ಕೊರೋನಾ ವೈರಸ್‌ ಹೇಗೆ ಹರಡುತ್ತದೆ? ಇದರ ಲಕ್ಷಣಗಳೇನು?

ಏನದು, ಕೊರೋನಾ ರೋಗ ? ಕೋವಿಡ್‌ 19 ಅಂದರೆ, ಕೋ ಅಂದರೆ ಕೊರೋನಾ, ವಿ ಎಂದರೆ ವೈರಸ್‌, ಡಿ ಅಂದರೆ ಡಿಸೀಸ್‌ ಅಥವಾ ರೋಗ. 19 ಅಂದರೆ ಇಸವಿ. 2019ನಲ್ಲಿ ಚೀನಾದಲ್ಲಿ ಇದು ಶುರುವಾದ ಕಾರಣ ಇದರಲ್ಲಿ ಇಸವಿಯೂ ಸೇರಿದೆ.

ಇಡೀ ಭೂಮಿಯನ್ನೇ ಅಲ್ಲೋಲ ಕಲ್ಲೋಲ ಮಾಡಿದ ಈ ರೋಗದ ಭೀಕರತೆ ಅಷ್ಟೊಂದಿದೆಯಾ ಅನ್ನುವ ಪ್ರಶ್ನೆಗೆ ಉತ್ತರ ಹೀಗಿದೆ.

ಈ ರೋಗ ಮೊದಲು ಚೀನಾದಲ್ಲಿ ಆರಂಭವಾದಾಗ ಮೊದ ಮೊದಲು ಅಷ್ಟೊಂದು ತೀವ್ರವಾಗಿ ಯಾರೂ ಚಿಂತಿಸಲಿಲ್ಲ. ಆದರೆ ಕೊನೆ ಕೊನೆಗೆ ಚಿಂತಿಸುತ್ತಲೇ ಹೋರಾಡಬೇಕಾದ ಪರಿಸ್ಥಿತಿ ಬಂದೊದಗಿತು. ಪ್ರಯಾಣ, ಸಂಪರ್ಕ, ಸಹವಾಸದಿಂದ ಇದು ಸಾಂಕ್ರಾಮಿಕವಾಗಿ ಹಬ್ಬಿತು, ಲಂಕಾದಹನದಂತೆ.

ಹೀಗಾಗಿ ಅಸಡ್ಡೆ ಅಥವಾ ನಿಧಾನ ಗತಿಯಲ್ಲಿ ಈ ಕೋವಿಡ್‌ 19 ಬಗ್ಗೆ ಕ್ರಮ ಕೈಗೊಳ್ಳೋಣ. ಅವಸರ ಬೇಡ ಎಂಬ ನಿರ್ಣಯ ತಪ್ಪು. ಇದು ಅತಿ ಬೇಗನೆ ಹರಡುವ ಸಾಂಕ್ರಾಮಿಕ ರೋಗವೆಂದು ವಿಶ್ವ ಆರೋಗ್ಯ ಸಂಸ್ಥೆಯೇ ಹೇಳಿರುವ ಕಾರಣ ಕ್ಷಿಪ್ರ ಚಿಕಿತ್ಸೆ ಅತ್ಯಗತ್ಯ.

ಕೆನಡಾ ಪ್ರಧಾನಿ ಪತ್ನಿಯನ್ನೂ ಬಿಡದ ಕೊರೋನಾ ವೈರಸ್ ಸೋಂಕು!

ಇದರ ಲಕ್ಷಣಗಳೇನು?

- ಕೆಲವರಿಗೆ ಕೆಮ್ಮು, ನೆಗಡಿ.

- ಹಲವರಿಗೆ ಜ್ವರ, ಮೈ ಕೈ ನೋವು.

- ಗಂಟಲು ಕೆರೆತ.

- ವಾಂತಿ, ವಾಕರಿಕೆ.

- ಕೊನೆಗೆ ಉಸಿರಾಡಲು ಕಷ್ಟವಾಗೋದು.

ಇಷ್ಟಾದರೂ ಈ ಎಲ್ಲ ಲಕ್ಷಣಗಳು ಮಾತ್ರ ಕೊರೋನಾ ಸೂಚಕವೇ ಅಂದರೆ ಅಲ್ಲ.

ಲಕ್ಷಣಗಳು ಕಂಡರೆ ಏನು ಮಾಡಬೇಕು?

