DISRUPTION OF COVID TO OUR LIVES

How Covid-19 Pandemic has Disrupted our Live

Covid-19 pandemic was unexpected and has taken the whole word in a surprise. It has

affected people’s lives in many ways such as health status and social economic life. It has not

only affected the health status of people, but also has dramatically affected livelihoods of people

especially economically. The pandemic has led to high rate of mental issues in US and around

the globe. In addition, it has made many people to develop stress and depression due to isolation

and lockdowns. Isolation and lockdown has not only affected people negatively but also affected

positively to some people. It has been advantage to some people since they are able to connect

with their family members and friends. The pandemic has also affected negatively by declining

the US economy and changing learning schedules.

Decline of US Economy

The pandemic has negatively affected the US economy by disrupting global supply

chains and has also led to lack of jobs and opportunities. Due to lockdowns and curfews, US has

not been exporting or importing goods to various countries in order to limit the spread of the

virus. According to Zhang (2020), most of manufacturing and production companies rely mostly

on imports to produce and manufacture goods. Even though there is pandemic, US economy can

be recovered by following guidelines needed and observe safety measures in order to reduce the

spread of the virus of which will make life go back to normal.

Change in Learning Schedules

Covid-19 has led to closure of schools, colleges and university nationwide. The

government took a step to close schools in order to prevent the spread of the virus towards the

student and the society. According to Haleem (2020), the ministry of education indicated that

learning should continue as usual. They came up with ideas that, learning should be done

through online using smartphones, TVs, and radios. It was a great idea but, it was a challenge to

those located in villages that could not access those gargets.

Conclusion

It is evident that virus has come up with unexpected change into US people’s lives. It has

led to decline of the nation’s economy and has also disrupted learning schedules in the US. In

order to regain learning strategies and nation economy we should keep social distance, observe

safety measures, and follow guidelines provided by World Health Organization (WHO).
