Scientists are still trying to find out how and where this virus came from. The first casualties were discovered in a large crowded city of Wuhan in China. This does not mean that it originated there. People who are prejudiced against Chinese, most people in Sri Lanka making up stories and put on FACEBOOK, that Chinese are responsible for this dangerous virus. One faith healer who attracted many thousands of followers, in his You-tube, has confirmed the gossip among the uninformed people of Sri Lanka when no other scientist in the world point the finger at Chinese. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

One thing scientists have agreed is, this virus evolved from Flue Virus which is also a fatal virus among the very old and weak people. Viruses, maybe looking for ways of resisting the medicines scientist discover for each viral decease. Many years ago Botanists discovered that even plants try to adopt them-selves to weed killers after many years of been used on them to kill them. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Things happening around the world now are the things we have never heard before. Since Monday Italy, the country, which has recorded 17,660 infections and 1,266 deaths from the virus, has enacted a set of sweeping measures that have left millions virtually confined to their homes and shut down large parts of the economy. <\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Yesterday Donald Trump declared that big cities in the USA will be shut down from today. Airports restaurants supermarkets, you name it they will be shut down. I believe that they will be looking after the poor and casual workers the same way as the way they do it in Australia. The restaurant staff will be working preparing food and dispatching for home deliveries. Self-employed and small businesses such as those who run their own coffee shops in the city will have to face economic problems. Home delivery people such as Ubar will be victorious. People have to do online shopping which will boost the parcel services employment. People are forced to work from home.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

This will be the future of the world even after recovering from the Coronavirus pandemic. The majority of people will have to do telecommute rather than traveling to work. The advantage is for the future generations, will have petroleum for them and cleaner air to breath. The telecommunication companies will be the winners in this case. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Worldwide people will be automatically cut down pleasure trips, especially those who enjoy traveling by air will have to restrict them-self. Politicians in a country like Sri Lanka will reduce wasting people’s money by restricting their travel around the world. Their spouses and children will be very unhappy(and I am happy about it). Most of the international conferences and meetings will be held using video conferencing systems. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

If you look at the history of Air Pollution level, for example in New York City for the past month and this month to date, you can see that the Air index has dropped by 50% in March as up-to-date, which is good news for the survival of the future generations. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Please scroll and check the History of NY Air Quality. High\nnumbers mean Air is polluted. Lower the index is cleaner the air is. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

At least the virus has cleared the air we breathe and if caught by the virus, we the older people with heart problems, past lung infections like pneumonia(such as myself) and diabetics and above the 80s, will be fatal. It does not matter as long as something good comes out for future generations(and they learn a lesson from this pandemic). <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
