Speech on The New Normal
INTRODUCTION
Respected Principal Sir/Madam, teachers and dear fellow students. Before this beautiful day I have been given a lucky chance to address you all. In my full effort and power I intend to say a few words regarding my topic- “The New Normal”.
BODY
The world is going through tough times, things are at halt and lives are at stake. A deadly virus has struck the entire globe, it has made the world fall to its knees. Governments are unable to contain the spread of it; the death is in the air. Beginning at year 2020 the world witnessed a pandemic named Coronavirus (Covid-19). Originated at Wuhan, china, it quickly spread to the rest of the world making people sick first and the eventual death in majority of cases. This virus has adapted to its hosts and changed in variants even powerful and more contagious than when it started. Death toll reached in lakhs, seeing the health system collapse under the mulling pressure, people’s hope began to crumble. The whole pandemic took the form of a deadly chase, times became desperate, and everyone had to survive somehow.
Scientists didn’t know the cure and were unable to find a vaccine. Time was of crucial importance, the world couldn’t afford the loss of even a single minute because people were contacting this virus and were dying in massive numbers. Graveyards became full; government had to arrange for the dead to be laid in peace. This whole scenario was nothing the world had ever seen before on such a massive scale. Death was dancing at the doors, grief grew million fold, and the end was near. Time passed and scientists were able to formulate some vaccines, they quickly spread the supplies and people started to take vaccinations. Eventually as the horror of virus subsided, when the rate of infection and death began going down, in those crucial moments the world began administering vaccines on a large scale. There were many difficulties faced in the process of administering vaccinations, such as lack of supply, rumors etc. Especially the rumors about vaccine being unsafe began spiraling around, at beginning people were reluctant to take them but at last good happened and people took vaccines. Now rates of infection and death go up and down in intervals depending upon the new variant and precautionary measure system of a country, but we have been through worse and we will make sure we never go there ever again.
CONCLUSION
Now with people being vaccinated, wearing masks is necessary in public places. What this measure does is really good, but some people are complaining about the advantages and disadvantages of wearing a mask. What I think is wearing a mask is a good thing and it should be done fully to protect ourselves and the people around us and also their families because you see everybody is connected nowadays. So if one catches it so does the others. This is the new normal for the world until we find a cure for this disease, a new normal, where everybody must follow the rules and regulations for our world to be a safe place. At last I would like to suggest that we the people of India must follow the government laid rules for our own good and the good of our families. Thank you for being such a patient crowd.