ನೀವುಗಳು ನಿಮ್ಮ ಕುಟುಂಬ ವೈದ್ಯರನ್ನು ಕೂಡಲೇ ಸಂಪರ್ಕಿಸಿ. ಅವರು ಖಾಯಿಲೆ ಲಕ್ಷಣ, ಪರೀಕ್ಷೆ ಇತ್ಯಾದಿಗಳ ಆಧಾರದಿಂದ ನಿಭಾಯಿಸುತ್ತಾರೆ.

ಕೆಮ್ಮು, ನೆಗಡಿ, ಜ್ವರ ಇತ್ಯಾದಿಗಳು ಕಂಡುಬಂದಾಗ ಕಂಡಲ್ಲಿ ಕಂಡಲ್ಲಿ ಸೀನುವುದಾಗಲೀ, ಕೆಮ್ಮುವುದಾಗಲೀ, ಉಗುಳುವುದಾಗಲೀ ಮಾಡಬಾರದು. ಕರವಸ್ತ್ರ ಅಥವಾ ಟಿಶ್ಯೂ ಪೇಪರ್‌ ಹಿಡಿದುಕೊಂಡು ಕೆಮ್ಮುವುದು, ಸೀನುವುದರಿಂದ ಇನ್ನೊಬ್ಬರಿಗೆ ರೋಗ ಹರಡದಂತೆ ತಡೆಯಬಹುದು. ಮನೆ ಮಂದಿಯನ್ನು ದೂರವಿಟ್ಟು ನಿಮ್ಮವರನ್ನು ರಕ್ಷಿಸಿ.

ಈ ಟಿಪ್ಸ್ ಪಾಲಿಸಿದ್ರೆ ಕೊರೋನಾ ಸೋಂಕು ಮಕ್ಕಳನ್ನು ತಾಕದು!

ರಕ್ತ, ಮಲ, ಮೂತ್ರ ಇತ್ಯಾದಿಗಳಿಂದ ಈ ರೋಗ ಅಷ್ಟೊಂದು ಪ್ರಬಲವಾಗಿ ಹರಡುವುದಿಲ್ಲ. ಹಾಗಾಗಿ ಈ ಖಾಯಿಲೆ ಕಂಡ ವ್ಯಕ್ತಿಗಳನ್ನು ಪ್ರತ್ಯೇಕವಾಗಿರಿಸಿ ಚಿಕಿತ್ಸೆ ನೀಡಿದಲ್ಲಿ ನಾವು ಗೆದ್ದ ಹಾಗೆ.

ಮಾಲ್‌ಗಳು, ಮಾರ್ಕೆಟ್‌ಗಳು, ಜನ ನಿಬಿಡ ಸ್ಥಳಗಳು, ಸಿನಿಮಾ ಮಂದಿರ ಇತ್ಯಾದಿಗಳನ್ನು ಸದ್ಯದ ಸ್ಥಿತಿಯಲ್ಲಿ ದೂರವಿಡಿ. ನೀವು ಕೆಲಸ ಮಾಡುವ ಜಾಗದಲ್ಲಿ ಎಚ್ಚರವಾಗಿದ್ದುಕೊಂಡು ಪ್ರತಿ 2-3 ದಿನಗಳಿಗೊಮ್ಮೆ ಗೋಷ್ಠಿ ನಡೆಸಿ ಯಾರಾದರೂ ರೋಗದ ಲಕ್ಷಣ ಉಳ್ಳವರಿದ್ದರೆ ಅವರನ್ನು ಪ್ರತ್ಯೇಕಿಸಿ ಅನಗತ್ಯವಾಗಿ ಮಾಸ್ಕ್‌ ಧರಿಸುವುದಕ್ಕಿಂತ ಖಾಲೆ ಶಂಕಿತರು ಧರಿಸುವುದು ಅತ್ಯುತ್ತಮ. ಮನೆಯೊಳಗೆ ಇರುವ ಮಗು, ತಾಯಿ ಆಗಾಗ ಕೈ-ಮುಖ ತೊಳೆಯುವುದು, ಮಗುವಿನ ಮುಖಕ್ಕೆ ಮಾಸ್ಕ್‌ ಹಾಕುವುದು ಸರಿಯಲ್ಲ. ಅದು ಗಾಳಿಯಿಂದ ಹರಡುವುದಾದರೂ ಕಫ, ಸೀನು ಇವುಗಳ ಸಿಂಚನದಿಂದ ಆ ವೈರಸ್‌ ನಮ್ಮ ದೇಹವನ್ನು ಶ್ವಾಸನಾಳದ ಮೂಲಕ ಮುಖಾಂತರ ಸೇರುತ್ತದೆ. ಹಾಗಾಗಿ ಆಗಾಗ ಬಿಸಿ ನೀರು ಸ್ವಲ್ಪ ಸ್ವಲ್ಪ ಕುಡಿಯುತ್ತಿದ್ದು, ತನ್ಮೂಲಕ ಅಪ್ಪಿತಪ್ಪಿ ನಮ್ಮ ಗಂಟಲನ್ನು ಜೀವಾಣು ಪ್ರವೇಶಿಸಿದ್ದರೂ ನೀರು ಕುಡಿಯುವುದರಿಂದ ಆಮ್ಲ ಮಾಧ್ಯಮದ ಜಠರ ಪ್ರವೇಶಿಸಿ ಅಲ್ಲಿಯೇ ಸಾಯುತ್ತದೆ. ಹಾಗಾಗಿ ಗಂಟಲು ಒದ್ದೆಯಾಗಿರಲಿ.

