Question

Paragraph on life after lockdown

Answer 1

A lockdown is a requirement for people to stay where they are, usually due to specific risks to themselves or to others if they can move freely. The term "stay-at-home" or "shelter-in-place" is often used for lockdowns that affect an area, rather than specific locations

Answer 2

Answer:

hope it will help

Explanation:

hat will social life be like once the extended lockdown ends? Will we hug our friends again, shake strangers’ hands? How many times a day will we feel compelled to wash our hands, for 20 seconds each time of course? How will we treat those who commit the crime of coughing or sneezing in public spaces? If you have a fever, should you automatically self-quarantine so as not to be caught out by a thermal scanner? Perhaps we should be prepared for at least an initial period of paranoia, frayed tempers, and the zealous policing of public behaviour.

“There is frustration with other people not following norms of social distancing,” says Kanika K. Ahuja, associate professor in the department of psychology at the Lady Shri Ram College for Women in Delhi. She recently published a study titled, ‘Probing Pandemic Pandemonium: A Real-Time Study of COVID-19 Stress, Coping and Psychological Consequences in India’, including responses from 1,009 people across 10 states which showed that people were “physical distancing even within homes”. Touch, Ahuja says, “releases endorphins. It has a strong healing effect.” She encourages people to “hold hands, hug, be physically intimate”, but “only in your own homes”. Will an increased wariness over public displays of friendship and solidarity affect the way we relate and respond to people outside our closest circles of relatives and friends? Ritu Priya Mehrotra, professor at Delhi’s Jawaharlal Nehru University’s Centre for Social Medicine and Community Health, rejects ‘social distancing’, the buzz phrase of the new normal, as both negative and inaccurate. “What we want,” she says, “is physical distancing but social bonding.” The latter will take some work, a mass rebuilding of confidence. A mental health helpline in Maharashtra, Mpower 1on1, receives over 400 calls each day. Janvi Sutaria, a clinical and health psycho­logist, notes that callers, terrified of COVID-19, often feel better “just listening to the words ‘you are not alone’.”
