The coronavirus was responsible for the Covid-19 pandemic.

It is an infectious
disease that has affected millions of people’s lives. The pandemic has impacted people all across
the world in diverse ways. It was first discovered in Wuhan, China, in 2019. However, the
World Health Organization (WHO) proclaimed it a pandemic in March 2020, claiming that it
has spread throughout the globe like wildfire. The pandemic has claimed the lives of millions of
people. The virus had negative consequences for those who were infected, including the
development of a variety of chronic disorders. The main symptoms of this disease were loss of
smell and taste, fatigue, pale skin, sneezing, coughing, oxygen deficiency, etc. Because Covid-19
was an infectious disease, all those who were infected were instructed to segregate themselves
from those who were not. The folks who were affected were separated from their families and
locked in a room. The government has prioritised people’s safety. The frontline personnel were
like superheroes, working tirelessly to ensure the public’s safety. For the sake of their patients’
and close relatives’ safety, many doctors had to stay away from their families and babies. The
government had also taken significant steps and implemented different protocols for the
protection of people.
The Indian Express has an article about the aftermath of the floods in
Himachal Pradesh. The floods have been caused by flash floods,
cloudbursts, and landslides. The floods have killed hundreds of people
and left many more missing. The floods have also damaged homes,
vehicles, and farmland. Some say that the floods are more human-made
than natural. Professor ON Bhargwa, a geologist, argues that concrete
structures on river banks are obstructing natural seepage processes.
This can lead to flooding and alter river courses.
