‘Guaranteed Survival Benefit’ of novel coronavirus, Jealous or fear rides man?
Like the Siamese twins, the incidence of novel coronavirus is
spiralling up along with our economic disaster.
Loss of livelihood, hopelessness, uncertainty and fear of possible death
etc., are keep emerging like how the fixed number of eggs that forms the clutch
size of several birds and even if we remove one egg, the bird would lay another
egg to fill the quorum of the clutch. The
clutch size is always maintained. So is
the tyranny of people due to lockdown.
Many fruiting plants are known to incur huge economic burden in
order to save their ecosystem; pollinators and seed dispersers even when they
gain nothing from the given season at the given time.
The best examples are parthenocarpy and
stenospermocarpy. Parthenocarpy is a
condition where fruits are formed without fertilization and mostly will have
unfertilized seeds. On the other hand,
stenospermocarpy means the fruit is formed without seeds. The
above conditions often occur may be due to the lack of nutrients to the plant,
lack of pollinators etc. But still the
plants bear the huge economic burden of fruiting without fertilized seeds or
without seeds. The plants bear such
burden mostly to support the seed dispersing animals in order to ensure successful
seed dispersal in next season, hence wants to keep the seed dispersing species
in good stud. That is
how evolution has been programmed.
In this super intelligent programme of evolution, pathogen
and host are no exception. Although no
one has seen who pulls the strings of evolution from behind, commands the
activities and supervise the outcomes and account them or log them etc. Paradoxically some species of life forms are
unduly favoured by evolution and the best example is man in this biome.
When man take undue favours from evolution, celebrate the
nature as if he is the owner and impose the law of ‘contractarianism’ and ‘utilitarianism’
in this world naturally the arrival of novel coronavirus as ‘super power house’
is bound to cause lots of concern. Today man is jealous, jittery and has
reached the state of utter perilousness when the same nature and evolution suddenly
favours a virus.
Possibly the novel coronavirus may be exploring the insurance
policy of ‘guaranteed survival benefit’ issued by evolution by choosing the man
first than any other host. The
possibility of survival for any virus would be extremely high if the virus
chose man than any other species of life on earth as its host.
Imagine, if the virus has chosen frog or cat; the man would
have mercilessly exterminated all cats and frogs on earth to save his
life. When the virus chose man, how man
can kill man in legal sense. May be because
of such limitation only, those who think may die of coronavirus are killing
those who are unlikely to die due to the virus by imposing lockdown; programmed
starvation and loss of livelihood.
The virus if, soon after or just prior to its evolution, perfected
the software and only then taken the ‘guaranteed survival benefit policy’ by
choosing man as its ‘transit’ or final host, then how man can assume he can easily
eliminate the virus. We also must see
the larger scope of the evolution i.e., no species even if, it has come with the
guaranteed survival insurance policy wouldn’t adventure to kill its host just
to expedite the policy.
The real problem of man over novel coronavirus is difficult gauge. We cannot discount two strong possibilities
such as
1.
Jealous
over the ‘guaranteed survival benefit policy’ of the virus
2.
Boundless
fear of death due to COVID 19
The possibility of jealous dominating in man against novel
coronavirus may be the real problem we face today. Man never wants any other species to be more
dominant and powerful than man. Today it
looks like fear of death due to coronavirus is evaporating slowing because
about 80% people are likely to have no effect due to the virus. More than the fear of own death, the quarantine
chamber only bothers many, which is quite stupid and unwise, prima facie.
The jealous of man and his helplessness makes him mad, eccentric,
paranoiac and hence the government may be trying to euthanize the livelihood of
people who are likely to be asymptomatic carriers of the virus so that the
virus is killed…..
As long as the virus has the guaranteed survival benefit policy
issued by the evolution, man has to remain dumb and impoverished before the
virus. Man has grabbed power over nature
but it looks like novel coronavirus is given all powers by the nature and
evolution.
Man has not yet realized the ultimate truth that man is the
soft target for many pathogens in near future because of his over-dominance and
abundance in nature. When plenty of men
are available in this biome, naturally most pathogen in future may chose man
over any other species to enhance its survival opportunity. From the point of view of nature, even if the
population of man reduces by half in this biome, still the nature may allow
such event to happen.
Instead of keep searching and experimenting science of
evolution and Darwin-ism, we also must induct a stream of new wisdom called ‘psychology
of evolution’ and ‘human over dominance’ in nature.
The insurance company would go insolvent only when most of
the life insurance policy holders’ die en mass due to some un-natural causes. Otherwise more customers (policy holders) mean
more profit to the insurance company.
If we allow the virus a free run in human population, the guaranteed
survival benefit policy of the virus would expire soon because the policy
issued by the evolution will be valid only when there is an imminent threat to
its existence. The virus doesn’t looks
like has come to kill man but may be to send a strong message that ‘super man’
may not evolve over man but a super-spreader virus can evolve, can rattle man
and make him jealous and envy, keep him ignorant and utter nonsenses about the
virus as daily ritual.
Instead of being jealous, man has to develop benevolence
towards the virus, government must revoke all forms of lockdown, testing,
quarantine, containment and other measures and people must be freed to move
with the virus.
Protecting own life and life of all relatives must be left to
people and the government must boost its readiness to provide treatment when
there is an emergency. Instead of doing
what we are supposed to do, we are keep building brand over coronavirus to make
the virus to live in our minds and hearts even after the extinction of the
virus. Through such branding we are likely to create
annual festival and feast to commemorate the birth anniversary of novel coronavirus
in India.
We must stop chasing the virus, stop testing people, stop
quarantine and containment procedure and instead we should let India to limb
back to its routine life so that our economy and livelihood of millions are
regained and people are saved.
