In this fast-paced life where people easily forget things and major events including the latest record-breaking song, an earthquake that took the life of thousands of people in a country, or the demise of a renowned leader, a lot of us have forgotten what kind of life we were living just a couple of years back. A life-threatening virus had taken over the world, pushing people to lock themselves behind four walls while forgetting all the material goals, stock markets, or the latest Kardashians fashion trend.
Although it’s a good thing that people are moving on with their lives and no longer living in paranoia, we should not forget that we still haven’t destroyed the monster that is COVID-19. In December 2023, many South Indian states once again made wearing masks mandatory following the detection of JN.1 sub-variant of COVID-19 in the state of Kerala. In January 2024, Japan reported the spread of the new mutant of COVID-19. The experts have cautioned people not to ignore the epidemic and to continue to take anti-epidemic measures. There is a need to shield ourselves from COVID-19 by boosting our immunity and adopting preventive measures.
