 Social Media and Covid-19
The first patient of Corona was found in Wuhan, the city of china at the end of 2019 that ‘s why its
called COVID-19. Corona is the most dangerous virus that has killed more humans in a very short
interval of time than other diseases because it spreads from humans to humans on a very large
scale. There is always our carelessness behind the spread of many crimes and diseases.

Many other diseases are also found in Pakistan that are not cured easily like dengue fever, Hepatitis,
Cancer, diabetes, etc and corona is one of them but most dangerous. People making their own
theories about this disease. Many people think that there is no coronavirus in the world it is only the
conspiracy of the evil humans for spreading poorness, illiteracy, economic instability, and fear of
death. Many people's theories are doctors are taking money to test people positive for corona and
kill them by giving them poison injection but this is not the truth. Some say that Pakistanis are more
power full then corona and making the fun of this disease. But this virus really exists and killing
humans rapidly. Coronavirus symptoms appear in 14 days after entering the human body and after
that, the patient can die in two to three weeks. Italy was the first country in which the death rate by
corona was increased very fast (238,833 cases and 34,675 death) because they had not taken action
about this. And we are making that mistake because people have no serious awareness about this.
Today the total cases of corona in Pakistan are 188,926 and deaths are 3755. The other ways to cure
corona patients like using Hydroxichlorine and by changing the plasma of the patient. But these are
not proper cures the vaccine is pending yet.

On social media, people are spreading fake news and mislead others. They are talking against the
government and the doctors. Some people say that when they took there patient to the doctor the
patient was not in serious condition but the doctor gave the patient the wrong medication and the
patient died. Some say that the diagnosis of the doctor was not accurate and they give the patient
the wrong medication so the patient died. Some people think that there is no corona because they
have not seen any patient on their own in their family. None of there relatives have been tested
positive from the corona. Some people say that it exists but in the other countries and our
government is just making this situation to get help from other countries in the form of money.
People are going for entertainment and enjoyment in quarantine days and post their pictures and
videos on social media which attracts other humans and they also go out for having fun. They are
making funny videos and post them on youtube, Instagram, Facebook, and other social media
website. This video not only for fun but this news also terminates the fear of this disease from
people’s hearts. Social distancing is most important in those days but people are doing the opposite
of it. They are going to malls, visiting places, restaurants, food streets, etc. They are not only
breaking the rules of quarantine but also breaking the SOPs made by the government and when the
government fine them they act like they do nothing for example people don’t wear masks in public
are, don’t use hand sanitizer. Don’t maintain social distance. The government also makes the rules
for mosques. They tell them to make a distance of one meter in every devout. And some social
media influencers share the news that the government is stopping the people to offer their prayers.

Some people posted that drinking alcohol can fight against corona in your body.some are making
memes about this. China properly lockdown Wuhan and other cities for 2 months to get rid of this
disease. But the Pakistani government can not make decisions like china because they thought that
Pakistan is not stable economically and lockdown can destroy the economy of Pakistan that is why
they made some rule for lockdown but people do not accept those rules. Many celebrities like
Shahid Afridi, Abrar-ul-Haq, Rubina Ashraf, Chuhdary Shafqat, and many others are tested positive
for the corona case. That is proof that corona exists. Hospitals are full of patients. Thousand of
People are dying every day. That is time to accept that not to act like a pigeon who closes his eyes
and thinks that the cat is not seeing him. Don’t believe in social media influencers because they are
not doctors and from the health department. There work is only to get views and earn money or to
spread their theories in their followers and then followers spread it to others. If you hear some news
than first go and collect some information about it then share it with others without proof and info
don't share with others. “It might be stormy now, but does not last forever”.

We can not fight this disease alone. we can only fight if we realize our responsibility and our
character in society. By following the rules we not only save our life but can protect others. ” At the
end of the day, the goals are simple: safety and security”.
