When the world would end Pokemon game with Coronavirus
Science has been forced evicted from our mission to control
the pandemic caused by novel coronavirus.
The clinicians, epidemiologists, virologists, immunologists and finally
the country healers and faith healers, all of them appear to be working separately
to promote their version of science over the viral pandemic than doing anything
worthwhile to the people.
The politicians and administrators to the best of their
ability are playing their favourite politics over the virus to appeal to their ideological
slaves or constituency. Lockdown has
been used as an excellent tool to suppress democracy and fundamental rights of
people than to control the viral spread.
The question of whether the novel coronavirus is such a scary
pathogen and has come to kill humanity, no one can fully say yes nor can say
fully no to the above question.
A few may get infected deep by the virus and the vast majority
of the population may out-survive the virus without much medical problem. From the medical perspective of the vast
majority of people who may not suffer much from the virus is concerned, the
virus is harmless but if we look at the battling life of a few who landed up in
the hospital with full blown COVID 19 and on intense medical care and
monitoring, the virus cannot be dismissed totally as harmless and benign. Only what parameter and behaviour of the
virus we wants to see is going to define whether the virus is deadly or just a
harmless pathogen.
What so far the world has seen is only the usual behaviour of
any secondary pathogen from the novel coronavirus and the virus has not shown any
trait of a ‘true’ pathogen. But the
world has over reacted and caused great havoc to human life through lockdown
than what the virus has really done.
Even a non-pathogen or an opportunistic pathogen also would display
‘some level’ of virulence in most vulnerable group of people but the world has never
recognized or got scared disproportionately over any of those opportunistic
pathogens.
It is not the newness or the pathogenicity of the virus that has
triggered such hyper response or over-reaction of the world. Most people would have seen a new employment
opportunity or market scope in the virus to sell their version of science or
product when the world endures the pandemic and that may be the reason why a
collective and concerted effort was made by the cohorts of science, medicine
and politics to sell fear over the virus in the society.
For the corona market to expand, the cohorts of media, science,
medicine and politics, all of them need the virus; therefore the virus is being
caricatured as a villain. To further
substantiate the villainous character of the virus, Modi used his ‘brute
majority’ to put the nation under lockdown and caused great economic
destruction.
Modi wants Indians to believe that life and livelihood are separate
and livelihood must be denied totally and only then Indians would believe life
is worthier than livelihood and how much Modi cares the life of Indians.
Everyone, starting from the so called medical professionals,
epidemiologists, virologists, politicians did their best to muddle the pond so that
everyone could their easy catch from the pond.
In the above confusion, the marriage between the virus and the
people was happening in India without any hindrance.
To the dismay of many, majority of the infected and recovered
people even started to wonder was they suffered from corona and if so, why they
did not even realize that they had such deadly pathogen. Another set of people wondered why they were
forced to go for quarantine by notifying them as positive for the virus and
allowed them to move back to freedom after 14 or 21 days as they too virtually did
not suffer any health complications even at sub-clinical level?
Ironically most of the state governments are playing the
world famous video game called Pokemon by running after the virus thinking that
is the only way we can prevent the pandemic. WHO is also of the view that the world must play
the Pokemon hunt to eradicate the virus.
WHO knows nothing but test more people and quarantine then and prevent
the pandemic. How a country like India
with so much of socio-economic disparity, poor living condition, diversity can
prevent the viral spread like US or EU countries. More than the virus, Modi has destroyed
India.
Today millions of people suffer job loss, face unemployment
crisis, suffer salary cut, hopeless future etc., all due to the over exploitation
of the new market scope called novel coronavirus by the scientists,
epidemiologists, clinicians, virologists, immunologists and finally the
politicians.
For the good times of all of them, they have collectively destroyed
the economy and the livelihood of millions of people. To add further fuel to the fire, the medical
and scientific community has brought a new fact sheet that those who are
already infected are as susceptible to the virus as uninfected ones or those
yet to get infected by the virus in the community because of poor T cell memory
against the virus.
More than the virus, the so called conglomerate of science,
medicine and politics wants the people to live in fear and only then the
conglomerate can have their business.
Today in proportion to the corona pandemic, anti-corona crusaders
have brought their products in the market in the form of face mask, hand wash,
hand sanitizer, gloves, PPE, immune protection products, faith based healing
recipes, pulse oxymeter, temperature reader etc.
But what is missing virtually is the corona counselling
centres and corona counsellors to further scare the population. Everyone
is competing to get recognition to their views and no doubt whosoever makes the
story so scary is recognized.
Today our society is filled by two distinct populations such
as believers and not believers of the novel coronavirus.
Believers want the world to believe the
scary story of the virus because of own personal reasons but the vast majority
of the non-believers had placed their personal encounter with the virus and
hence does not believe the virus as major threat. Further they also believe livelihood
is as important as life.
In India, Modi is politically an invincible force but at the
same time Modi is also a disaster to democracy and economy. Similarly the virus is highly contagious but is
not a giant killer.
We can save India from the virus only by allowing the man and
the virus to encounter with each other freely and similarly the democracy in
India can be saved only by defeating Modi because the country need stable
economic policies and not emotional rhetoric or Ram temple.
