What not to do when lockdown ends M ost of you would be wait- ing to meet your extended family members and friends after the lockdown is over. However, remem- ber that even if COVID-19 cases reduce in India, the virus won’t disappear overnight. So, it will be more important than ever to safeguard your health post lockdown (whenever that happens). DON’T PLAN A VACATION: It was mainly the movement of people from one coun- try to another which led to such a worldwide spread of the disease. Even if the lockdown rules are re- laxed, don’t plan a family vacation for few months. DON’T STOP WASHING HANDS: One good habit which the spread of COVID-19 has inculcated in people is hand hygiene. Don’t stop this good habit of regularly washing your hands as it will keep you healthy, even when coronavirus is gone. DON’T PUT AWAY FACE MASKS: As the saying goes ‘Precaution is better than cure’, it is the best option to still use your face masks while in public. Ditto for social distancing. NOT TAKING CARE OF RES- PIRATORY HYGIENE: It’s a bad habit to cough or sneeze openly in public. Cover your mouth with a tissue or cough and sneeze in your folded arm. This etiquette saves people from many viruses. What: A study by Princeton Uni- versity (PU) and the Centre for Disease Dynamics, Economics and Policy (CDDEP) — a health advocacy group — has said that countries like India may be bet- ter off depending on herd immuni- ty to tackle COVID -19 rather than a lockdown. Why: Herd immunity refers to a scenario in which a large sec- tion of the population becomes im- mune to a disease through vacci- nation or prior illness. How: Since there’s no vaccine, develop- ing herd immunity involves deliberately introducing the virus among the populace. A study advocates releasing the pathogen in a controlled manner by lifting the lockdown and allowing the workforce to resume their jobs, predicting that 60% of the Indian population will develop herd immunity by November. WILL IT WORK Theoretically, yes — measles, which is extremely contagious, with one person able to infect 18 others, needs at least 95% of the popula- tion to become immune in order to develop herd immunity. It was declared eliminated in 2000. COVID-19, which is far less contagious in that one person can infect 2-3 new people, requires 60% of the population to be immune, in order for herd immunity to kick in People of our country are fighting this war with the administration... We are also fighting poverty... I am proud that all of us are part of it... All of us are soldiers in this fight. When people talk about this period they will talk about our people driven initiatives. Our ‘taali, thaali & diya’ initiatives have kept spirits high. Our farmers are working day and night in their fields to ensure that no one goes hun- gry...there are people who are giving up rents and there are people who are giving up their pension. I bow and respect the 130cr people of this country for what they are doing during this time. Every sector has been inno- vating during this period... whether it be people from aviation or railways, they are all working to make our lives easier... they are working hard to deliver medicines and other essentials to all parts of the country. People around the world are falling back to Ayurveda and Yoga to fight COVID-19. We need to be more confident about our old teachings. We need to wear masks... it has become a part of our daily lives... it has not happened before but this is the new reality. Our perception about masks will change very soon. The month of Ramzan has begun. Last time, during Ramzan, we never imagined that something like this will happen. We have to be more resilient and reserved during this Ramzan so that we can celebrate Eid when it comes. We should not be over confi- dent.
