The alarm rings and I wake up....Well that's a nutshell of how the corona virus affected me. There have been huge effects on the global economy and world population.Then again, the work by our country's frontline workers, the doctors, nurses, lab technicians, policemen, teachers, shopkeepers etc.I am aware that taking precautions, like wearing masks, gloves, avoiding unnecessary travels, practicing social distancing and staying home will keep us safe.As we all know the novel corona virus has unleashed a massive scale worldwide scare and lockdown of many things, we considered usual and took for granted.Washing our hands regularly with soap and the use of sanitizers has increased which I think is one of the positive effects of the pandemic.The ozone layer has been repairing itself faster, more plants and animals have started growing as there is less interreference from man.The lockdown in many parts of the world including our own U.A.E. has reduced the pollution to a large level and it seems Mother Nature is rejuvenating herself.Since the outbreak, the UAE has completed more than 2m tests for coronavirus in an effort to track and trace every case.Another big bother has been the wearing of these blue and white bits of fabric, masks as they are called.I totally dislike it for the fact that I can't see anyone smile anymore but yes prevention is better than cure and the only way we can protect ourselves is by breaking the chain of the coronavirus spread.One major change has been the renewed importance given to staying hygienic and clean.That's the biggest effect this coronavirus pandemic has brought into my life.Take going to school, going to the mosque to pray, going over to friend's house for a birthday party, etc.It has been online classes where we sit in front of these boring laptops all day long.It is necessary that we all wear masks to prevent the spread of the virus by droplets.We should be careful when we dispose our gloves and masks so that its is safe and thrown off properly.I have online classes.Not all effects of the pandemic have been bad.Well yes.
