World have faced many epidemics till now and this one is the worst. Scientists and medical researchers have for years have differed over the exact definition of a pandemic (is it a pandemic, or an epidemic), but one thing everyone agrees on is that the word describes the widespread occurrence of disease, in excess of what might normally be expected in a geographical region. Cholera, bubonic plague, smallpox, and influenza are some of the most brutal killers in human history. And outbreaks of these diseases across international borders, are properly defined as pandemic, especially smallpox, which throughout history, has killed between 300-500 million people in its 12,000 year existence. 

COVID – 19

Starting in December 2019, in the locale of Wuhan, China, another (“novel”) coronavirus started showing up in people. It has been named Covid-19, an abbreviated type of “coronavirus Disease of 2019.” This new infection spreads extraordinarily immediately between individuals, because of its novelty – nobody on earth has a resistance to Covid-19, on the grounds that nobody had Covid-19 until 2019. While it was at first observed to be a plague in China, the infection spread worldwide inside months. The WHO announced Covid-19 a pandemic in spring, and before that month’s over, the world saw in excess of a half-million individuals tainted and about 30,000 deaths. The disease rate in the US and different countries was all the while spiking. With the coronavirus pandemic, individuals everywhere throughout the world have gotten increasingly mindful of the accepted procedures during a pandemic, from cautious hand-washing to social Distancing. Nations over the world announced compulsory stay-at-home measures, shutting schools, organizations, and open spots. Many organizations and a lot increasingly autonomous specialists started chipping away at tests, medicines, and immunizations. The push for mankind to endure the pandemic turned into the essential worry in the world. The result of the Covid-19 pandemic is difficult to foresee, at the hour of this composition. However, we can gain from pandemics in history to decide our best courses. These are our teachers – the Spanish flu, the AIDS pandemic, and more. 

Previous Fights with Pandemic

The series of Pandemic started from Antonine Plague (165 AD) with Death Toll of 5 million and then Cause was Unknown. This plague affected Asia Minor, Egypt, Greece, and Italy and is thought to have been either Smallpox or Measles, though the true cause is still unknown.  In 541, Plague OF Justinian came with a Death Toll of 25 million and the Cause was Bubonic Plague. Outbreak of the bubonic plague that afflicted the Byzantine Empire and Mediterranean port cities. The same plague (Bubonic Plague)
 came in 1346 with name of the Black Death. From 1346 to 1353 an outbreak of the Plague ravaged Europe, Africa, and Asia, with an estimated death toll between 75 and 200 million people. Generally considered the most deadly of the seven cholera pandemics, the third major outbreak of Cholera in the 19th century lasted from 1852 to 1860 with an estimated death toll of 1 million people. Like the first and second pandemics, the Third Cholera Pandemic originated in India, spreading from the Ganges River Delta before tearing through Asia, Europe, North America and Africa and ending the lives of over a million people. After this in 1889,came The Flu Pandemic (death toll- 1 million) originally the “Asiatic Flu” or “Russian Flu” as it was called, this strain was thought to be an outbreak of the Influenza A virus subtype H2N2, though recent discoveries have instead found the cause to be the Influenza A virus subtype H3N8. The cases were observed in May 1889 in three separate and distant locations, Bukhara in Central Asia (Turkestan), Athabasca in northwestern Canada, and Greenland. The Cholera and Flu pandemics happened again and again putting people lives on stake on large scale but later cure was found. The most recent pandemic was HIV/AIDS PANDEMIC and it was at its peak, 2005-2012 with an estimated death Toll of 36 million and the Cause was HIV/AIDS. First identified in Democratic Republic of the Congo in 1976, HIV/AIDS has really substantiated itself as a worldwide pandemic, slaughtering in excess of 36 million individuals since 1981. At present there are somewhere in the range of 31 and 35 million individuals living with HIV, most by far of those are in Sub-Saharan Africa, where 5% of the populace is contaminated, around 21 million individuals. As mindfulness has developed, new medicines have been built up that make HIV undeniably progressively sensible, and a large number of those contaminated proceed to have beneficial existences. Somewhere in the range of 2005 and 2012 the yearly worldwide death from HIV/Helps dropped from 2.2 million to 1.6 million. As we have recovered from such grave death incidence with patience and precautions, I believe we would overcome from this pandemic as well together.
