A nocturnal sun

❤ Today after months of me leaving my previous job, here I am, thoughtless, depressed, aimless, keep trying myself to refrain from others. I don't know how but the behavior of people towards me changing drastically. Even the kins of mine avoid talking me. The worst part was that i had left my job three days earlier to my wedding. I had tons of thoughts for my wife and from my marriage. But as far as i can see from today for the last few months is only void. I can recall the older me ten years ago when my mother was alive, i lost her four years ago, i had always thought i am so important to everyone. I would wonder to provide lavish lifestyle to my family. A kind of utopia always revolved in mind always that nothing in this world against me. But the gravity of unfortune is profound for me that even the smallest thought of yielding anything will revert against me. I have started doubting myself that i will not able to do anything for me and my family. My father has got retired three years ago, only on the basis of his sons, but what is happening right now is that i am depressed sleeping all day, trying myself in all the possible area of employment form where i can generate money. But all the attempts are foiling, so am i. My brother is trying is level hard to fight with dues, EMIs and the all the financial labilities.

                       COVID-19 Solidarity Response Fund

 DONATE NOW

The world is facing an unprecedented challenge with communities and economies everywhere affected by the growing COVID-19 pandemic. The world is coming together to combat the COVID-19 pandemic bringing governments, organizations from across industries and sectors and individuals together to help respond to this global outbreak. The outpouring of global solidarity and support sparked by this shared challenge has been phenomenal.

The World Health Organization (WHO) is leading and coordinating the global effort, supporting countries to prevent, detect, and respond to the pandemic.

The need for supplies is greater than ever. From donating goods and money to volunteering, there are many ways to contribute Away from the stockpiling hordes, food bank workers are toiling tirelessly to make sure that no one goes hungry during the coronavirus pandemic.

Donations received will go towards funding these activities

•   Putting in place activities to Track and understand the spread of the virus;
•   Ensuring patients get the care they need.
•   Buying and ship essential supplies such as masks, gloves and protective wear for frontline     workers.
•   Producing evidence based guidelines and advice, and make sure health workers and  responders get the information and training to detect and treat affected patients.
•   Producing guidance for the general public and for particular groups on measures to take to  prevent the spread and prevent themselves and others.
•  Accelerating efforts to develop vaccines, tests and treatments.                                 

         How  food banks are helpful during the coronavirus outbreak
  
“It’s really concerning,” says Emma Revie, the chief executive of the Trussell Trust, the UK’s largest network of food banks. “We are anticipating a significant increase in users as more people are unable to work.”

The trust will continue to support communities during the outbreak. “We will stay open,” she says. “Food banks are an essential community service.” But she says the government needs to do more. “Our benefit system should be a life raft in times of crisis.”

How can you best support your local food bank? If you are not in an at-risk group and have time on your hands, volunteer. More than 30% of the trust’s project managers are 65 or older, which makes them more vulnerable to coronavirus. “We are definitely in need of additional volunteers,” RAVIsays. “One of our biggest threats is people becoming unwell and unable to volunteer.” You can sign up to volunteer here.

Keep donating, too: your donation is needed now more than ever. (Your local food bank may not be in the trust’s network.) “Check with your local food bank to see what they are in need of,” says RAVI. “It will vary from day to day.”

If you are self-isolating, make a financial donation online instead – the food writer Jack Monroe has started a GoFundMe for the trust, or you can donate directly. Revie says they are working with supermarkets to protect the supply to their food banks.

She emphasises that, so far, the public has stepped up. “I want to say thank you,” she says. “People are continuing to donate food and money. The fact that people are still considering how to support their local food banks during this time is a credit to the British public.”

Everyone can now support directly the response coordinated by WHO. People and organizations who want to help fight the pandemic and support WHO and partners can now donate through the COVID-Solidarity Response Fund for WHO at www.COVID19ResponseFund.org.

Coronavirus sway: What's costly, what's less expensive in India?

Coronavirus sway: What's costly, what's less expensive in India?

The effect of coronavirus in the economy has been felt internationally. China, the epicentre of the virus is likewise a significant provider of raw materials and components. The closing of processing plants and creation in China has unleashed ruin in the production network, prompting a sharp increment in the costs of specific things, for example, cell phones and appliances. In any case, as frenzy spreads over the globe, ventures, for example, aviation have endured a shot, prompting a drop in airfare.

Here's a look at what has become expensive and what has become cheaper due to coronavirus:

Items that have become expensive

1. Gold

Gold has been the biggest gainer since the outbreak of coronavirus. The retail price of pure gold in Delhi has appreciated by over 12 per cent since January 1. The price of gold has sky-rocketed as investors are opting for safe haven assets such as the yellow metal. Meanwhile, global stock markets are taking a beating amid the outbreak.

2. Masks and sanitisers

Demand for masks and sanitisers that provide the first level of defence against COVID-19 have shot up. In Noida, masks are being sold at a premium of over 300 per cent. A basic surgical mask that is priced at Rs 10 each is being sold for Rs 40, while some N-95 masks, originally priced Rs 150, are being sold at up to Rs 500. Demand for sanitisers has also shot up. The item is out of stock at some pharmacies. On Flipkart, one of the seller listed a 30ml bottle of sanitiser for Rs 999 which is generally sold for close to Rs 35.

