The three-year pandemic has ravaged the world, causing irreversible impacts on the global economy and the health of people around the world.
Although the three-year epidemic that plagued the world finally disappeared, it left behind six strange phenomena that are difficult to cure.
So how did the new crown epidemic destabilize the world, and why did it suddenly disappear, causing what 6 strange "sequelae" are there today?
First, the beginning and end of the outbreak of the new crown epidemic
At the end of 2019, the local official website broadcast the incidence of an ordinary pneumonia patient.
At first, the people of the whole country didn't care about it, but they didn't want it to grow like a snowball rolling down a snowy mountain.
On December 30, 2019, the epidemic pneumonia spread widely to the mainland, and the development of the disease intensified.
The next day, Wuhan announced the first batch of pneumonia infection patients, with a total of 27 cases, of which 7 are in serious condition and have reached the brink of endangerment.
At this time, the phenomenon of human-to-human transmission of pneumonia began, and the point of initiation of the incident was blocked.
At the same time, similar cases began to appear in Hong Kong, and the new crown pneumonia began to rage across the country.
And under the research of relevant virologists, it was found that the new crown virus contains strong toxicity and has a tendency to mutate, so the research and development of the new crown vaccine cannot be delayed.
For this reason, German biologists and medical scientists flew to China overnight to participate in vaccine research.
At the same time, the coronavirus pandemic began to spread around the world, and the United Nations characterized it as a "public health emergency of international concern".
Subsequently, the new coronavirus began to appear in various objects, and objects became the vector of the new coronavirus.
For example, doorknobs, daily necessities, and hospital beds were tested for the new coronavirus, and the whole country fell into a state of epidemic lockdown.
Because masks can play a significant role in epidemic prevention and control, masks have become extremely sought-after materials for the people of the whole country and the world.
At the same time, the price of masks ushered in a crazy rise, and even reached a sky-high price of 5 yuan per mask at its peak.
During the lockdown of the new crown epidemic, the country's foreign trade economy stagnated, and the tourism industry was suspended, which in turn led to a global economic downturn and a serious economic crisis broke out in Western countries.
As the new coronavirus continues to mutate, its virulence is declining.
Therefore, Western countries made a trade-off between epidemic lockdown and economic development, and finally decided to lift the lockdown and break out of collective infection.
At the end of 2022, the mainland finally chose to lift the lockdown, and the three-year new crown epidemic suddenly disappeared.
2. Six strange phenomena brought about by the epidemic
Looking back now, the three-year fight against the epidemic is like a passing cloud.
Although the epidemic has now disappeared, the ongoing impact of the epidemic is still fermenting, and it has brought about six strange phenomena.
So what are the six sequelae of the epidemic in the mainland due to the impact of the epidemic?
1. The importance of masks has increased
Among the strange phenomena brought about by the epidemic, the most significant is the attitude of the common people towards masks.
For the people before the epidemic, masks were basically not a necessity for daily life.
Only workers like shop floor workers, as well as patients with chronic respiratory diseases, wear masks at all times.
However, with the fermentation of the epidemic, the people have gradually increased their attention to masks.
Even though the pandemic has now dissipated, many families still keep the habit of hoarding masks and subconsciously wear them when they go out.
And in public areas such as buses and subways, even though the mandatory requirement for wearing masks has been lifted, many passengers will also wear masks spontaneously.
Even when you return home, you will disinfect with disinfectant, but now that the new crown epidemic is gone, isn't wearing a mask an act of redundancy?
In fact, wearing a mask can effectively avoid the spread of epidemic viruses and play an important role in maintaining health.
2. The physical resistance of the common people is reduced
The second strange phenomenon brought about by the new crown epidemic is that the body of the general population has become more vulnerable, and the incidence of disease has increased significantly regardless of the age.
Before being infected with the new crown, many people had strong resistance to epidemic viruses and basically did not get sick for a year and a half.
However, after being infected with the new crown, the strong body becomes fragile, and as long as it is in the season when the epidemic virus is rampant, it is inevitable to come to the hospital to hang water.
If it's a simple cold, it's fine, but there are also patients who show signs of continuous deterioration of their own diseases after the new crown epidemic.
Especially for patients with respiratory tract defects, there are not a few people whose condition deteriorates, and even die in serious cases!
It is worth noting that this strange phenomenon is widespread all over the world, which is due to the special nature of the new coronavirus.
The new coronavirus has mutated to the later stage, and its virulence has been greatly reduced, and it has been reduced to the category of self-limiting viruses.
The so-called self-limiting virus means that the human body can "kill" the virus under the influence of its own immunity, and theoretically does not need any drugs to assist it.
