Humanity Is Infectious- Now You Know Why!

The history of infectious disease is bewitching. Human antiquity has been much affected by virulent diseases since the dawn of history. The plague of Athens was an epidemic which altered the power between Athens and Sparta which made an end to the Athenian predominance in the ancient world.

 Humans are a resilient bunch. We have lived through ice Age, defeated the horrific war and sent man into the moon. But in the end we could be defeated by a creature that we can’t even see, bacteria. The WHO has added Disease X into their list of concerns that passes serious threat to the human species.

We don’t know where it will come from or in what format. Homosapiens have already faced some truly horrific genocidal viruses through out the history. First came the Black death that wiped out almost 60% of Europe’s population. Then small pox, the Spanish plague, nipah virus and so on.. .So  the current covid-19 cannot be the mega rampant pestilence that the flesh and blood is facing.

With increase in death due to covid-19, crossing 1,08,862 demises; the virus seems to have brought out the best and worst of humanity. Random act of kindness is in a long run in restoring peoples humanity.

Here are some occurrence which lifted the human spirits.

Heart of Gold:

It's profounding where a college student named Jackson Frank from Gonzaga University tweeted to offer financial help do anyone affected by the Covid-19 Pandemic. Later, he started receiving a bombardment of messages from the deprived. He kept his word in assisting the needy and also his tweet attracted others who could offer help as well.

 Rooftop fitness class:

This fitness instructor  in Seville, Spain is not accepting quarantine as an excuse for not working out .He got an entire apartment Complex to host a workout from a roof top  where people join class  from their balconies. Even if it’s only a couple of people, he generates a healthy society.

 Lock down Serenade:

A joy to behold when two young children named Taron Tien & Calliope Tien of nine & six years respectively helps an elderly neighbour of seventy- eight years old who had put herself on self-quarantine . Those kids entertain her by playing a cello Concert  from her neighbours patio .

 Happiness in the Wild:

A professional birder Nick Lund called on his twitter followers to send in pictures of the birds in their backyards. Within hours, pictures of around 230 species of birds, right from bald eagles to wood duck were snapped to him. This work emphasized how nature can bring people together in a frightening time. While our world grinds to a standstill, theirs keeps  moving forward.

You cannot hope to build a better world without improving the individuals. To that end each of us must work for his or her own improvement and at the same time, share a general responsibility for all humanity ,our particular duty being to aid those to whom we think we can be most useful-Marie Curie

These words of Marie Curie on humanity can be reliably seen in current situation of today's world. How fascinating can all these deeds be?

No enmity…just like the milk of churned and disciplined purity.

Li Wenliang, Xu Depy, Xia Sesi.. these are the name of the doctors who died while treating Covid-19 patients in China .Like them several doctors gave up on their life like a soldier by treating the victims. World is on the edge of autocracy, financial collapse and breakdown .Still ,despite of all these challenges we are trying hard to thrive all these dares. The light of unity is so powerful that can irradiate any pandemic in this world .

Faith in humanity is restored.
