Understanding the Pandemic  In the beginning, it was a mild illness for most people. But the reality was completely different from what was being felt. The disease which was named Covid-19 or Corona was making people severely ill and was fatal for most of them. The older people and the children were the easy targets of this pandemic; moreover, people with high blood pressure, heart problems, or diabetes appeared to be more susceptible. The death toll due to Covid-19 has already exceeded the death toll that occurred during Ebola, MERS, and SARS. It mainly happened due to a misunderstanding of people regarding the disease as initially it was not taken as a serious or fatal disease. It spread like wildfire and affected the whole world and thus there a time came when it became a must to plan some policies or regulations to bring it to a halt. What challenges were experienced during Covid-19?          Apart from the challenge of the massive death toll, the world had to face several other challenges as well, such as the global economic recession due to the increased number of workers being sick, a ban on transporting goods made the industries to remain closed.

It became more horrible when it attacked the economy, the developed countries managed to survive, but the underdeveloped countries and the people suffered a lot because of the financial crisis as many were either fired or the companies suspended their operations. Many people flew back to their native countries who were working to feed their families and the students who were going to study abroad were also asked to move back to their countries. Covid-19 affected several departments such as education, import, export, manufacturing, and the list is long What were the strategies planned by the World Health Organization? The WHO was more focused on stopping the transmission and preventing it to spread further. In order to prevent it is further spreading the steps were taken on emergency grounds:

  2. Online work was preferred and encouraged to keep the hazardous health condition in view and for the safety of people.
  3. People with cases in a family, with either a few or no symptoms, were requested for Covid-19 tests.
  4. A complete ban was imposed on international as well as domestic traveling to avoid human interaction and promote social distancing.
