Battling Covid-19

Covid-19 has overturned the lives of the citizens of Dhaka in the past year. The spread of the
disease is also not likely to slow down any time soon unless we take the necessary steps. It is highly
contagious hence educating people about the viral disease has become crucial. It can be done in a
number of ways from showing it on TV to handing out pamphlets to taking necessary steps or inflicting
punishments due to failure to follow the rules during the pandemic.

Firstly, the citizens can be made aware by distributing educational handouts/pamphlets with bullet
points about Covid-19 with the necessary information such as wearing a mask, social distancing etc. The
pamphlets need to be eye catching so that the targeted audience become interested enough to read
through it.

Awareness about the disease can be also spread through TV ads where it can show a brief summary
on how to reduce the spread of covid-19 and also how to sanitize oneself and their surroundings. The
advertisements should be to the point and not too complicated to prevent the viewers from being too
overwhelmed.

Lastly, the government can set rules like facing punishments or fines for those who are unable to
follow the covid-19 regulations. It can be a necessary step to decrease the number of covid-19 patients
since the citizens would finally understand the weight these regulations carry and can also be educated
in the process.

Battling the pandemic is like a team work hence it is absolutely necessary for everyone to be
educated on the matter. Only through education can we finally go back to our daily lives. The process of
education needs to be simple and encouraging and not too complicated or overwhelming to ensure
everyone can understand and follow the rules accordingly.
