Answer:
We have been here before. Almost. A long time ago, in 1918, the Spanish Flu infected 500 million people and killed an estimated 10-50 million, devastating the global economy.
A century later, the world was supposedly making massive progress and scientists focusing on higher order problems — like blurring the boundaries between the real and virtual worlds. Armed with path-breaking tools such as gene editing, AI and big data, human beings were learning to play god, creating designer babies and disrupting death.And then, coronavirus (SARS-CoV-2), the China-born microbe that inflicts infectious respiratory illness, brings the world to its knees. The pandemic is still unravelling and it is too early to gauge its ultimate human and economic impact. Already, an unprecedented global lockdown is underway. Schools, colleges, malls, theatres and much more have been shut. Conferences and sports events such as IPL have been called off. Countries are tightening borders and suspending visas en masse, leaving airports empty, flights cancelled and many stranded in a world of globetrotters. With the world factory China as the epicentre, the global manufacturing machinery is grinding to a halt. Remote working and social distancing are the new buzzwords as workplaces struggle to carry on business.
The virus has been a great leveller, affecting people irrespective of their wealth and social status.

Coronavirus: Faced with an unprecedented challenge, how is India faring?
Every move India made is being debated threadbare in locked-down drawing rooms and overheated social media.

On Friday morning, shortly after Prime Minister Narendra Modi exhorted his countrymen to light candles and lamps as a gesture of a united fight against Covid-19, polarised reactions poured out on social media. Why is the PM focusing on a seemingly pointless ritual while he needs to be telling the nation the details of how we are fighting the pandemic, asked the sceptics. It’s extremely important to keep the morale of a nation high during trying times and this will inspire people and give them hope, countered others.
Early Action
“India did better than many countries — from screening of travellers to phased escalation of travel restrictions,” says Srinath Reddy, president, Public Health Foundation of India. India responded quickly, often ahead of many countries, and its responses were dynamic, evolving with time. Take the case of the export of personal protection equipment (PPE), including clothing and N95 masks, which India prohibited on January 31, 40 days before the World Health Organisation declared Covid-19 a pandemic. But in February, with few cases, New Delhi relaxed its grip. The nation appeared to be in a quandary whether to replenish medical gears in hospitals, pharmacies and homes, or to carry on exports as usual, supplying masks and other materials to Europe, the Middle East and the US, a growing opportunity as the factories in the virus-hit China remained shut. India also derived comfort from another fact — from the time three Wuhan-returned students in Kerala tested Covid-19 positive to the Union health ministry’s reporting of two fresh cases on March 2, there was a month-long lull. So, in February, it relaxed its export norms — first, on February 8, by removing items such as surgical masks and gloves from the banned list, and second, on February 25, allowing export of 10 items, including surgical blades and gas masks.
It was only on March 19 when the number of Covid-19 cases jumped to 150 and the importance of ventilators in containing deaths was demonstrated globally, that Udyog Bhawan sprang into action, banning export of both surgical masks and all kinds of ventilators. Hand sanitisers, however, remained a free export item till March 24, one day before the nationwide lockdown. So while in February, India slowed down in its Covid preparation due to zero fresh cases, in March it quickly shifted gears. “The government has been moving fast and taking decisions in a dynamic, fluid situation,” says Shamika Ravi, director research, Brookings India, and a former member of the Prime Minister’s Economic Advisory Council. India may have got a few things wrong but “in hindsight we got many things right. Often, we moved before most other countries did,” she adds.
ET Magazine spoke to two officials, one each from the ministry of health and the department of commerce. Both chose not to speak on record. The slew of tough measures — suspension of international fights and passenger trains, and the lockdown —were the outcome of a near consensus that the best way forward for a populous country with densely populated cities and weak healthcare infrastructure was to arrest the spread. India’s hospital beds per 1,000 persons, for example, is a mere 0.7, several notches below US (2.9), Italy (3.4) and South Korea (11.4), according to a World Bank report collating global health data of 2011-17.
Even in terms of its travel advisories, airport screenings and curbs on flights and arrivals, “India responded well,” says Kapil Kaul, CEO, CAPA. “We took time. There were initial laxity and glitches but we were ahead of the curve. Think about it. This is an unprecedented crisis which even countries like the US have not been able to grasp fully yet.” True, there were many glitches at the airport with long queues and waiting time for screening. “Between February and March, 1.5 million-plus passengers travelled to India. To do a very structured screening for so many overnight was almost impossible. It would be unfair to criticise the government,” he adds.
