Social Media – A Savior During the COVID-19 Pandemic

 

COVID19 has hit us hard making almost us all prisoners in our own homes. While some of us are stepping out for basic amenities and work, there’s still a lot we can’t do. Going out with friends, attending fancy seminars, planning a trip, disco-nights… well, all of these seem like a thing of the past, at least till there’s a vaccine.

But, here’s a silver lining. While it is crucial to maintain physical distance, we can still get very much social, all thanks to Social Media. Seminars have become webinars, going to work has turned to work from home, classes have gone digital, and so on.

Take a look at a few of the core benefits which have made Social Media a savior during this pandemic.

Dissemination of important information

While Social Media platforms are flooded with baseless claims about cures for Coronavirus and rumors, we cannot shy away from the fact that it has provided us with a lot of important information too. It is up to the users to follow credible pages such as that of WHO, Government Offices, and News Channels.

Safe Working and Learning Environment

Although going to schools and offices have been rendered dangerous, owing to meeting a lot of people increasing the risk of transmission, neither learning nor working has stopped. People are working from home, attending meetings and webinars in Zoom, sharing files on Google Drive or Cloud, having small discussions on WhatsApp, and more. Similarly, schools are taking online classes and online tests.

Get-Togethers

Oh, how we miss hanging out with our best friends at the cafe, going to parties, family gatherings, and more. There’s physical distancing to be maintained, and you can’t pop up at our friend’s house out of the blue, but that doesn’t mean we can’t stay connected. We video call our loved ones, share new recipes, gossip, and more on social media. On an even better note, get-togethers on PJs are amazing!

Shopping

Yes, there’re Amazon and Flipkart, but this pandemic has also given rise to more and more sellers selling on Instagram and Facebook. It has given a chance for businesses to connect with an even wider range of customers, connect with them, and understand them better.

Summing it up, Social Media is pretty awesome and has been of great help during this pandemic.