ನೀವು ಜನರೊಂದಿಗೆ ಬೆರೆಯುವ ವ್ಯವಹರಿಸುವ ನಿರಂತರವಾಗಿ ಇನ್ನೊಬ್ಬರ ಸಂಪರ್ಕದಲ್ಲಿರುವವರಾದರೆ ಆಗಾಗ್ಗೆ ನಿಮ್ಮ ಕೈಗಳನ್ನು dಜಿsಜ್ಞ್ಛಿಛ್ಚಿಠಿa್ಞಠಿ sp್ಟay ದ್ರಾವಣದಿಂದ ಆಗಾಗ ತೊಳೆಯಬೇಕು. ಹಾಗೆಂದು ಮನೆಯೊಳಗೆ ಕುಳಿತಿರುವವರು ಈ ರೀತಿ ಮಾಡಬೇಕೆಂದೇನೂ ಇಲ್ಲ.

ಮನೆಯಿಂದ ಹೊರ ಹೋದರೆ ಎರಡು ಬಾರಿ ಸ್ನಾನ ಮಾಡೋದು ಉತ್ತಮ. ಹೊರಗಿನಿಂದ ಬಂದು ಮೈ ಕೈ ಸ್ವಚ್ಛವಾಗಿ ತೊಳೆದುಕೊಳ್ಳದೇ ಮಕ್ಕಳನ್ನು ಮುದ್ದಿಸಬೇಡಿ. ನಿಮ್ಮ ನೆರೆಹೊರೆಯವರನ್ನು ಸೇರಿಸಿಕೊಂಡು ನಿಮ್ಮದೇ ಒಂದು ಗುಂಪು ರಚಿಸಿ ಎಚ್ಚರದ ಕಣ್ಣು ಹಾಗೂ ಹೆಜ್ಜೆ ಇಟ್ಟರೆ ನಿಮಗೆ ಈ ಸೋಂಕು ತಗಲುವುದಿಲ್ಲ.

ಭಯ ಬೇಡ: ಶೇ. 80 ರಷ್ಟು ಕೊರೋನಾ ರೋಗಿಗಳು ಸಾಯೋದಿಲ್ಲ!

ರೋಗ ಹೆಚ್ಚಾಗಿ ಕಾಣಿಸಿಕೊಂಡ ಪ್ರದೇಶಕ್ಕೆ ಹೆಚ್ಚು ಸಲ ಹೋಗುವುದು ಅಪಾಯ. ವಿನಾಕಾರಣ ಬೇರೆ ದೇಶಗಳಿಗೆ ಪ್ರಯಾಣಿಸುವುದು ಬೇಡವೇ ಬೇಡ.

ಕೊರೋನಾ ವೈರಸ್‌ ಹೇಗೆ ಹರಡುತ್ತದೆ?

1. ಕುಡಿಯುವ ನೀರಿನಿಂದ ಹರಡುತ್ತದೆಯೇ?

-ಇಲ್ಲ. ಇಲ್ಲಿಯತನಕ ಕುಡಿಯುವ ನೀರಲ್ಲಿ ಕೋವಿಡ್‌-19 ಪತ್ತೆಯಾಗಿಲ್ಲ.

