How This COVID-19 Pandemic Changes People’s Perspective

This Coronavirus world health issue brings people to the verge of multiple realizations. The situation becomes a window for the people to understand that nothing in this world today is safe. The virus affects every individual regardless of their status, age, sexual orientation, and religious beliefs. There are no exemptions as to who are the ones that should get and not get infected. It is a sad moment for everybody’s lives because the situations trigger anxiety and depression at unexpected levels.

Now that people live in constant fear where a world tries its best to achieve health safety, the way they see things becomes different. Individuals are far more eager and stubborn. Yes, most people understand the situation. But not all of them are capable of realizing the importance of following rules. Some complain a lot, and others merely do not care. Honestly, you can’t blame them because everyone deals with the situation differently. But what are the top reasons this pandemic changes how people see things?

Scarcity

An on-point answer to the previous question is scarcity. People complain because of the shortage of resources everywhere. There is not enough supply of food, shelter, and medicines. Even hospitals are out of equipment as well. The worst part of the struggle is that only those individuals who can afford to pay their way out of misery are lucky enough to get everything they need. And those unfortunate people can only wish and pray that they will be able to survive this world crisis without having anything in the table. You see, this is not only about health issues anymore. The whole situation is now consigning everything, including the world economy. There are billions of people in the world that need help. But only a few resources are available. And in some unfortunate cases, those who handle the supplies take more than for themselves.

Survival

Perhaps you understand that it is wrong to judge people based on what they do because this situation is different. In this time of the pandemic, all are guilty of thinking about their safety. People focus more on saving their lives because they want to survive. We can’t deny the selfishness within each one of us now because it is no use. This pandemic shows us that the true nature of humans depends on their eagerness to stay alive, with or without considerations. No one wants to become a hero at this point because saving thousands of lives will be an impossible battle at this moment. Well, in case some specific persons consider sacrificing their lives for the benefit of the public, then that is an honorable move. But then I assure you that 99% of people will never consider giving up their lives for the survival of the majority. And if you think about the worst that might happen if this pandemic will not end soon, people will quickly kill to continue existence.

Death

Death is the number one unfortunate ending that we all can expect if this situation continues. If you haven’t noticed it, the number of people who continue to die arises. No, perhaps the situation is still under control as of now because there are still safety measures that people can do. But when the time comes that all people start to lose hope, then that is a massive downfall for humanity. Everyone will choose death. Hopefully, it won’t be the end.

No one can say when everything will be over. Hopefully, even though the situation becomes worse every day, people will still stay positive despite all the negativity. I pray that all will have the physical, emotional, and mental courage to fight this pandemic.
