The title of this page, “Covid-19 Worldwide Pandemic.” Is a phenomenon in the history of man.
Covid -19 is an infectious disease, worldwide means Countries in the world, the word pandemic means out of control.
For the first time, in the history of man. The world experienced an infectious disease, with deadly consequences immediately after the first confirmed case in an area.
As we came to realize that the recommendations of:
Wearing a mask
Washing of hands
Social distancing
Immediate quarantine if you believe you were exposed to someone who is or may be positive.
Testing
Contact tracing
Lockdown of an area
No gathering and no socializing with family or anyone, not within your immediate household.
Seemed to be a great imposition at first.
However, as we witness the first outbreak in Wuhan City, China in October 2019. Followed by a ravaging surge in 2020 where Italy, England, the US and other infected Countries throughout the world, with hot spots and break outs worldwide.
The loss of over 3.5 million lives worldwide to a disease is un- comprehendible, more shocking is the time span from October 2019 to present, June 2021.
20 months, is a noticeably short period of time to lose over 3.5 million lives, especially during peace time, without a declaration of war between nations. Many of the deceased were in good health, without any pre-existing medical condition.
Individuals from a broad spectrum of life, race, age, sex, nationality, financial status, and professional careers.
No one was exempt from contracting the virus. We were all at the mercy of the 8 listed recommendations and diligence in which we carried them out.
All of us alive today, can confidently say that complying with the 8 suggestions were a life saver. It prevented us from contracting the virus.
The loss of over 3.5 million lives is a travesty.
The billions of us whose lives were spared, we are now living in a post pandemic world of Covid -19, where the world economics became a casualty of the pandemic.
The lock down and the closing of our boarders, affected all industries and businesses.
Recovering from Covid 19, will be different for every Country, and every Industry. Recovery will be equivalent to their economic and technological strength.
As humans, some of us will recover from financial losses while others will recover from the turmoil and destruction of the pandemic.
Globally as more people become vaccinated and we begin to recover from Covid-19, we must also remember to remain vigilant about the 8 recommendations which kept billions of us safe.
Looking at the year 2020, what are your most enduring memories, and experiences of the pandemic?
In 1888, German philosopher Friedrich Nietzsche first stated, “Out of life’s school of war—what doesn’t kill me, makes me stronger.”
As a survivor of Covid- 19, does Nietzsche’s quote have a significant meaning to you as an individual or as an entrepreneur?
As we go forward beyond Covid, I’m reminded of this verse in Philippians 3:13- 14 which reads.
“Reaching forth unto those things which are before.
I press towards, the mark for the prize of the high calling of God in Christ Jesus”.
As a people, let us each press towards, the mark for the prize of the high calling in our personal and professional endeavors.
Share with us how you are pressing towards the mark for your high calling, as we recover globally from Covid-19 pandemic.
Continued Success in all your endeavors,
Donna.
