The Poor community and the COVID 19


How corona affected the poverty situations of the world, is another question to be addressed and analyzed as immediately as possible or soon after the issue is totally solved. It is not just a responsibility of a local department or a ministry it is a duty and a responsibility of any world organization/s.

Compared with the other disasters natural and man-made or man-created hazards, issues(wars, terror attacks) faced now and then, the corona is different and it attacked killed human resources or disabled wounded spines of families, even for a shorter period of time until they recover from the issue.

Everything (social or financial network’s) that were directly or indirectly attached to the human resources died either fully or partially collapsed and rehabilitation or repairing will not be easy, or they might need support of another mechanism, I believe.

Every person who died due to Covid 19 had a specific role to play and the roles or the positions played or shouldered by those individuals are now vacant. How many person trained to do those specific jobs, specific roles and to full fill responsibilities, or trained to cater the needs of health of every human for instance have we lost by now?
Can those be easily replaced?

To become an expert or knowledgeable no easy, it takes time and even to gather experiences it takes time. To gain professional experience it takes time. The world lost a loads of experienced human resources due to the issue. I do not know whether the world will be able to recover.

If you analyze the values of the demands and nature of the human resources we lost due to Covid 19, it will be a little easy to understand the current poverty level or poverty situation of the world. But as we all very well know it is extremely difficult to provide a whole picture of the situation in numbers or in figures. To understand the entire poverty situation of the world must think of every facet of poverty. Situation should be analyzed in both quantitatively as well as qualitatively.

Loss of a person directly or directly affects mental health of a family. If you find a person/persons died due to corona or any other reasons, it will affect the mental health of other members of a family.

Further………..

Corona destroyed so much energy and time, manpower and money that could be allocated or distributed amongst the poor people or for the development of poor of the world.

Since about three months, some towns across world were totally closed and were not open for any trade or commercial dealings, activities. The money that the poor earned from selling the things that they have cultivated, manufactured in house, is barred or stopped. As we all know the ‘percentage of non-poor (rich) is very small. Most the humans belonged to either middle income families or poor or lower income families. They are the most affected families or the persons, I believe.

During a crisis situation like this, it is not easy to distribute the available resources evenly amongst the poor. But protecting lives of humans though they have to face other difficulties is important. And to help them maintain their mental health too is very important, needless to say. In order to raise or maintain level of confidence, mental health responsible or members of each family must provide moral support.

Understanding the current situation can be done by reading and analyzing ‘pre and post corona situation across world. And then re planning, implementing and monitoring the programs to be established should be done methodically, using the resources, human and otherwise, available.  
Moreover……….I can state that a death of a bread winner of a family is no joke and we know how it will affect a poor family. The family will lose all the income gained as well as the mental or spiritual support gained through the person died due to corona.

Post corona-trauma situations should be dealt so humanly and delicately, I believe.  The world can design mental health support programs  to cater the need of the needy.

Wish you all quick recovery and peace of mind!
