To flatten the curve of Covid 19, quarantine in Metro Manila should be
extended or should be removed?
The world is undergoing a serious biological battle. Covid 19 is a viral disease
that is currently spreading at a tremendous rate. An antidote is still not discovered and the number of people getting infected is adding up every day. This is very alarming and frightening for all of us. Because of this, we need to prevent and take action to avoid the spread of virus. That is why quarantine periods in Metro Manila should be extended and should be enforced in all cities. I believ e extending quarantine periods in Metro Manila can help to lessen the number of cases and prevent the spread of the virus. This can serve as a big help for us and I think one of the effective ways to prevent the contagious disease. Here are the significant reasons why having Quarantine is essential in mitigating the current COVID-19 pandemic.
The first reason why quarantine is needed because it helps to reduce the outspread of the disease in our country. This method can slow down the transmission and an effective way especially for those cities that have a big population. According to the studies of the Department of Health, the number of cases decreased by 40% after implementing enhance community quarantine in Metro Manila. I believe that the quarantine period is the most effective way in preventing and protecting ourselves against the destructive disease.
Secondly, quarantine period is also a big help to hospitals by means of giving
them enough time to test and treat the patients who are infected by the virus. According to the latest report, the average reported cases is 8,299 every day. Imagine how it is hard for frontliners and nurses to treat patients almost a day, without getting rest? Based on the report of WHO, nurses treat patients more than 200 patients every day. Because of these, I think that quarantine should be implemented. The quarantine period lessen the number of cases every day, which help the nurse and frontliners to test and treat the patients and have more time to rest and spend more time for themselves. Last but not the least, quarantine period gives us the time to spend more time with our family, and bond with them. We have more time to communicate with them and enjoy the moments together. We can also have more time to ourselves, focus, and reflect on our goals. We can discover new habits, practice new skills, and improve ourselves. This can help us to grow not only to our physical but also to our mental and emotional health.
Though Quarantine protocols have a lot of benefits and advantages not only for our community but also for ourselves, some people may disagree with implementing the quarantine in Metro Manila. They would probably say quarantine is the reason why they lose their job and lose their source of income. Also, some businesses and establishments closedown. They might even argue that quarantine is too long and they already miss their friends, classmates, and co-workers. Besides, many studies show that quarantine affects the psychological and social health of many people. Lastly, some of the students may argue that online class is tiring and they can't understand clearly the lessons.
While some people may disagree, I believe that quarantine should be
implemented. If you lose your job, you can find an alternative job such as online selling, online teaching, and online tutor. You can also sell or make shop on online selling platforms such as Lazada and Shopee. If you are too bored in the house and miss your friends, you have different ways to distract yourself. You can exercise, discover a new skill, make DIY projects, and talk to your classmates and friends. If we have problems, we can open up to our family and tell them things that are distracting us. Lastly, we have a lot of ways to learn such as through google, youtube, etc. Also in an online class, students have given enough time to think and do the assignments and projects. Problems regarding quarantine can be solved through many ways and alternative solutions.
It is clear that quarantine protocols can help us a lot and has a lot of benefits and advantages. Quarantine protocols can help to lessen the transmission of the virus and an effective way to prevent and protect ourselves against the virus. Also, the quarantine can help to give enough time to health workers to treat patients and have rest. In addition, the quarantine protocol gives us time to grow and spend precious moments with our family. Though some people may disagree with it, I personally believe that there is always a way to solve these problems. Just like for those people who lost their job, they can find another job such as online selling. If you are too bored in the house, you can find a new hobby and discover new skills to distract yourself. Not only you can distract yourself, but also you will learn a lot and practice your skills. We can talk to our loved ones if we have problems and open up to them. And last, though the online class is not effective for some students, they can learn in different ways such as learning through youtube, google, etc. I believe, there is no reason why quarantine should be removed. Looking at the benefits and advantages , quarantine protocols help us a lot and can help our country to be free in coronavirus.
