Indonesia is undergoing an emergency Corona Virus , so vigilance for this virus needs to be improved. There needs to be a joint commitment to prevent the spread of Corona Virus so that it can reduce its spread in the community.
The condition of Indonesia is currently being hit by a crisis. This crisis is so frightening. The pathogen named Corona virus has claimed many lives. The virus that is thought to have a once-in-a-century cycle of spread is worrying. Even many who apply lockdown to reduce the rate of expansion of this virus.
Indonesia also implements this step, standalone lockdown. Schools, offices, as well as a number of public facilities were also closed. This is to anticipate the spread of viruses between humans. This global pandemic has captured the world’s attention. Various complications caused by this pandemic are very concerned, the economy is chaotic, purchasing power is reduced, the buying and selling sector is declining even as if dead. However, on the bright side, we are required to unite to fight this epidemic.
We don’t know what else we have to give to the country. Apart from the great support for their contribution. The government is currently struggling to tackle this virus. Various efforts are being intensified and suggestions are promoted. So that citizens can also play an active role in helping to suppress the numbers of spread which continues to surge.
However, in the midst of this horror are still just elements who are looking for opportunities. Hoard a variety of medical equipment , such as masks, PPE, to others. While other are competing to save lives, it is instead on gathering wealth. This is called dancing on the suffering of others. Stop being selfish!
Let’s clean up again, the country is fighting the deadly virus. Indonesia is experiencing a Corona emergency. Stop spreading hoaxes or memes that raise concerns. We don’t know how long the plague will last. If not from us, who will?
One effort to support the government is to obey all rules. Wear a mask, hand sanitizer until washing hands before and after the move. The application of social distancing can also be done. Keep a minimum safe distance of 1 meter. to avoid spreading this virus. Viruses that are able to survive in the air, the surface of objects with different duration of time is what needs to be watched out for. Not only air, objects around us can potentially transmit (if the patient’s hands have been touched, without being cleaned first).
Since the outbreak of this virus, news (terrible) has dominated. In fact, the funeral procession without the presence of the closest people for fear of contracting, this feels heartbreaking.
In Italy alone which incidentally has technological sophistication to medical devices, reporting death touches hundreds. In fact, some claim the number of victims in Italy is greater than in Wuhan, the city where this virus originated. Not to mention other regions that also show a large mortality rate.
What exactly is this Corona? why so scary? Viruses that can only be seen with the help of a tool called a microscope and enlarged the forest this time can kill hundreds to thousands of people in an instant. Symptoms such as; mild cough, high fever more than 38 degrees, until shortness of breath become the initial characteristics of the transmission of COVID-19. Therefore, the government continues to appeal to remain vigilant. If there are suspicious symptoms immediately consult a health center. To prevent a variety of possibilities , there will be no delay in handling.
We don’t know when this pandemic will pass. Early on, apply a healthy lifestyle and maintain immunity. The reason is good immunity can be a protocol for fighting various diseases or viruses that attack. Take care of your diet, exercise and always wash your hands. In order to minimize this pandemic exposure. Do not leave the house if there is nothing urgent. If it is very urgent, wear a mask and other supporting tools. Change clothes after leaving the house.
The things mentioned above are only a handful of suggestions that we can apply. We must try as much as possible. Even though we are in a healthy position, we don’t know if we have the potential to become agents of transmission. So it is better to continue to obey the government’s recommendations . After all, this is for our common good. After trying our best, we trust (surrender to God). Let’s be with Corona opponents! We certainly can!
