Year 2020 is a super eventful and unexpected year for all. And the year passes soooo fast that I didn't know that I had not blog anything about it and this is my very first post for the year, and its the last month of the year!!! Sorry to myself for not blogging anything that had happened.
This is the year which makes everyone learn to go online, buy online, update everything on their social media account and make everyone learn to cook at home too!!
When the year started, we thought it will just be another new year, everything would be as per normal and lives just go on as usual. Right during our Lunar new year celebration, news were focus on a new disease, which is known as CoronaVirus and started off in the country of China, Wuhan province. Little of the virus were known back then, and seems that all of a sudden, many people were dying from this unknown virus and social media had been spreading videos of dead bodies stacking in hospitals and the medical personnels were all putting on full gowns while attending to patients and many many medical personnels were infected too. Suddenly, masks and antibacterial wipes, wash and spray were snatched off the shelves overnight! We were always on the news trying to look out for any infected case in our country as well as which other countries are infected.
I do not remember doing any of those things during the SARS period, though I was working back then but I really do not recall putting on a mask when am outdoor, neither did I carry a bottle of hand sanitizer back then. And somehow, things were not out of control as compared to our current situation. I guess this is mainly due to that there were no social media back then, news was not as instantaneous as compared to now. The spread of fake news was not heard or seen of. Everything we know were told to us through the daily TV news or radio news reporting else its from the newspaper.
Anyways, this is the year in which we learn to don our mask whenever we leave our house. Always bring along a bottle hand sanitizer when we go out. Scanning of QR scans wherever we are, taking temperatures a few times a day, less social acitivy as possible. Even children learn to go for online lessons and working adults attend online meetings and trainings so frequently. This is our new way of living comes year 2020 and forward!!! Cheers!! 🥂