2. ಮಲಮೂತ್ರಗಳಲ್ಲಿ, ರಕ್ತಕಶ್ಮಲಗಳಲ್ಲಿ ಈ ವೈರಸ್‌ ಇದೆಯೇ?

-ಕೆಲವು ಕೋವಿಡ್‌-19 ಪಾಸಿಟಿವ್‌ ರೋಗಿಗಳ ಮಲದಲ್ಲಿ ಈ ವೈರಸ್‌ ಕಂಡುಬಂದರೂ, ಅದು ರೋಗ ಹರಡುವುದಕ್ಕೆ ಎಷ್ಟರ ಮಟ್ಟಿಗೆ ಕಾರಣವಾಗುತ್ತದೆ ಎಂಬ ಬಗ್ಗೆ ಖಚಿತ ಮಾಹಿತಿ ಇಲ್ಲ. ಹಿಂದಿನ ಸಾರ್ಸ್‌ ಹಾಗೂ ಮರ್ಸ್‌ (ಮಿಡ್ಲ್‌ ಈಸ್ಟ್‌ ರೆಸ್ಪಿರೇಟರಿ ಸಿಂಡ್ರೋಮ್‌) ಹಬ್ಬಿದಾಗ ನಡೆದ ಸಂಶೋಧನೆಯ ಪ್ರಕಾರ ಮಲಮೂತ್ರಗಳಿಂದ ಹಬ್ಬುವ ಸಾಧ್ಯತೆ ತೀರಾ ಕಡಿಮೆ.

3. ಸಾರ್ವಜನಿಕ ಕೊಳ, ಸ್ನಾನದ ಮನೆಯಿಂದ ಹಬ್ಬೀತೇ?

- ಇಲ್ಲ, ಸಾಮಾನ್ಯವಾಗಿ ಶುದ್ಧೀಕರಿಸುವ ವಿಧಾನದಿಂದಾಗಿ ಇವೆಲ್ಲ ಶುದ್ಧವಾಗಿಯೇ ಇರುತ್ತವೆ. ಇಲ್ಲಿಂದ ವೈರಸ್‌ ಹರಡುವ ಸಾಧ್ಯತೆ ಕಡಿಮೆ.

4. ಚರಂಡಿ ಮತ್ತು ಒಳಚರಂಡಿಯ ನೀರಿನಿಂದ ಹಬ್ಬುವುದೇ?

- ಇಲ್ಲ, ಆದರೆ ಅವರು ಸುರಕ್ಷಿತ ವಿಧಾನಗಳನ್ನು ಬಳಸುವುದು ಒಳ್ಳೆಯದು. ತಾವು ಕೆಲಸ ಮಾಡುವಾಗ ಎಚ್ಚರದಿಂದ ಇರಬೇಕು ಮತ್ತು ಸೂಕ್ತ ವೈದ್ಯಕೀಯ ಕ್ರಮಗಳನ್ನು ತೆಗೆದುಕೊಳ್ಳಬೇಕು.

ಯಾರು ಈ ರೋಗಕ್ಕೆ ಬಲಿಯಾಗುವ ಸಾಧ್ಯತೆ ಹೆಚ್ಚಿದೆ?

ಸೋಂಕು ತಗುಲುವ ಮನುಷ್ಯನಿಗೆ ದೀರ್ಘ ಕಾಲದಿಂದ ಈ ಕೆಳಗಿನ ಆರೋಗ್ಯ ಸಮಸ್ಯೆಗಳಿದ್ದರೆ

- ದೀರ್ಘ ಕಾಲದಿಂದ ರಕ್ತದೊತ್ತಡ

- ಮಧುಮೇಹದಿಂದ ಬಳಲುತ್ತಿದ್ದರೆ

- ಪ್ರತಿರೋಧ ಶಕ್ತಿ ಕಡಿಮೆಯಿದ್ದಲ್ಲಿ

ಈ ಸೋಂಕು ಮಾರಣಾಂತಿಕವಾಗಬಹುದು.

- ಈವರೆಗಿನ ಅಂಕಿ ಅಂಶಗಳ ಪ್ರಕಾರ ವೃದ್ಧರು ಹಾಗೂ ಮಕ್ಕಳನ್ನು ಈ ವೈರಸ್‌ ಹೆಚ್ಚಿನ ಪ್ರಮಾಣದಲ್ಲಿ ಬಲಿ ಪಡೆದಿದೆ.

