 CORONAVIRUS (COVID-19)

 Coronaviruses are a group of related RNA viruses that cause diseases in mammals
and birds. In humans and birds they cause respiratory tract infections that can
range from mild to lethal. Mild illnesses in humans include some cases of the
common cold (which is also caused by other viruses, predominantly ‘Rhinoviruses’),
while more lethal varieties can cause ‘SARS’, ‘MERS’ and ‘COVID-19’.
 INTRODUCTORY STATEMENT

Coronavirus disease (COVID-19) is an infectious disease caused by

the SARS-CoV-2 virus.
Most people infected with the virus will experience mild to moderate
respiratory illness and recover without requiring special treatment.
However, some will become seriously ill and require medical attention.
Older people and those with underlying medical conditions like
cardiovascular disease, diabetes, chronic respiratory disease, or
cancer are more likely to develop serious illness. Anyone can get sick
with COVID-19 and become seriously ill or die at any age.
 What are the main symptoms of Covid?

Possible symptoms include:

•Fever or chills.
•Cough.
•Shortness of breath or difficulty breathing.
•Fatigue.
•Muscle or body aches.
•Headache
Less common symptoms:
aches and pains
sore throat
diarrhea
conjunctivitis
headache
loss of taste or smell
a rash on skin, or discoloration of fingers or toes
 HOW TO STAY AWAY FROM CORONAVIRUS

The best way to protect yourself against COVID-19 is by frequently

washing your hands with soap and water, covering your coughs and
sneezes and avoiding crowded places

FACT: The virus lives inside the body where the

temperature is maintained at 37ºC and is not a ected by a
hot water bath that you have.

Clean your hands frequently with alcohol-based hand rub or soap and water. Cover
your mouth and nose with a bent elbow or tissue when you cough or sneeze. Dispose
of used tissues immediately and clean hands regularly. If you develop symptoms or
test positive for COVID-19, self-isolate until you recover.
 COMPARATIVE CASE STUDY OF THE
SITUATIONS ALL OVER INDIA AND SOME HIGHLY
POPULATED STATES
 Rise and Impact of COVID-19 in India
 The Coronavirus disease (COVID-19) pandemic which originated in the
city of Wuhan , China has quickly spread to various countries with many
cases having been reported worldwide. As of may 8th , 2020 , in India
56,342 positive cases have been reported. India , with a population of
more than 1.34 billion- second largest population in the world will have
difficulty in controlling the transmission of severe acute respiratory
syndrome coronavirus 2 among it’s population.

 The Ministry Of Health And Family welfare of India has raised awareness
about the recent outbreak and has taken necessary actions to control
the spread of COVID-19. The central and the state governments are
taking several measures and formulating several wartime protocols to
achieve this goal. Moreover, the Indian government implemented 55-
days lockdown throughout the country that started on march 25th 2020
to reduce the transmission of the virus.
EFFECTS OF COVID JAMMU AND KASHMIR IN EARLY 2020

On 7 March, primary schools in Jammu and Samba districts were closed down until 31 March after two suspected
cases with "high viral load" were reported in Jammu. On 15 March, Shri Mata Vaishnov Devi Shrine Board asked non-
resident Indians and foreigners not to visit the temple for 28 days after landing in India. On 18 March, Jammu and
Kashmir banned entry of all foreign tourists.
In the last week of May 2020 testing numbers of the J&K were the highest in India at 10,000 tests per million
population. On 7 June 2020, districts in the state were classified into three types of containment zones. Guidelines
related to testing and quarantine protocols during the first wave included:
•Anyone entering the UT by road, rail and air has to take mandatory COVID-19 test and undergo institutional quarantine
till the test results are received.
•After receiving the test results, individuals tested negative can return home but have to undertake a 14-day home
quarantine. COVID positive individuals are relocated to dedicated healthcare facilities for treatment.
•Travellers can also opt for a paid hospitality quarantine by registering themselves for one at KIOSKS where the
samples for tests are collected.
•Travellers from Districts designated as Red zones to Orange zone Districts within the UT to undergo same testing and
quarantine regime.
Categories exempted from the mandatory quarantine protocols included pregnant women, mothers with infants below
1yr; cancer, chronically ill and dialysis patients; children below 10 years travelling alone; personnel on duty; Travelers
with COVID negative test certificate issued by ICMR approved labs and not older than 48hrs; and CAPF and Armed
forces personnel reporting for active duty in the Union Territory, will be sent to their respective formations.
On 5 June, the Government ordered its employees to attend offices on regular basis beginning 6 June. High-risk groups
have been advised to take extra precautions or work from home and will not be attending frontline duties or involvement
in public dealings. Incremental unlock of the state extended into December 2020.
 COVID-19 SITUATIONS IN MAHARASHTRA

 COVID-19 pandemic in Maharashtra was confirmed on 9th of

march 2020.

