Covid-19 and how the world handled it

As the third wave of Covid-19 hit, me, Jashan, along with Dio and Ferry, got together
and we thought how some countries were being affected heavily in the world, but some seemed
relatively unfazed by the third wave, and we wanted to investigate the why. Therefore, we
decided to find out more on this topic, recording results in a poster, with the aim of raising
awareness about what the government could have done to stop the outbreak of Covid-19. Also,
we aim to educate people on how they could take the initiative to help their government’s
initiative(s).

So, in our poster, we’ve elaborated on the factors that influence how Covid-19, which
countries have been successful and unsuccessful in battling Covid-19, and also what the world
could’ve done better. For our interview, we had 3 participants, Mr. Richie Donnal Putra from
Bogor, Ibu Shinta Irmayanti, from Tasikmalaya, and Mr. Matthew Rizzoli, who is an Indo-
Canadian. From our interviewees, the main difference in their answers were in the last 4
questions, which show how their backgrounds affected their responses, as Ibu Shinta was
talking more about the health aspect of things, while Mr. Matthew were talking more about the
business and service-oriented aspects.

This is one way we’ve shown different cultural perspectives from different backgrounds
due to the topic involving a lot of different sectors. To conclude, from our interview, we found
that to governments could’ve utilized travel bans and boosted online grocery services as one
way to better handle Covid-19, alongside a great supply of PPE, and also a decent information
spreading system. Us as citizens can help by doing exactly what the government has told us to,
get vaccinated, and stay healthy by eating good food, exercising, and overall maintaining our
health.
