Corona Virus Disease is gripping the whole world and it has wreaked havoc. The chaos that was created by the COVID has ruined many countries and businesses around the world. As of now, as there is no vaccine or proper medications for corona virus disease, social distancing is the only way to protect ourselves. Moreover, the lockdown in the country has put the whole economy on the back foot. Many people have lost their jobs and livelihood. Most migrant workers in the country have returned to their home state with nothing but their families. The whole economic condition looks bleak. The jobs are at all-time low. Money with the public is very less. In addition to all these issues, the fear of contracting COVID-19 has created a mass phobia and panic in the minds of the people.
In this extreme situation, everybody is undergoing a lot of stress. There is a huge uncertainty about the life and how we are going to survive once the lockdown gets over. The number of covid cases in Tamil Nadu is very high and it ranks second in the overall affected cases. Naturally, this gloomy environment has created a dim outlook at the world. This makes everyone anxious about the life during and after corona virus disease. Even if by miracle, a vaccine or medicine is found for the disease and if the number of cases reduce drastically, it will still be an uphill task for the people who have suffered severe financial setbacks.
