Work From Home: Stigma to Necessity

Image
Corona or COVID-19 virus has changed the world. It has changed the way we interact with others, and the way we work. The 2019 novel coronavirus (2019-nCoV), otherwise known as COVID-19, is an infectious disease first identified in the city of Wuhan, capital of Hubei province in China, after 41 people developed pneumonia without a clear cause. Infections have since been reported around the world. Symptoms include fever, coughing and breathing difficulties. In the world before this outbreak, people used to be proud of the travel, socializing, parties and such, but now such things are frowned upon. The reason is the invisible nature of the virus and how it acts. A person infected with it will not show the symptoms for a few days and if that person meets others the virus can still infect others. This is the reason why everyone is urging others to stay at home so that the virus doesn't spread "accidentally" by those people unaware of the virus inside their body.
