Coronavirus Epidemic: The Current Situation

Novel Coronavirus or COVID-19 outbreak is a human catastrophe and has continued to disrupt financial markets and global supply chains, the overall impact on global businesses and economic growth. Its blowout has left many businesses around the world with counting costs. 

Looking at the trends in many countries over the last 2 months, India is on the verge of touching Stage 3 of this Epidemic. In this time of urgency, it is the joint responsibility of all 130 Crore plus citizens of India to fight this together and come out of it as a winner. This Epidemic is at such scale that individually, we cannot do any justice in this fight but if we are together, we can fight this easily. 

As requested by Honorable Prime Minister of India, Shri Narendra D Modi Ji on March 19, 2020, in an address to the Nation, we all need to give few weeks of our time to fight this Coronavirus situation.

Few suggestions on how we can jointly fight against this Coronavirus Epidemic:

1)Choose to Stay Home and Work From Home for the next few weeks 

2)If you are a business owner, please allow your team to work from home

3)If you are a manager, please talk to your leaders and enforce work from home 

4)Talk to at least 10 or more people every day and motivate them to Work From Home 

5)Ensure your family members including kids and elderlyStay at Home

6)Maintain social distancing at least 1 meter (3 feet) between yourself and anyone in case you have to step out for urgencies 

If we all jointly take a Pledge to “Work from Home”, we can break the chain of Coronavirus Epidemic.