- ರೋಗಿಯ ಹತ್ತಿರದ ಬಂಧುಗಳು ಹಾಗೂ ಸೋಂಕಿತರಿಗೆ ಚಿಕಿತ್ಸೆ ನೀಡುವ ವೈದ್ಯರು, ಶುಶ್ರೂಷಕಿಯರು ಅತೀ ಹೆಚ್ಚು ಜಾಗೃತೆಯಿಂದಿರಬೇಕು. ರೋಗಿಯನ್ನು ಪ್ರತ್ಯೇಕವಾಗಿ ಐಸೋಲೇಶನ್‌ನಲ್ಲಿರಿಸಿ ಕ್ರಮಬದ್ಧವಾಗಿ ಚಿಕಿತ್ಸೆ ನೀಡಬೇಕು.

ಅಂಕಿ ಅಂಶಗಳು ಏನು ಹೇಳುತ್ತವೆ?

ಜಗತ್ತಿನಲ್ಲಿ ನಿನ್ನೆಯವರೆಗೆ 1,46,299 ಜನರಿಗೆ ಕೊರೋನಾ ವೈರಸ್‌ ತಗುಲಿದೆ. 5,441 ಜನರು ಮೃತಪಟ್ಟಿದ್ದಾರೆ. ನಮ್ಮ ದೇಶದಲ್ಲಿ ಈವರೆಗೆ ಈ ವೈರಸ್‌ ಸೋಂಕು ತಗುಲಿದವರ ಸಂಖ್ಯೆ 86. ಈ 86 ಜನರಲ್ಲಿ 64 ಜನ ನಮ್ಮ ದೇಶದವರೇ. ಉಳಿದ 17 ಜನ ಬೇರೆ ದೇಶದವರು. ಹೊರದೇಶದಿಂದ ಯಾತ್ರೆ ಮುಗಿಸಿ ಬಂದ ವೃದ್ಧರೊಬ್ಬರ ಸಾವು ಕರ್ನಾಟಕದಲ್ಲೇ ಆಗಿದೆ. ಹಾಗಾಗಿ ನಮ್ಮ ದೇಶದಲ್ಲಿ ಮೃತಪಟ್ಟವರ ಸಂಖ್ಯೆ 2.

*ನೋವು, ಜ್ವರ ಮತ್ತು ಕೆಮ್ಮಿಗೆ ಮಾತ್ರೆ ತೆಗೆದುಕೊಳ್ಳುವುದು. ಮಕ್ಕಳಿಗೆ ಆಸ್ಪಿರಿನ್ ಕೊಡಬೇಡಿ. ನಾಲ್ಕು ವರ್ಷಕ್ಕಿಂತ ಕಡಿಮೆ ವಯಸ್ಸಿನ ಮಕ್ಕಳಿಗೆ ಕೆಮ್ಮಿನ ಔಷಧಿ ನೀಡಬೇಡಿ.

District Health Officer (DHO) Dr Kishore Kumar said students entering the state from neighbouring Kerala constitute nearly 15 per cent of the new cases daily. “Even though their RT-PCR results are negative upon entry, we have been observing that many of them test positive nearly a week after they arrive.”

Dr Kumar, however, ruled out the possibility of a sudden spurt in new cases and fatalities in the district. “We have brought down the test positivity rate (TPR) which was 8-9 per cent last month to 3-3.5 per cent this month. We have also enhanced testing to nearly 11,000, which is a couple of thousands more than the target set by the state authorities,” he said.

Proximity to Kerala

When asked whether the rise in cases can be attributed to the district’s proximity to Kerala which continues to be the country’s Covid-19 hotspot, the DHO said the screening at border check-posts have kept the spread in check. “The TPR has been 10-12 per cent in the neighbouring Kasaragod district in Kerala. Our decision to continue strict checks at the borders have, in a way, kept the situation under control,” he explained.

The district authorities, however, acknowledged that people from Kasaragod travel to Mangaluru for most of their immediate needs, with the city being a hub of education and healthcare. “Mangaluru is indeed the closest city for the residents of Kasaragod as they have to travel double the distance to reach Kannur in their same state otherwise. Nonetheless, non-essential travel has been observed in many cases, forcing the police to send people back,” a senior officer from the district administration said.

