Corona Virus: The 2020 Threat

-

     The year 2020 has not been kind to us, human beings from the very beginning. We saw and heard of many natural disasters, diseases and deaths this year. However the pandemic caused by the Corona virus tops the list of all the disasters as it had caused the highest number of deaths and illness all over the world. The disease caused by this virus is called COVID-19. These two words “Corona” and “COVID” has become most spoken and most heard word in every household.

The number of infected patients are rising daily and death tolls have been increasing. The entire world is suffering from it. On one hand the virus is spreading widely all over the world. Even after a long lockdown, the condition wasn’t stable due to which restrictions have been imposed all over the country. The number of patients are increasing daily. While on the other hand, the global economy is lowering. Thousands of people have lost their jobs. Many people are facing economic crisis. The schools, colleges and universities have been shut down. The daily wage workers are in miserable conditions due to lack of income sources. The large companies and shops have been condemned to bear millions of loses. The people have become restless due to economic crisis.

This microscopic virus has somehow managed to change the trajectories of our lives. No one has been able to live their lives like before. There is always a threat of life around us. No one feels safe, even inside the house. Sanitizers and Masks have become two news needs of our lives along with food, place to live and clothes. There is also no denial to the fact that even in this situation, the doctors and nurses have been risking their lives just to treat their patients. They have been working really hard for past 8-9 months just to save other’s lives.

So in this way, the corona virus has become a threat to our lives as well as all the important aspects of our lives.

The Unwanted Parcel

     It was a snowy Saturday morning in the chilly cold month of December somewhere in Dehradun, which was about 241.4 km from Delhi, capital of India. I came here all the way from Lalitpur, Nepal with my parents to travel around Dehradun, a popular tourist destination of India. We also had a plan to visit a Medical College named Dehradun College of Medical Sciences, a renowned college of India, for me to study MBBS in it the following year as I was studying in grade 12 that year. We had rented a small house that belonged to some local rich man. The house was a kilometer away from the college hostel, and we stayed there as we could not find any suitable lodges in the town and those available were quite uncomfortable and dirty. It had been 3 days since we got here. My mother had just ended a phone call with my maternal grandparents, who were in Nepal. They were quite upset that they could not come along with us as the winter in Dehradun was quite unbearable and they w...

Post Class Reflection: Week 8

Today, on 2 nd September, 2020, we attended one more English Class. I took today’s class with same joy and excitement like the previous classes. There were 2 very interesting presentations lined up for today which made us happier. All of us were eager to begin today’s class and so were the presenters to present their presentations.   The class began with two of my friends presenting on a short story named “Mr. Know All” written by William Somerset Maugham. This was a very interesting story that was presented in an even more fascinating technique. This story deals with the theme of “ Never judge a book by its cover” , with the mentality of people who still carry thoughts of racism. The story tells us that the outer appearance could never unveil the inner reality. The various aspects of this story were presented by the presenters such as the racism that had been shown within the story and various other angles of the story that made it even clearer.     After this, ...

Post Class Reflection: Week 6

  “Knowledge is a treasure that follows its owner everywhere.” So with this positive note, I would like to begin post class reflection of today’s English class, which was as spell binding as the previous classes. One and half hours of learning with equally interesting interactions and discussions with Eak sir was all I needed to write this blog. Today we mainly discussed on Technical Communications part, where we learnt how to write “Incident Reports” and “Lab Reports”.   Firstly few of my friends presented on “Incident Reports”. It was a type of report which was written by the observer of some kind of incident especially damage of physical property or some kind of mishap. These kinds of reports had to answer all types of Wh-questions i.e. what, where, when, etc. regarding that incident such as place, time, cause, effect and damage caused. A reader of the incident report had to understand the entire scenario of the incident and its effects. It had to be completely different...
