The Number of COVID 19 Cases is Misleading



In 2019, December China have announced about a new disease which is spreading across China rapidly and warned about the possibility that it has already reached other countries.

Starting from march most countries around the globe started taking the disease seriously. We started hearing about the confirmed cases in each country. In the beginning, it was relatively an accurate number but gradually the numbers started to be way far from the truth. We started to know more and more about Covid 19 and we realized how it is extremely contagious.

After a few months from entering a country, Covid 19 might infect hundreds of thousands or even millions of people depending on the population of the country and some other factors. At this point, hospitals stop taking tests for anyone. You need to be really sick to be considered for taking the test.

Gradually, the number of people who want to take the test skyrocket. Then they start to stop taking tests for even the people who are really sick. They just tell them to take certain medicines, vitamins and follow some steps to get recovered. This means that the announced number of confirmed cases is no longer accurate and actually it might be misleading. The real number might be double, triple or even twenty-fold the announced number. It is not because the authorities are not working properly, but it is out of control. They have to make difficult dicision and whatever they do they will be criticized.

I realized that often time, being optimistic is just a way of escaping the brutal truth. It is actually will make you less happy instead of more happy. Even too much positivity is bad for you.

2022/04/30 (The Power of 30 Days Challenge )

 Yesterday I was watching videos in YouTube about Fitness. I started watching one video after the other. I watched a video about an interesting work out that sticked in my mind. The video maker explained how much he is interested in trying famous Hollywood actors work out. He was talking about King Arthur movie and how the actor have shredded body. His work out was basically punching the air 1000 times every day for 3 months. This guy decided to try this work out for 30 days. He inspired me to try doing this work out.