When asked about the recent protests being held at the border check-points against the Covid guidelines in force, the officer said, “This is no time to protest but to realise that each citizen can contribute towards containing the pandemic better. Guidelines need to be followed.”

Reluctance by Covid-19 patients to move to CCCs

Chief Minister Basavaraj Bommai , during his recent visit to Dakshina Kannada, had asked the district administration to ensure that Covid-positive individuals are mandatorily shifted to Covid Care Centres (CCCs) instead of allowing home isolation.

“It is imperative that we classify patients as symptomatic and non-symptomatic and shift them to CCCs to control the spread of the virus. Patients can be allowed to be in home isolation only after they spend the initial 10 days since testing positive at CCCs. This would keep others at home safe,” Bommai had suggested.

DHO Dr Kumar revealed that most patients are reluctant to shift to a CCC. “We have been able to convince more people in the last few days as our staff has been generating more awareness on the fact that they would be attended to by health professionals round-the-clock if they are at a CCC, as opposed to a daily visit if in home isolation. More officials are now travelling daily to the homes of patients for the same and the results have started to show,” he said.

What does the death audit indicate?

With Dakshina Kannada reporting most Covid-19 fatalities in the state, the district administration claimed that death audits were conducted every alternate day. Officials attributed the rise in death toll to the hesitation shown by some individuals to seek timely medical intervention and to patients who suffer comorbidities but fail to report their symptoms.

“A majority of the fatalities noted here are of people aged above 60. Patients tend to get admitted to a hospital only when things go out of control. Most recent deaths were among patients who came to a hospital only after the oxygen saturation levels fell below 75 per cent. This, along with the comorbid conditions faced by senior citizens, has contributed to the rise in Covid deaths,” the DHO explained.

What measures have been taken to contain further spread?

The Dakshina Kannada district administration has revised its Covid management strategy to ensure that at least four houses around the residence of a positive person is declared a micro-containment zone.

Meanwhile, in anticipation of the non-vaccinated population (aged below 18) being more vulnerable to a possible third wave of the pandemic, paediatric health infrastructure is also being ramped up.

“Each taluk hospital has been equipped with paediatric primary care units. More doctors and other related medical staff have been hired and more people will be added to the workforce as and when required,” Deputy Commissioner ( DC ) K V Rajendra said.

He added that nearly 2,700 beds have been set up in 36 CCCs, and 118 private hospitals and clinics asked to be prepared to manage patients in the event of a sudden peak. “A 13,000-litre medical oxygen plant is being set up at Wenlock District Hospital in addition to a 12,000-litre oxygen plant which is already functioning,” the DC added.

The DHO said vaccination coverage has also been boosted in border areas as an added measure.

How to Write About the Impact of the Coronavirus in a College Essay

The global impact of COVID-19, the disease caused by the novel coronavirus, means colleges and prospective students alike are in for an admissions cycle like no other. Both face unprecedented challenges and questions as they grapple with their respective futures amid the ongoing fallout of the pandemic.

Colleges must examine applicants without the aid of standardized test scores for many -- a factor that prompted many schools to go test-optional for now . Even grades, a significant component of a college application, may be hard to interpret with some high schools adopting pass-fail classes last spring due to the pandemic. Major college admissions factors are suddenly skewed.

"I can't help but think other (admissions) factors are going to matter more," says Ethan Sawyer, founder of the College Essay Guy, a website that offers free and paid essay-writing resources.

College essays and letters of recommendation , Sawyer says, are likely to carry more weight than ever in this admissions cycle. And many essays will likely focus on how the pandemic shaped students' lives throughout an often tumultuous 2020.

[ Read: How to Write a College Essay. ]

But before writing a college essay focused on the coronavirus, students should explore whether it's the best topic for them.

Writing About COVID-19 for a College Application

Much of daily life has been colored by the coronavirus. Virtual learning is the norm at many colleges and high schools, many extracurriculars have vanished and social lives have stalled for students complying with measures to stop the spread of COVID-19.

"For some young people, the pandemic took away what they envisioned as their senior year," says Robert Alexander, dean of admissions, financial aid and enrollment management at the University of Rochester in New York. "Maybe that's a spot on a varsity athletic team or the lead role in the fall play. And it's OK for them to mourn what should have been and what they feel like they lost, but more important is how are they making the most of the opportunities they do have?"

