COVID 19 pandemic had an impact for 2 years on social, economic and physical life of millions of people globally. All of a sudden life came to a stand still. During this difficult times the role of researchers, biomedical experts, doctors, nurses, lab technician and STEM based professionals came into prominence.
BODY:
COVID 19's major impact was on the physical and mental health of people. The medical professionals were always considered noble, but during the pandemic doctors, nurses were considered as larger than live figures. They saved millions of live by placing their own lives at risk. The ability of doctors to deal with new and dynamic symptoms should be appreciated.
The negative impact of COVID is reduced because the Biomedical researchers were able to invent a vaccine. The vaccine helped in saving the lives and made routine life possible.The mutations were closely studied and new vaccines were accordingly developed. Similarly the life saving equipments like ventilators, Pulsemeters, oxymeters and home based testing kids were in use because of the exclusive efforts of Biomedical researchers. The importance of data collection, analysis and research is realized.
The emotional support and guidance provided by psychotherapists was very important. Their contribution made common people emotionally stable to adverse COVID 19 situation.
Despite severe lockdown the education of children were not hindered as technology is developed to a high level allowing online classes and meets.This allowed children to continue education and interact with their peers. The great work done by engineers and technicians should be appreciated.
Also with internet easy publication of news regarding various precautionary measures were posted. From radio to now a high speed internet is developed. The engineers were developed a long way from the beginning.
A few negative effects like increase in financial burden, emotional stress of doctors, loss of lives, increase screen time,lack of focus due to isolated environment also prevail. This made students to move away from the STEM based careers.
CONCLUSION:
The COVID proved that normal life cannot function without the help of science, technology and medicine. So teachers and parents should use this opportunity and create more enthusiasm to students by shaping their interest towards STEM based careers.