3. Medicines

The prices of some medicine have increased post the Coronavirus outbreak. Prices of Paracetamol that is commonly used as an analgesic have gone up by 40 per cent. As per a CRISIL report, India imports 69% of its total pharma bulk drugs intermediates from China. The price of Penicillin G, a key raw material used in antibiotics has also soared by 58 per cent.

4. Phones

Xiaomi has increased the price of its popular phone Note 8. The price of the 8GB+64 GB variant of the Xiaomi Note 8 has been hiked by Rs 500. The phone will now be available at Rs 10,499 instead of the earlier price of Rs 9,999.

"The extended shutdown in China is likely to have an impact on our supply chain and, there is a risk of impact on overall quantum of component supplies. While we are working to explore alternative supply channels for components and raw materials, the immediate impact is that the short supply might cause some negative pressure on prices of these components. This has led to the increase in the price of the product temporarily," a Xiaomi spokesperson told Gadgets 360. Xiaomi has also cancelled all on-ground launch events planned in the month of March 2020.

5. Consumer durables

Consumer durable products such as air conditioners, refrigerators, microwaves and washing machines are set to be expensive by as much as 3-5 per cent due to coronavirus. As per a CRISIL report the consumer durables sector has high dependency on Chinese imports. "India imports 45 per cent completely built units of consumer durables from China. In addition, India also imports bulk of consumer durables components from it... Players have already stocked inventory, so impact will be felt only towards the end of Q4 FY20. Product prices could rise next month," the report said.

Items that have turned cheaper

1. Petrol/Diesel

Global oil prices have been on a downward trend since the coronavirus outbreak. Industry demand in China, world's largest importer of oil, has been low. The low price trend has been aggrandised with Saudi Arabia's price war against Russia. The price of crude oil dropped to $31.02 on March 9. Petrol prices have declined Rs 4.55 per litre and diesel Rs 4.7 per litre in Delhi since January 1.

2. Airfares

Airfares have been reduced by aviation companies due to a 30 per cent drop in bookings to virus affected destinations. "Southeast Asia and Italy being one of the most preferred destinations for Indians, we can anticipate a drop of about 20-25 percent in terms of future bookings, though it is too early to predict any drastic impact. They are wary of making fresh bookings to the affected locations and airfares to these destinations have dropped by 20-30 percent," Sabina Chopra, Co-Founder, Yatra.com said in a statement.

3. Meat/seafood

The demand for non-vegetarian items such as meat and seafood has also tanked amid the coronavirus scare. However, FSSAI has said that the virus doesn't spread through food. The food body has issued a statement saying: "Experience with SARS and MERS suggest that people are not infected with the virus through food. So, it is unlikely the virus is passed on through food and there is no evidence yet of this happening with COVID-19 (coronavirus) to date". The retail price of chicken has fallen to Rs 150 per kg from Rs 180-200.  According to the Minister of State Sanjeev Kumar Balyan, the wholesale prices of chicken had come down by 70 per cent.

4. Tea

Following the COVID-19 outbreak, Iran and China has stopped importing tea. As a result, prices of tea have plunged by 40 per cent to Rs 120-130 from Rs 200 a year before, as per a report published in The Economic Times. Additionally, last year's unsold stock of over 50 million kilograms has been carried forward to the present year, adding to the woes of the tea industry.

CORONAVIRUS-STAYING HOME!

CORONAVIRUS-STAYING HOME!

It seems the lockdown had an unintended benefit.However we are seeing destruction everywhere but Corona comes with certain benefits to the nature.

The coronavirus is upending everything from aviation to the economy — and it's also having a big impact on the environment.

 Improvements in air quality- 

Satellite images released by NASA and the European Space Agency show a dramatic reduction in nitrogen dioxide emissions -- those released by vehicles, power plants and industrial facilities -- in major Chinese cities between January and February. The visible cloud of toxic gas hanging over industrial powerhouses almost disappeared.

As the world's biggest polluter, China contributes 30% of the world's CO2 emissions annually, so the impact of this kind of drop is huge, even over a short period. 

Many other regions are also observing significant environmental benefits as a consequence of the Coronavirus outbreak.

Researchers in New York registered a 50 per cent decline in carbon monoxide levels, which is caused due to car emissions. The researchers at Columbia University also established that the traffic levels in the city have come down by around 35 per cent as compared to the data a year ago.

Greenhouse gas emissions- 

Slowing economic activity also drives down emissions — if only temporarily. As countries order the closedown of schools, shops and factories, emissions are expected to fall.

 India, the world's third largest energy consumer, has enough petrol, diesel and cooking gas (LPG) in stocks to last way beyond the three-week nationwide lockdown as all plants and supply locations are fully operational. With most cars and two-wheelers going off the road, petrol demand has fallen by 8 per cent in March while diesel demand has been down 16 per cent.

There are few another thing which we always wishing for-

We have slept  few extra hours without any worries and busy schedules.

We are spending quality time with family. 

We had developed a habit of keeping a check on the latest news and staying updated. 

We have become self conscious about cleanliness, hygiene and moving toward healthy practices.

We have realise that health is the real wealth because of this lock down.

The honking noises have been replaced with birds chirping, trees waving and leaves rattling.

We have realise our social responsibilities.

We had gathered childhood memories.
