Our Take on PM Speech
When PM speaks he must have a very good reason and backed up with heavy and accurate data and facts. Let us agree that PM's knowledge about the Pandemic is much more than our imagination. Looking at China, Italy, Iran, US & other nations despite medical intervention the disease is spreading and proving fatal too. So it is likely that nations are hiding the real severity of Pandemic which the PM knows and chose to share his concern with us.
Please do not take this address as just another one, PM has chosen words that effectively paint a grim situation but nothing short of panic which was concealed in them. This address is also caution and warning to the citizens for keeping themselves safe and healthy against a disease for which cure is not yet found.
Sunday Curfew is a social experiment which will be backed by government machinery for ensuring compliance, this experiment is necessary to prepare the citizens for such curfews of longer duration if need be. Moreover, it will auto sterilize all places like offices and lifts as the virus has a life span of 12 hours.
The advice not to overload the medical services is most apt.
As responsible citizens and to keep ourselves safe let the gravity of PM's address sink in and let us all stand to fight this adversity together.
AT THIS JUNCTURE KEEPING ONESELF HEALTHY WILL BE NO LESS THAN SERVICE TO NATION. BE ALOOF, BE Safe.
