- What is the problem with healthcare?
Presently, the influence of COVID-19 in regular life is extensive and far-reaching. The consequences are well seen in the healthcare sector. These include the following:
• Burden of functioning in the medical system.
• Overloading of pharmaceutical shops.
• Disruption in the supply chain.
• Disruption in medical treatment.
• Challenges in diagnosis, treatment, and quarantine of suspected cases.
• Patients with existing diseases and health issues do not get proper attention.
The healthcare sector all across the globe is experiencing the issue because of the lack of funding. Along with this, the frontline workers are at a high risk of contemplating the disease. It is the most critical reason many countries’ healthcare sectors have crashed. The need of the hour is proper research and evaluation of the healthcare sector to ensure that the medical scenario operates seamlessly. Along with this, the patients must get individual attention so that the symptoms do not aggravate. Remember that pharmaceutical shops must have a proper supply of medicine, and the supply chain must ensure everything goes smoothly.
- Explore the economic downturn
The economy of different countries has experienced turmoil in the last two years. Slow manufacture of vital goods, disruption in the supply chain of commodities, and loss of international and national businesses are well-established facts. There is also improper market cash flow and a significant revenue growth slowdown. The need of the hour is proper coordination between national and international agencies to ensure appropriate economic functioning. Along with this, the following steps are necessary:
• Governments must come forward to ensure proper funding of different economic activities.
• Start-ups and novice entrepreneurs must get grants and loans from higher institutions.
Industries that have shut down need to get back to business by slowly increasing their operation and engaging in the supply chain.
- Understand the social impact
The service sector does not provide proper services to its target audience. Postponement and cancellation of large-scale tournaments and sports are not uncommon. Avoiding international and national traveling with the cancellation of services is very much evident. Along with this, there is a disruption of religious, cultural, and social events. Stress on the population and social distancing with family members and peers only adds to their anxiety and depression. Closure to restaurants, hotels, and religious places has also added to the social isolation of people.
The overall picture is depressing. However, there is still some hope for all. Restriction and lockdown are necessary so that every country gets back on track. Every citizen must understand the significance of social distancing and identify its positive impact of that on their lives. Along with this, they must be cautious of the reports of different health agencies and adhere to them.
Remember that healthcare professionals are taking risks and trying to cater to the population. Hence, citizens can do their minimum by observing safety measures to ensure a healthy and happy life. Remember that a coordinated effort by the citizens of every nation can go a long way in curtailing the covid-19 pandemic. If you act like a responsible person, you can avoid the dangers of post covid scenarios. The days are not far when you see the curve’s flattening with your positive effort. Hence, the responsibility lies on your shoulders to curtail future pandemics.
