After 1 year of the pandemic, we are still in the same deep trouble with COVID-19
I wrote this piece last year, 24th of April precisely. Today, after one year and two months, the death toll in Bangladesh hit its highest.
From tomorrow Ramadan month is starting here in Bangladesh. People won’t go to offices, schools would stay shut, roads will be empty after 6 in the afternoon. Not because the holy month of Muslims is gonna start, but because there is a virus ramping on the world. A situation which no movies had ever wondered about will prevail, no superheroes were sent to protect humans and no brilliant mind is on the mission to save the world. COVID-19, popularly known as Corona Virus, started its spreading last December originating from China and then embracing the whole world by each day under its undiscriminating umbrella. One virus, similar to those cringy slogans of one earth-one world-united us and what not, has put each and every cast, creed, race, and color of human existence at stake.