That question, Alexander says, is what colleges want answered if students choose to address COVID-19 in their college essay.

But the question of whether a student should write about the coronavirus is tricky. The answer depends largely on the student.

"In general, I don't think students should write about COVID-19 in their main personal statement for their application," Robin Miller, master college admissions counselor at IvyWise, a college counseling company, wrote in an email.

"Certainly, there may be exceptions to this based on a student's individual experience, but since the personal essay is the main place in the application where the student can really allow their voice to be heard and share insight into who they are as an individual, there are likely many other topics they can choose to write about that are more distinctive and unique than COVID-19," Miller says.

[ Read: What Colleges Look for: 6 Ways to Stand Out. ]

Opinions among admissions experts vary on whether to write about the likely popular topic of the pandemic.

"If your essay communicates something positive, unique, and compelling about you in an interesting and eloquent way, go for it," Carolyn Pippen, principal college admissions counselor at IvyWise, wrote in an email. She adds that students shouldn't be dissuaded from writing about a topic merely because it's common, noting that "topics are bound to repeat, no matter how hard we try to avoid it."

Above all, she urges honesty.

"If your experience within the context of the pandemic has been truly unique, then write about that experience, and the standing out will take care of itself," Pippen says. "If your experience has been generally the same as most other students in your context, then trying to find a unique angle can easily cross the line into exploiting a tragedy, or at least appearing as though you have."

But focusing entirely on the pandemic can limit a student to a single story and narrow who they are in an application, Sawyer says. "There are so many wonderful possibilities for what you can say about yourself outside of your experience within the pandemic."

He notes that passions, strengths, career interests and personal identity are among the multitude of essay topic options available to applicants and encourages them to probe their values to help determine the topic that matters most to them -- and write about it.

That doesn't mean the pandemic experience has to be ignored if applicants feel the need to write about it.

Writing About Coronavirus in Main and Supplemental Essays

Students can choose to write a full-length college essay on the coronavirus or summarize their experience in a shorter form.

To help students explain how the pandemic affected them, The Common App has added an optional section to address this topic. Applicants have 250 words to describe their pandemic experience and the personal and academic impact of COVID-19.

[ Read: The Common App: Everything You Need to Know. ]

"That's not a trick question, and there's no right or wrong answer," Alexander says. Colleges want to know, he adds, how students navigated the pandemic, how they prioritized their time, what responsibilities they took on and what they learned along the way.

If students can distill all of the above information into 250 words, there's likely no need to write about it in a full-length college essay, experts say. And applicants whose lives were not heavily altered by the pandemic may even choose to skip the optional COVID-19 question.

"This space is best used to discuss hardship and/or significant challenges that the student and/or the student's family experienced as a result of COVID-19 and how they have responded to those difficulties," Miller notes. Using the section to acknowledge a lack of impact, she adds, "could be perceived as trite and lacking insight, despite the good intentions of the applicant."

To guard against this lack of awareness, Sawyer encourages students to tap someone they trust to review their writing , whether it's the 250-word Common App response or the full-length essay.

Experts tend to agree that the short-form approach to this as an essay topic works better, but there are exceptions. And if a student does have a coronavirus story that he or she feels must be told, Alexander encourages the writer to be authentic in the essay.

"My advice for an essay about COVID-19 is the same as my advice about an essay for any topic -- and that is, don't write what you think we want to read or hear," Alexander says. "Write what really changed you and that story that now is yours and yours alone to tell."

Sawyer urges students to ask themselves, "What's the sentence that only I can write?" He also encourages students to remember that the pandemic is only a chapter of their lives and not the whole book.

Miller, who cautions against writing a full-length essay on the coronavirus, says that if students choose to do so they should have a conversation with their high school counselor about whether that's the right move. And if students choose to proceed with COVID-19 as a topic, she says they need to be clear, detailed and insightful about what they learned and how they adapted along the way.

"Approaching the essay in this manner will provide important balance while demonstrating personal growth and vulnerability," Miller says.

Pippen encourages students to remember that they are in an unprecedented time for college admissions.

"It is important to keep in mind with all of these (admission) factors that no colleges have ever had to consider them this way in the selection process, if at all," Pippen says. "They have had very little time to calibrate their evaluations of different application components within their offices, let alone across institutions. This means that colleges will all be handling the admissions process a little bit differently, and their approaches may even evolve over the course of the admissions cycle."

