ministry. Deaths rose 3,449 to 222,408. Many experts suspect the true number is much higher. After this terrible incident, the UAE has suspended all flights from India.


“Where do we go from here? 

Our grief is not an island, but it is a stark reality that this virus also emphasizes loneliness. You are left alone with your thoughts and fear. The dead are left alone at the crematorium. The survivors left without closure.”


In 2020, we still had hope because the vaccine was the light at the end of the dark tunnel and that 2021will be a better year. But 5 months in the situation in India has our hopes lower than ever, with the cases going overboard and reaching 20 million cases.


Multiple states in India will go into "complete lockdown" in the coming days as the second wave of infections continues to paralyze the world's second-most populous country. Countries in South Asia are taking precautions as Covid-19 cases rise around the region. In the US, Pfizer said it expects to submit for FDA emergency use authorization for its Covid-19 vaccine for children ages 2 to 11 in September. A top WHO official says the world has a shot at controlling Covid-19 -- if it comes together.


There are many things that today’s society still needs to learn about COVID, such as general knowledge. For example, one of the general information questions that we asked the surveyed people was if covid 19 was caused by a virus, indeed it is, but even though the majority of the people said that it was, 11.3% of the people said no, and maybe. We still need to educate the people around us about the crisis that Is happening in today’s world.


Immunity


The immune systems are designed to fight off sicknesses and viruses. But unfortunately, the immune system can get affected by many things. This prevents our bodies from effectively fighting sickness.

Your physical fitness levels alone don’t define your immunity, though it does play a major role in building it up.


Food:

This is a list of the superfoods to boost your immune system to fight the deadly virus:

· Garlic 

· Ginger

· Turmeric

· Almonds

· Citrus Fruits

· Green Tea


Exercise:

Exercise is known to have a profound impact on the normal functioning of the immune system. Any kind of exercise mobilizes billions of immune cells, that are capable of killing virus-infected cells.

Indoor exercises:

· Yoga

· Stretching

· Climbing Stairs

· Skipping

Outdoor exercises:

· Walking

· Jogging

· Cycling


Sleeping well:

Our body has an amazing capacity to heal itself. It’s just that we don’t give it enough time to do so. Quality sleep can do wonders for our overall health and boost our immunity. It is when we sleep that our body goes in a repair mode and healing of the major organs takes place. A sound sleep not only helps you wake up fresh and energized but also helps you deal with day–to–day issues in a much better way. It calms your mind and reduces stress. Most importantly it helps rebuild your immunity.

· Avoid watching TV 30 min before sleep.

· Cultivate the habit of reading a book before sleep.

· Take a hot water bath before going to sleep.

· Put on any soft and soothing music.

· Do not carry your daily stresses and tensions to bed.

· Keep away from all electronic gadgets.

· Try to meditate for a few minutes before sleeping.


Good habits:

Here are some healthy daily habits that can help you boost immunity and fight COVID...

· Wash hands with soap often during the day.

· Drink warm water as much as possible.

· Maintain good hygiene.

· Have your meals on time.

· Have a balanced diet.

· Meditate regularly.


Emotions:

FEAR acts as the trigger for the negative spiral of emotions that pulls you down. Fear leads to stress, anxiety, victimhood, anger, regret, guilt, and pressing the panic button… which leads to more fear.

This process harms physical well-being and ultimately results in the weakening of the immune system.

Tips to handle emotions:

· Be in the Present Moment, as fear is mostly about future events.

· Be Thankful for all you have in the Present moment and think that you are the Blessed one.

· Let go of all your past grudges, anger, regrets, and guilt. Be kind and forgiving. This will help you focus on the Present than on the Past.

· Do whatever you love doing with complete attention on that job.

· Listen to some enchanting music or even better hum yourself songs you love singing.

· Shift your focus from the Future to the Present, with the understanding that the future is only in our imagination. What you think may not happen at all.

· Have faith in the larger plan that we all a part of.

· Bring your attention to your breath every few minutes. Focus on your breath will also calm your mind.


Statistics

Out of the people I had surveyed, only 98.1% of people wear their masks when outside. And judging by the situation currently, that isn’t a good thing. Wearing your mask is an important factor in today’s world. The mask gives us protection from the virus, as it transmits through infected people. 


Wearing gloves is not at all necessary, but some people do wear them, even though the majority of the people do not wear gloves when they go outside, some however do. 11.3% of the people always wear gloves when they go out. Even if you don’t wear gloves that are still fine.


On the survey, we had included “What other precautions do you take when you go outside”. We got some funny comments like, ‘SANITIZER DUH oh and don’t touch things.’. Most of the comments were saying putting sanitizer, and always maintain social distancing and many more things to do with COVID-19.


Precautions

How To keep yourself safe from COVID-19:

Maintain at least a 1-meter distance between yourself and others to reduce your risk of infection when they cough, sneeze or speak. Maintain an even greater distance between yourself and others when indoors. The further away, the better.

Make wearing a mask a normal part of being around other people. The appropriate use, storage, and cleaning or disposal are essential to make masks as effective as possible.

Here are the basics of how to wear a mask:

· Clean your hands before you put your mask on, as well as before and after you take it off, and after you touch it at any time.

· Make sure it covers both your nose, mouth, and chin.

· When you take off a mask, store it in a clean plastic bag, and every day either wash it if it’s a fabric mask or dispose of a medical mask in a trash bin.

· Don’t use masks with valves.

  • For specifics on what type of mask to wear and when read our Q&A and watch our videos.      There is also a Q&A focused on masks and children.
  • Find out more about the science of how COVID-19 infects people and our bodies react by watching or reading this interview.
  • For specific advice for decision-makers, see WHO’s technical guidance.

Don’t forget the basics of good hygiene:

  • Regularly and thoroughly clean your hands with an alcohol-based hand rub or wash them with soap and water. This eliminates germs including viruses that may be on your hands.
  • Avoid touching your eyes, nose, and mouth. Hands touch many surfaces and can pick up viruses. Once contaminated, hands can transfer the virus to your eyes, nose, or mouth.      From there, the virus can enter your body and infect you.
  • Cover your mouth and nose with your bent elbow or tissue when you cough or sneeze. Then dispose of the used tissue immediately into a closed bin and wash your hands. By following good ‘respiratory hygiene’, you protect the people around you from viruses, which cause colds, flu, and COVID-19.
  • Clean and disinfect surfaces frequently especially those which are regularly touched, such as door handles, faucets, and phone screens.

What to do if you feel unwell:

  • Know the full range of symptoms of COVID-19. The most common symptoms of COVID-19 are fever, dry cough, and tiredness. Other symptoms that are less common and may affect some patients include loss of taste or smell, aches, and pains, headache,      sore throat, nasal congestion, red eyes, diarrhea, or a skin rash.
  • Stay home and self-isolate even if you have minor symptoms such as cough, headache, mild fever until you recover. Call your health care provider or hotline for advice. Have someone bring you supplies. If you need to leave your house or have someone near you, wear a      medical mask to avoid infecting others.
  • If you have a fever, cough, and difficulty breathing, seek medical attention immediately. Call by telephone first, if you can, and follow the directions of your local health authority.
  • Keep up to date on the latest information from trusted sources, such as WHO or your local and national health authorities. Local and national authorities and public health units are best placed to advise on what people in your area should be doing to protect themselves.


Covid-19 comes with so many costs even with losing the people that we loved and cherished the most. The world can be a very cruel place, and sometimes not even we can handle it. We always have tips and tricks to help us with the amazing community that we live in. This amazing community has gone through a lot and can help you with things that you might really need.
