The New Normal and it's striking Creation of a New chapter in our living,( what next)
By Okereke Ikechukwu.C.

 For a little over a month, life has been disrupted in ways that few of us would have imagined — and with a surprising and widespread quickness.
Technology has helped us adjust to all the changes, restrictions and challenges, but is it just a temporary blip on the radar or something that will have a more permanent impact on our lives?
Although almost everyone longs to return to a sense of normalcy, there is little doubt that at least some of the changes will have a lasting impact.
While there is an inevitable yearning to return to “business as usual,” we must also be smart and exercise caution to avoid unnecessary risks.
Technology can certainly help us during the transition and will play an important role in helping keep people safe and healthy, allowing a blend of distance learning, streaming video meetings and online shopping along with more traditional interactions.
After the flu pandemic that swept across the world a little over a century ago, once quarantines ended and restrictions were lifted, people’s lives in many ways did go back to the way they had been before.
Two big reasons for that were that people wanted to put the social isolation and restrictions behind them, of course, but also there wasn’t the technology in place to make sweeping changes to the way people went about their daily lives.
That technology certainly exists today; new technologies in automation, communication and transportation that might have gradually changed our lives are probably on the fast track today.
A big question is where do we go from here, and what will the new normal look like six weeks, six months or a year or two from now.Underneath are picture of what we guess might be the new trend,
It’s hard to predict just what long-term changes we will see as a result of the COVID-19 crisis, but you can be certain that there will be profound change.
Hopefully there will be a blend of caution with optimism, self sufficiency with cooperation and the implementation of new technologies with our recognition that freedom and respect for an individual’s dignity is important, too.
An important part of life is making adjustments and learning from our experiences and 2020 has definitely given us plenty of challengesHere, drawing on lessons from the ground, we share some ways forward that will help the world shift to a better new normal in a post-COVID world. Underneath are some of the lessons derived and the lesson learnt which will help in our post COVID sequel.
  • Grow global solidarity: the COVID-19 pandemic has made it powerfully clear that no country can isolate itself from a global emergency. As with the virus, so with climate change: the impacts do not recognise geographical borders, no country is immune.

    This calls for a collective, global effort to prioritise and improve solidarity across all countries, with a specific commitment to be inclusive of the most vulnerable. And as we strengthen global solidarity, we must also enhance solidarity within local geographies, where the needs and priorities of all citizens are listened to and acted on. And we must be prepared to work across divides, to build bridges between the rich and poor, to work through ethnic and religious differences.
     
  • Listen to science, and value key workers who apply it. The COVID-19 pandemic has brought two major revelations: first, the importance of listening to the science and being quick to respond with action accordingly; second, highlighting society’s most essential workers, namely health practitioners and other key local community leadership workers who provide us with food and other essential items on which our lives depend.

    The new normal must value science and recognise the city’s essential workers, tasked with actioning the guidance that comes from it. I pray we do it here in this country.
     
  • The path to a ‘new normal’ must be clean and green. Since the COVID-19 lockdown and the closing of polluting industries and transport networks, we have seen clear skies emerge and natural habitats be restored. The sudden and dramatic downturn in carbon-emitting activity has shown us that we can indeed cleanse and rebuild our natural environment, if we wish to do so.
     
  • The power of citizen participation: the countries that have been most successful in stemming the spread of COVID-19 have been those where leaders have made citizens instrumental in the response.
    So with all this I presume we are stepping into a new era so drop your opinions and comments on what's next for you after this pandemicdenilsonpetterson50@gmail.com

http//facebook.ikechukwuokereke.com Dr LOCKDOWN: THE NEW NIRM WHERE EXERCISE RULES AND iTS eFFECTS ARE EVIDEnT Exercise is proven to have benefits for the mind that can lower stress, reduce feelings of isolation and help ease anxiety and depression D uring   lockdown , the new rules of life can pull our mental health into a damaging spiral. While staring at the same four walls our anxiety and stress can be heightened by worries over anything and everything – jobs, money, living arrangements, the   pandemic   and those feelings are compounded by an absence of the great ways in which we usually relieve them. Those small but important releases like socialising and exercising have been limited, and the result is sometimes a hard cycle to break. Often we turn to short-term fixes like alcohol or unhealthy foods which give a brief relief but tend make us feel worse in the long term  E Even in lockdown th...