Covid 19 Essay in English

Essay on Covid -19: In a very short amount of time, coronavirus has spread globally. It has had an enormous impact on people's lives, economy, and societies all around the world, affecting every country. Governments have had to take severe measures to try and contain the pandemic. The virus has altered our way of life in many ways, including its effects on our health and our economy. Here are a few sample essays on ‘CoronaVirus’.

100 Words Essay on Covid 19

200 words essay on covid 19, 500 words essay on covid 19.

COVID-19 or Corona Virus is a novel coronavirus that was first identified in 2019. It is similar to other coronaviruses, such as SARS-CoV and MERS-CoV, but it is more contagious and has caused more severe respiratory illness in people who have been infected. The novel coronavirus became a global pandemic in a very short period of time. It has affected lives, economies and societies across the world, leaving no country untouched. The virus has caused governments to take drastic measures to try and contain it. From health implications to economic and social ramifications, COVID-19 impacted every part of our lives. It has been more than 2 years since the pandemic hit and the world is still recovering from its effects.

Since the outbreak of COVID-19, the world has been impacted in a number of ways. For one, the global economy has taken a hit as businesses have been forced to close their doors. This has led to widespread job losses and an increase in poverty levels around the world. Additionally, countries have had to impose strict travel restrictions in an attempt to contain the virus, which has resulted in a decrease in tourism and international trade. Furthermore, the pandemic has put immense pressure on healthcare systems globally, as hospitals have been overwhelmed with patients suffering from the virus. Lastly, the outbreak has led to a general feeling of anxiety and uncertainty, as people are fearful of contracting the disease.

My Experience of COVID-19

I still remember how abruptly colleges and schools shut down in March 2020. I was a college student at that time and I was under the impression that everything would go back to normal in a few weeks. I could not have been more wrong. The situation only got worse every week and the government had to impose a lockdown. There were so many restrictions in place. For example, we had to wear face masks whenever we left the house, and we could only go out for essential errands. Restaurants and shops were only allowed to operate at take-out capacity, and many businesses were shut down.

In the current scenario, coronavirus is dominating all aspects of our lives. The coronavirus pandemic has wreaked havoc upon people’s lives, altering the way we live and work in a very short amount of time. It has revolutionised how we think about health care, education, and even social interaction. This virus has had long-term implications on our society, including its impact on mental health, economic stability, and global politics. But we as individuals can help to mitigate these effects by taking personal responsibility to protect themselves and those around them from infection.

Effects of CoronaVirus on Education

The outbreak of coronavirus has had a significant impact on education systems around the world. In China, where the virus originated, all schools and universities were closed for several weeks in an effort to contain the spread of the disease. Many other countries have followed suit, either closing schools altogether or suspending classes for a period of time.

This has resulted in a major disruption to the education of millions of students. Some have been able to continue their studies online, but many have not had access to the internet or have not been able to afford the costs associated with it. This has led to a widening of the digital divide between those who can afford to continue their education online and those who cannot.

The closure of schools has also had a negative impact on the mental health of many students. With no face-to-face contact with friends and teachers, some students have felt isolated and anxious. This has been compounded by the worry and uncertainty surrounding the virus itself.

The situation with coronavirus has improved and schools have been reopened but students are still catching up with the gap of 2 years that the pandemic created. In the meantime, governments and educational institutions are working together to find ways to support students and ensure that they are able to continue their education despite these difficult circumstances.

Effects of CoronaVirus on Economy

The outbreak of the coronavirus has had a significant impact on the global economy. The virus, which originated in China, has spread to over two hundred countries, resulting in widespread panic and a decrease in global trade. As a result of the outbreak, many businesses have been forced to close their doors, leading to a rise in unemployment. In addition, the stock market has taken a severe hit.

Effects of CoronaVirus on Health

The effects that coronavirus has on one's health are still being studied and researched as the virus continues to spread throughout the world. However, some of the potential effects on health that have been observed thus far include respiratory problems, fever, and coughing. In severe cases, pneumonia, kidney failure, and death can occur. It is important for people who think they may have been exposed to the virus to seek medical attention immediately so that they can be treated properly and avoid any serious complications. There is no specific cure or treatment for coronavirus at this time, but there are ways to help ease symptoms and prevent the virus from spreading.
