I noticed a series of tweets by Dr. Jagadish Hiremath. He said:
“Social distancing is a privilege. It means you live in a house large enough to practise it.
Hand washing is a privilege too. It means you have access to running water.
Hand sanitisers are a privilege. It means you have money to buy them.
Lockdowns are a privilege. It means you can afford to be at home.
Most of the ways to ward off Corona are accessible only to the affluent.
In essence, a disease that was spread by the rich as they flew around the globe will now kill millions of the poor.
All those who are practising social distancing & imposed a lockdown on themselves must appreciate how privileged we are.
More importantly those who can do it yet still move around infecting others especially the poor are criminals.
Poor cannot afford it please be considerate.
Many Indians won’t be able to afford it.”
This has touched me deeply…and made me think how grateful I am to have and live within those privileges…
It also reminds me that it’s our responsibility to look around and extend our hands to help those who need it in our neighbourhood…Let’s return our blessings in that way when possible.
