Coronavirus Lockdown could be worst than the disease itself. It is like being in between a fight for your life or jumping a cliff. Maybe it is not that extreme, but the way people live shows you there is something wrong. If the government lifts the curfew many of us will die. The truth you need to hear is we do not know how many people are dying of this pandemic. We do not have an accurate figure because many of us fear getting diagnosed only to be told that we have the virus.
Our society has stigmatized this disease because of the confusion and fear it is causing among us. The truth is we do not want to get news that we can’t see our loved ones when we are sick. We overthink doctors will fear treating us when we are under their care when they find out we have tested positive for the virus. We fear being told we can’t bury our departed because of the regulation of Covid-19 related deaths.
We may find it hard to understand, but the Coronavirus Lockdown is helping us control the pandemic.
People are resolving to treat themselves at home with home remedies or traditional medicines. This method was used by our great grandparents a long time ago, and it worked.
A sure way of getting an estimate is asking the mortuaries how many people have passed away since the coronavirus pandemic. The numbers have doubled and continue to rise every time. We can see around us that it is becoming hard to manage the pandemic. We can also learn from the many calls we get from our friends and family saying a friend or family member has passed on. It was not normal to hear in a week or month that a friend or family member has passed on.
Information reported may not be accurate, but some may argue it should stay that way. We have a right to know the magnitude at which this pandemic has affected us, but we are not ready to face the truth.
On the other side of the scale, the pandemic has affected us financially and affected many more who seek other services like medical care for Cancer patients, Surgery, Malaria treatment, etc. Our businesses and the education of our children have been affected. It is surprising children managed to do their exams for KCPE and KCSE in 2021 despite their challenges. The unfortunate thing is, there is still a large number of students who didn’t do their exams. This is because of a lack of funds from their parents who might have lost their job during this period.
The only sure way of being safe during this pandemic is to maintain the regulation given to us to fight against the pandemic. Prevention is better than a cure. When the vaccine is here, get your loved ones vaccinated and also get vaccinated. Stay away from crowded places and wash your hand regularly. Wear a mask to protect others and sanitize. It is important to disinfect your workplace and home once or twice a week to kill the germs and viruses that may be there on the surfaces or the floor.
