Declared a pandemic this virus left no stone unturned to jumble and jiggle the lives of the people around the word. It was not only a hit to the health but gushed into the work, businesses, daily lives and what not. Distances are the new normal, in spite of suffocation and irritation masks have become the new beauty. Coronavirus, the little but hard. Now if you really want your neck to stick out, pull down the mask and get ready to fight! Well that’s ironical! Consensus upon the safety guides and measures taken globally, the countries came on to the details of safety merely known as the SOPS, standard operating rules. Let’s drilldown to what UK did. Safety guides and measures by UK have been really austere. But that was much required. Before just hoping on to the safety guides and measure by UK and keep your eyes glued to the guidance that you actually know, let us just have a sneak peek of what this virus is all about and how creepy it is to crawl in our lives. Google might be amused somehow to see that the crawling competition still exists! The IT experts might visible understand what I mean here.
The world actually saw this coming officially in December 2019, when the out break occurred in the city of China named Wuhan, the world experienced what we call the tyranny led by this virus, infectious, this virus gave some deadly sites where people started to fall of like anything on streets, hospitals gave a picture of nothing less than a market of bodies wrapped in sheets. Doctors were on the run, hats off to them. Symptoms ranging from fever, cough, sore throat and headaches occur while the most severe casing feel difficulty in breathing and death. Till yet no body was able to discover the exact vaccine to the virus. WHO took severe actions declaring the virus to be a global pandemic, however, countries were intimated with instructions of taking effective measures and guides.
UK, among all of these UK took a step ahead and threw caution to the wind. Not caring for the aftermath a strict lockdown was imposed as the first step to cover the outbreak. Obviously sometimes unplanned things come up with their successes and failures, UK did faced a setback on the economy.
The first core document of the standard operating rules was revealed by the UK, NHS, was in March 2020, named as general practice in the context of Coronavirus.
