| Third Wave Of Covid-19 |
Although many diseases have occurred in the past and large-scale wars have taken place, it has never happened that the whole world has been affected by it, but now it is. There is no city, country, region, or continent in the world where the pandemic has not taken hold except the continent of Antarctica, where temperatures are negative and snow-covered all year round, making it impossible for the virus to thrive. There are also a number of theories regarding the growth of. According to some experts and scientists, the epidemic broke out on January 7, 2020, from the animal market in the Chinese city of Wuhan, while according to another recent study; India is being called the birthplace of the epidemic. 147,730,985 people from all over the world have been affected by this epidemic, out of which 3,122,431 people have died while 124,570,423 people have returned to life after defeating this epidemic. The outbreak was diagnosed on February 26, 2020. Two severe waves of the epidemic have passed in the country, while the recent third wave is being described as more deadly than ever. At present, the number of Corona victims in Pakistan is 795,627 out of which 17,117 have died and 689,812 have recovered.
According to the above data, the death rate is 2% while the recovery rate is 98% which is estimated. The death toll from the Corona epidemic in Pakistan has been significantly lower than in other countries, but unfortunately, the recent third wave has risen to alarming levels due to public negligence, the effects of which are also being felt. The wave has affected havoc in Punjab and Khyber Pakhtunkhwa. In many cities of Punjab, the rate of corona cases has increased from 15 to 20 percent which is very worrying. About 90% of the country's oxygen production is used in hospitals. According to the Federal Minister of Information, if this situation continues, a complete lockdown can be carried out in the next two weeks. The real reason for this complicated situation is the non-compliance of government SOPs by the people. In this extremely complex and delicate situation, the public attitude is disappointing. Despite repeated warnings from the government, the people are acting irresponsibly. There has been no reduction in the hustle and bustle of hotels and markets, and no one is willing to wear a mask. Due to repeated attempts and failures by law enforcement agencies, the Prime Minister has decided to call in the army. Pak Army in collaboration with the Civil. To ensure implementation of SOPs.

Now call it rebellious nature or illiterate ignorance is not ready to act easily unless our nation is hurt by time or someone stands on its head for a stick. Although people seek refuge in the Lord from the deadly Corona, they seem to be bridging social distances, unwilling to reduce social interaction, and unwilling to avoid crowd gatherings. Countries like Pakistan, where Muslims are more religious, are not ready to listen to the warnings of the scholars and the precautionary measures of the hadiths of the Prophet (SAW) regarding epidemic diseases.
A section of the people denies the existence of this epidemic by calling it a Western conspiracy. Now, who can explain to them that the same epidemic has engulfed important Islamic countries like Saudi Arabia and Iran and their governments are also there to protect the people? Are taking security measures. We have the example of our neighbor India where Corona has wreaked such havoc that neither oxygen nor beds are available in hospitals nor the death rate is declining. There is a shortage of space in cemeteries and crematoriums where according to Hindu rites one pyre cannot be burnt for the next 48 hours and the other cannot be burnt for 24 hours now there are black smoke and burning flames touching the atmosphere without any break. Are there, too, public indifference has given rise to such a painful national tragedy. Now, as a nation, we also need to take the nails of consciousness. There may be more violations of SOPs in connection with Eid shopping and if that happens then we may face a situation like India. In this regard, the media should run an effective publicity campaign while the government must take all possible steps, including a complete lockdown.
To save tomorrow by sacrificing today
