Countries around the world imposed the unprecedented lockdown method trying to stop the spread of still unknown virus. Big cities stopped suddenly and all the people locked to their homes for months fearing the disease may catch them. One country, Sweden tried different approach. With almost the same results as the lockdown method, without economic consequences only time can tell if Sweden is successful.
The first thing people noticed during lockdown especially in big metropolis are the much cleaner air and clearer skies. The streets have very little waste and water in the drainages are clearer. City dwellers suddenly experienced the calm and sounds of rural living.
Because of the hype fear going on, people now value more their family and friends and not just taking them for granted. Families spend more time to each other and their relationship became stronger. Parents have time to play with their kids and they are very much happy.
Because the virus discriminate no one, the money of the rich can't even buy a hair cut for a while. The bosses are now like their workers, staying at home and restricted.
Governments are drafting a new norm guidelines before opening up again the economy but this only brings more burden to the people for the sake of "safety" which obviously base on fear.
Lastly, this pandemic brings the whole world into an unprecedented cooperation to end this pandemic once and for all.
Thanks for dropping by, I made this post while I'm in a long queue to pay my bills. All the pictures were taken during this.
