W.H.O. Sustainable Development Goals.

Have you really thought what COVID-19 could do to the economic and societal infrastructures of the world? It’s mind-blowing. The stock markets are already panicking.

China locked down a whole district and contained its spread, and yet the rest of the world caught the virus, however mild it might be for the majority of the population.

Does this remind you of a 2011 film called Contagion?

One of the posters, featuring just Kate Winslet, has the tag line:

DON’T TALK TO ANYONE. DON’T TOUCH ANYONE.

It’s a frightening thought, isn’t it? And that is the exact point of the whole exercise. Fear spreads far more rapidly than any disease. And if the purpose is to break our societies down, it can definitely do that, in spades (Italy being a case in point).

I know it’s hard not to think about this stuff, night and day, but the key to staying healthy is to focus on love and hope. We will survive this crisis, together!
