and even the USA. As the virus attacks the entire globe, fear grips communities all over the world. Why?
Because F E A R actually means False Expectations Appearing Real. There is a difference between fear and danger. There is no doubt that there was a virus spreading and therefore, the World Health Organization declared it as a Global Pandemic. But, far more dangerous than the Pandemic itself, was another Pandemic—FEAR. Fear was making people believe that the world may come to an end. It scared people and they thought that they would die. It made countries imagine that their entire population would be wiped out. Why? It was because of fear.
What has fear done? For the first time ever, practically all the countries of the world have closed their borders. While that is understandable, it has led to an unprecedented wave of unemployment as the world has shut down literally everything. Hotels and restaurants, airlines and airports, gyms and swimming pools, offices and businesses, even temples, churches, and mosques. The entire world has come to a standstill. The busiest streets in the largest cities of the world wear a deserted look as television channels show what seem to be ghost towns. What has made leaders around the globe resort to decisions that would create not just an economic crisis, but a financial disaster like never before?
