‘Human overdoing & conjecture’ may make him ‘ecological trap’ of novel coronavirus, why we make busy virus, lazy?
The entire world to a certain extent and India in particular,
is running and galloping after novel coronavirus and unfortunately India could
not order shoot at sight at the virus because the virus is invisible to all
those gladiators and the only way the virus can be shot down is shoot the
carrier or the COVID 19 patient. Except
killing the host so brutally, India is doing everything possible to put the
asymptomatic people inside the pigeon hole in the name of quarantine and making
the entire zone isolated fortunately not with barbed wire and finally make them
feel their life not worth living in India.
We must ask a strong
question that are we making the so called ‘Homo sapiens’ the ecological trap of
novel coronavirus by overdoing and being naively over ambitious?
Ecological trap means the rapid environmental changes that
induce or force the organism to choose and settle with even in the hostile or
poor quality habitat despite the best habitat is available to the organism.
From the natural selection point of view, the novel
coronavirus may not have chosen man as its host but it looks like accidentally it
had entered into man. But due to super
dominance of man on earth, the virus got exposed to several rapid environmental
changes when the virus travels around the world along with man where the population
differences are ominous and many other un-explainable diversity too exist among
human races in different parts of the world besides the climatic and
environmental changes which collectively and individually may compel the virus
to live with man forever.
Penultimate changes have indeed caused great concern and
confusion not only to human community but also to the virus. Before even know a little about the virus, man
has started to hunt the virus thinking that even a mille second is if wasted in
the war against the virus, the virus many eliminate man from this planet called
earth. Even in the certain death that shall happens to all of us one day, man still
wants to outlive death and if not, postpone the death as much as possible. The unfortunate creature doesn’t even know
when and how he is going to die but the same man un-shaming-ly claims that
lockdown, quarantine and containment procedures have saved several lives from
imminent death.
The fallacy of optimism is that, the world together like a ‘Vasudaiva
kudumbakam’ must fight the virus and only then the virus can be eliminated but
at the same time the man also must maintain and follow social distancing. How we can work together and simultaneously
maintain social distancing keeping 6 feet distance with each other and fight
the virus?
By overdoing, are we not risking man? Are we not creating a possible situation that
the virus may use man as its ultimate host and man sooner than later going to become
the ‘ecological trap’ of the virus? When about 80% of the population is
unaffected by the virus, why should we trap the virus by pushing people into
quarantine chamber, scavenge the virus from transmitting from one to other and
then let the virus to escape?
If man is part of the natural selection of the virus, then
how the virus can be pathogenic to man and can go deadly as described by the
world? Which species on earth would decrease and diminish its survival by
killing its host that the natural selection has offered through several trial
and error means?
When the virus causes
serious disease in certain individuals and go unaffected among large proportion
of population, how can we call such virus so deadly and impose lockdown on
entire country, every activity in the country is paralyzed and failing which
the fear is that, the entire earth’s landmass may belong to the virus, whether
it is White House in US or Buckingham Palace in UK or Eiffel Tower in France or
Taj Mahal in India.
If we compel the virus to stay in human by creating human as
its ecological trap, will the virus ever show any willingness in future to move
to another host even if it is more profiting to the virus? Won’t the virus show laziness to leave man
even if man offers lesser survival advantage to the virus?
Our world economy has
paid huge price to buy the buss word ‘novel’ or new.
The entire world gone crazy and mad over the term novel, the
science of the meaning is, it is new to me, new to you and new to
everyone. Therefore shutdown the country,
paralyze the life of people and if necessary go for cryopreservation methods on
people, but hunt down the virus.
The virus came very busy, contracted from one person to
another so fast, traveled all most all countries and is tireless, agile and
active until now. But are we not making
such busy virus lazy but trapping the virus in all asymptomatic people by pushing
them inside quarantine chamber and making the virus to choose man as its
ecological trap?
When man thought too much about himself, he forgot the misery
of the virus. The real misery the virus is
yet to come as great gift. It is not the
virus but man alone is responsible for the above. If we let the virus go through us, by now the
world would have been free of novel coronavirus or by now the virus would have
lost the tag called novel and become ‘old’ or ‘familiar’ coronavirus?
Was some scientists and
clinicians wants to be busy and hence discovered the virus and its
newness? Used fear to support the ‘holy’
existence of science? Was the virus victim of science and human fear? How long the virus shall remain new and
novel? How long India can be kept under
lockdown, kill the livelihood of people and push millions of migrant workers
orphan, refugees in own mother land?
The virus is witnessed
in the pathology of all most all organs in COVID 19 patients, but never proven
to be the cause! The virus targets only very small proportion of people who are
suffering from wide variety of comorbid conditions, affects the sense of smell
which is biologically not important for man to survive but still we wants to
call the virus a deadly pathogen? The
question is not about calling the virus deadly but we are also making all those
human species without their knowledge and freewill carry the virus as more
deadly than the virus and put them inside a cage called quarantine…. what a
bizarre science we have adopted to fight a virus?
It looks like the virus
may not leave man. The virus may live
with man, sometime may not let man to live.
Whether man wage next level of war against the virus with vaccine or
with potent antivirus drug, the virus will remain with man and by the time we
come up with medicines to contain, the virus would have learned a lot about man
but still the same man may remain ignorant about the virus, still may use the
catch phrase ‘novel’, may still promote fear to rescue his science.
The new world is going to be owned by ignorant science that
wishes to survive with fear and the unbending novel coronavirus. Who knows even in 2050 also the virus may
remain novel to ignorant man because human fear is there for his support and
justification and hence science can easily shelter under such fear.
Man against Man is worse than man against virus