 Maharashtra is a hotspot that accounts for nearly one-third of the

total cases in India as well as about 40% of all deaths. As of 7 July,
the state’s case fatality rate is nearly 4.3%, which is lower than the
Global average but significantly higher than other Indian States
with large number of cases.

 Mumbai is the worst-affected city in India with about 100,000

cases. About half of the cases in the state emerged from the
Mumbai Metropolitan Region (MMR).
 PANDEMIC IN TAMIL NADU

The first case of the COVID-19 pandemic in the Indian state of Tamil Nadu was reported on 7 March
2020.
The largest single-day spike (36,987 cases) was reported on 13 May 2021 and Tamil Nadu now has
the fourth highest number of confirmed cases in India after Maharashtra, Kerala and Karnataka. All
38 districts of the state are affected by the pandemic, with capital district Chennai being the worst
affected.

As per the Health Department, 88% of the patients are asymptomatic while 84% of deaths were
among those with co-morbidities. In June, the state saw a surge in deaths with 209 deaths (36% of
the state's recorded deaths) occurring between 11 and 16 June 2020.Another large local cluster
in Koyambedu of Chennai was identified in May 2020.
The state government has responded to the outbreak by following a contact-tracing, testing and
surveillance model. The state has 85 laboratories approved by Indian Council of Medical
Research (ICMR), capable of conducting test(S). The state has been under a lockdown since 25
March which was relaxed to an extent from 4 May onwards. The lockdown was further extended
until 30 June with significant relaxations from 1 June 2020. The state has enforced a stricter
lockdown in four majorly-affected districts which includes Chennai and its three neighbouring
districts of Chengalpattu, Thiruvallur and Kancheepuram from 19 to 30 June 2020
 COVID-19 SITUATIONS IN ODISHA

 The first case of the COVID-19

Pandemic was confirmed in
the Indian State of Odisha in
16th of March 2020. The state
has confirmed 3,29,306 cases,
including 2,607 active cases
3,24,775 recoveries and 1,871
deaths as of 30 December.
Early Steps That Proved To Be Beneficial For Odisha
 The state took a series of steps at an early stage to contain the spread of
coronavirus and break the chain of infection as soon as the first case was
reported on March 16.
 By March 22, Naveen Patnaik announced a lockdown of 40% of the
state, especially those areas which were affected by the virus and said
that a strict lockdown will be observed for a week.
 This was three days before the nation-wide lockdown came into effect
from March 25.
 Odisha then became one of the first Indian state to further extent the
lockdown to the entire state.
 Odisha became the first state to come up with India’s first COVID-19
special hospitals.
 Odisha signed two MoUs with city-based hospitals Kalinga Institute of
Medical Sciences and one with SUM Medical College for a combined
1000 dedicated beds facility for treating coronavirus patients in the state.
 Conclusion And Mission on COVID-19
 The novel coronavirus spread so rapidly that it has changed the rhythm of the
globe. Whether from the perspective of a single country or multilateral levels,
the solidity of international relations has been put under test. The most obvious
consequences include economic recession, a crisis of global governance, trade
protectionism and increasing isolationist sentiment. People-to-people,

After we overcome the pandemic, which will surely happen, we must carry out
a comprehensive evaluation of the world's ability to maintain stability when
faced with similar challenges in the future. We must also craft measures to
cope with these challenges together. But perhaps at the current phase.
A pandemic is not new in human history. But what makes the COVID-19 pandemic special is that it takes place in
an unprecedented backdrop when the interconnectivity and interdependence between people, between countries
and between continents are so deep. The achievements people have made in technology, intelligence and
transportation make them both physically and psychologically globalized.

The consequence is that problems in one country will become global ones. Long ago we raised warnings, and we
cannot underestimate the danger of multinational threats, from terrorism to cybercrimes.

Similarly, if one isolates oneself and relies on others to solve one's own problems, it is simply impossible. The effect
of the virus has clearly proved this. The pandemic reminds us that we need to stay humble in the face of disasters.
Any country or individual, regardless of their geography, fortunes or political ambitions, is equal. The novel
coronavirus crisis rips off all fanciful illusions and superficial things and displays the lasting value of human life.