Although the virus is much less virulent, after entering the human body, it will hit all vulnerable parts of the body in a very short time.
If the patient has a chronic disease, the virus will focus on the affected area, which can worsen the patient's condition.
Not only that, but the new coronavirus also attacks the body's immune system, causing irreparable damage to the immune system.
The immunity of patients who have been infected with the new crown will decline, and the resistance will weaken in the face of the impact of diseases such as influenza.
3. The behavior of ordinary people to take medicine is becoming more and more common
The third strange phenomenon brought about by the new crown epidemic is the increasing number of people spontaneously stockpiling medicines.
During the epidemic, every household is very vigilant about the common cold, because any fever may be a precursor to the new crown infection.
And once you have a fever and your body is sick, you will be taken to an isolation point for centralized isolation, and even medical staff will come to pick you up in the middle of the night.
Once you enter the quarantine point, it means a lot of economic losses, and you need to pay not only for accommodation, but also for food, medicine, etc.
Life was already difficult during the pandemic, and being quarantined undoubtedly increased the financial pressure on individuals.
Therefore, when most people feel unwell, they often take medication to relieve symptoms such as fever and avoid being taken away for isolation.
Moreover, on the eve of the opening of the epidemic, the people of the whole country fell into the first wave of new crown infections.
It is rumored that Lotus Light Plague Capsule has a miraculous effect on the new crown, and a wave of Tun Lotus Qingwen Capsule broke out across the country.
Although it was later proved that Lotus Qingwen did not have any effect on the alleviation of the new crown disease, the people of the mainland still developed the habit of taking medicine.
Especially at the turn of spring and autumn, it is the period when colds are most rampant, and it is a rainy day to protect the health of your family.
4. The number of freelancers has increased dramatically
The fourth peculiar phenomenon brought about by the coronavirus is the increasing number of freelancers.
According to the latest statistics from the Continental Bureau of Statistics, the number of freelancers in mainland China has reached a staggering 200 million.
If you visit the night market at night, you will also find that the number of vendors setting up stalls is constantly increasing.
This is because due to the impact of the epidemic, a large number of industries in the mainland have ushered in a waterloo of development.
For example, the tourism and foreign trade industries are the industries that have been most affected by the new crown, and a large number of employees have been laid off and unemployed.
For example, other emerging industries have also suffered from the impact of the epidemic, which has led to a national economic recession.
However, a large number of young laborers in the mainland are still facing severe housing loans and car loans, and it is impossible to live a flat life, so a large number of freelancers choose to set up stalls to make money.
In addition, mainland self-media personnel also climbed to the highest peak during the epidemic.
This is because during the lockdown period, most families were stuck at home with nothing to do, and had no choice but to have fun by taking videos.
Moreover, during the epidemic, a large number of people lost their jobs, and they seized the new media outlet, devoted themselves to the creation of short videos, and became a well-known Internet celebrity.
5. Consumption downgrade
After the pandemic, many people's quality of life has changed dramatically.
A large number of young people perceive that it is becoming more difficult to make money nowadays, so they are gradually changing their habits.
Young people who may have been on sale before the epidemic have learned to save and plan their lives after the epidemic.
Consumers who went to the restaurant three days before the epidemic also learned to cook at home after the epidemic.
The slowdown in global economic growth after the epidemic is the fundamental reason for the downgrade of people's consumption.
As an e-commerce platform focusing on low-end goods, it has ushered in rapid development during the epidemic, which has already explained all the problems.
In the future, with the gradual recovery of the economic situation, the consumption downgrade may usher in an improvement.
6. Revenge tourism
Due to the lockdown during the epidemic, it can be said that the group that loves tourism is not lightly suffocated.
This led to a "revenge" tourism boom among people across the country after the epidemic was released.
Not only the National Day and Mid-Autumn Festival, but also the May Day and Qingming Festival, a large number of people have to travel and go out.
The grand occasion of the flow of people often leads to the occurrence of crowding in major tourist attractions, and even causes congestion of people and the dream of enjoying the scenery is shattered.
And because of the excessive flow of people, it will also lead to tight transportation and accommodation conditions.
However, revenge tourism can promote the recovery of the mainland's tourism industry and play a role in promoting economic growth.
epilogue
The three-year epidemic has posed severe challenges to the health and normal life of people all over the world, and six strange phenomena have been produced after the epidemic, which are due to the "sequelae" caused by the new crown epidemic.
It is important to note that the new coronavirus has not disappeared, but continues to ravage in the form of influenza, so even if the new crown is over, you still need to not let your guard down and pay attention to daily personal hygiene.
