Who is responsible for coronavirus ?





The novel Coronavirus (COVID-19) is an infectious disease that affects the respiratory system of a person. It causes dry cough, high fever and in acute cases difficulty in breathing. Now, we all are aware of these things. World Health Organization (WHO) and many other health organizations have been spreading awareness about this novel disease. Hence, I won’t be talking about the disease and symptoms any further.



The main motive behind this article about Coronavirus is, that it might be time to introspect and answer the burning question, Did humans spread Coronavirus? Or Are we Coronavirus?



Now many of you may wonder how humans can be Coronavirus. Although, many of you might agree with my first question that did humans spread this deadly virus. Before I further dig into this, I want to specify that this article is not related to any medical hypothesis but, it has a humane aspect to it. You may or may not agree with my point of view and that’s absolutely fine with me.

When I say that we are Coronavirus, I mean to say itmetaphorically. We might not be COVID-19 but we are not less.





BUT HOW ?



I have several points to prove that we humans are as deadly and brutal as the novel virus.

1. We mercilessly kill animals for our taste. It’s because of us many species got extinct. It’s because of us animals continue getting slaughtered in the slaughter houses all across the globe. We didn’t understand their pain and suffering and Coronavirus also, keeps brutally murdering humans without listening to our screams and without understanding our pain and suffering.













2. We mercilessly cut down trees, burn forests and chop down hills and mountains in the name of Industrial development. No doubt, that we have built roads and tunnelsQ We have built factories and manufacturing houses. We cleared the land for agriculture and for resorts but while building lavish hotels and cozy apartments we forgot to build or rather re construct our ozone layer. We forgot that our actions are having a disastrous reaction. Our hunger for industrial development brought floods famines in different parts of the world because of which many people lost their lives all across the globe. But we kept our eyes shut.

Coronavirus too is sweeping off lives from the face of this planet. Rapidly. Swiftly. Sure, it has brought families closer to each other by forcing them into lockdown. It has slashed down the crime rate and has purified the air. But at what cost? We can pacify ourselves by looking at the bright side of this disastrous situation but we can’t escape the fact that we and the novel coronavirus are not very different from one another.













3. Another point that proves that we are coronavirus is the harsh, disgusting and a heinous reality is of rape and violence. There hardly goes a day by when I don’t read about such demonic acts. The newspapers and the news channels scream about it but do we listen? No. We let these demons roam around freely and we choose to shut our eyes pretending they don’t exist. People convicted of such acts are no less than coronavirus. It too attacks little children. It too is blind towards caste and religion. It too knows how to molest, how to be violent and how to kill!
