Adaptation and Social Distancing in Covid-19 Society
Despite individual rights, most people are social animals and are always prepared to change and adapt to new situations.
The Coronavirus-Covid19 Pandemic has presented one of the most challenging processes of adaptation that we have faced in recent history.
Trust and Fear
Rapid change requires quick and precise thinking, and a lot of trust from the public. But that trust only goes so far, fear and confusion has always got its ugly boot half way through the door.
World Health Organization Figures
In July 2020, according to the World Health Organisation figures , there are 10,533,779 cases of infected people on the planet. Daily new infections are rising again, and we see spikes and troughs on a daily basis, in every country.
Changes in social behaviour are imperative to our health and recovery as a society. If politicians politicize a world health pandemic of Coronavirus, while we are still trying to understand it, then they will rapidly lose the tentative trust of the public. People will follow their own opinions, and develop deaf ears to the media and politicians.
