Understanding corona -1

-

This blog is based on my telephonic conversation with Mr. Gaje Singh, a science scholar in prestigious The Indian Institute of India, Ropar (Punjab). (Almost ten days old interaction)
Me: Hello, brother! What’s up?
Mr. Singh: Alright! How about you?
Me: I’m fine. How is research going on?
Mr. Singh: Not well, you know there is an outbreak of Corona virus in India, so educational institutes are closed till March, 31st.
Me: Yes, it’s a disastrous situation for the entire world. This virus (COVID-19) spread has taken thousands of lives and everyone is at the stake.  How does this deadly virus spread?
Mr. Singh: Allow me a few minutes. Actually, this virus is an infectious one. It spread exponentially means it builds a chain of infection through droplets of saliva or discharge from the nose when an infected person coughs or sneezes. It’s really a dangerous virus as an infected person to it can infect an average 2.7 people.  
Me: Really fatal! Human race is going to perish.
Mr. Singh: Not so. The people having strong immunity can recover even without a special treatment, after virus infection. Actually, person who has a past medical history with critical medical problems like cardiovascular disease, diabetes, chronic respiratory disease is more likely to develop serious illness. We have to stay alert not panic.
Me: I heard, it’s a bio-weapon ceated by Chine to attack on the world. Is it so?
Mr. Singh (Laughs): It’s just a rumor. In fact, recently a paper published in Science Medicine Journal gave a clean chit to Chine on the blame of making this virus in laboratory or engineered otherwise.
Me: Fir kya bla hai ye (What the hell is that)?
Mr. Singh: This virus is with new genetic implications originated through natural processes as scientists discovered. They observed that virus came from bats after complete development (but genome sequences do not match 100%).  
Me: Leave all. How can we protect ourselves? Continue………….

रास्ते बहुत नापे हैं मगर मंज़िल अनजानी-सी है लफ़ाजी मुहब्बत की दरिया में क़श्ती अपनी बेगानी-सी है तुफ़ान से बेख़ौफ नाचती  पर सहमी-सी भंवर से क्यों है ? डूब जायेगी या तर जायेगी मुद्दतों की यही कहानी-सी है  चप्पु उल्टे पडें या सीधे इतना हिसाब कहां है अभी बेहोशी में सफर तय करना ऐसी आदत कुछ पुरानी-सी है लाश तो ठिकाने लग जानी है कुछ संभलता हूं जाग कर कहीं तड़फता है कचोटता है चित्त भटकती मधुमक्खी दिवानी-सी है बार-बार सुनाई कहानी-सी है।                              -रामफल
