At present, the condition of Indonesia is facing a big enemy, the Corona virus . WHO (World Health Organization ) as an organization in charge of international health affairs, has raised Corona’s status to become a pandemic with the meaning that the virus is quickly transmitted throughout the world. And now Corona is a common enemy of the world.
As of April 6, 2020, the number of victims who tested positive for Covid-19 in Indonesia had reached 2,491. The number that was declared healed was 192 people, while the number that was declared dead was 209 people.
Like terrorism, Corona ‘s scattered hoaxes create panic and public anxiety that have the potential to trigger mass frustration . Therefore, let’s think positively by looking for positive and inspirational news .
The number of people infected with Corona is increasing day by day, so there is a need for synergy between individuals. If we really care about this Corona pandemic , we really have to work hand in hand, help each other, and try to suit each level.
If doctors and medical personnel are currently at the forefront in dealing with Corona patients , then the media crews should also be able to provide educative information about reporting about Corona . Because at this time hoax news about Corona quite a lot. The government also needs to synergize quickly and be responsive in making a policy to be more serious in handling Corona . While the community continues to provide wholehearted support in a simple way, namely not doing activities outside the home.
This is a form of solidarity. When all levels and lines can work together and be actively involved in fighting the virus, not busy blaming here and there without providing a solution. Only by working together, holding hands, and promoting mutual cooperation, we can come out as winners. Viruses can be tamed. Malignancy can be paralyzed. It all depends on us, the stronger we synergize together against Corona , then we can be sure this virus can be overcome.
Let’s join the Government and Ministry of Health instructions in efforts to prevent Corona Virus . If you feel symptoms of Covid-19, call the emergency telephone number for handling Covid-19.
