COVID-19: Is It Good or Bad?

 


This pandemic causes many activities to a standstill. Almost all work and business activities come to a halt.

Looking at it from a third perspective, it does some good too, globally: reduce carbon emissions, allowing nature and the environment to heal, temporally stopped some unrests in some countries, streamline work processes, more time to reflect, etc.

Overall, my view is it does more harm than good. It’s a chain effect. No business means no income which causes jobs to be lost and more hardships for many workers. More wastes are now generated due to food delivery and disposal PPE used by health care workers and hospitals to treat those infected. Sigh!
