Man as a Selfish Animal .

Today many citizens like me who live in Mumbai heard our honourable Chief Minister talk about the rising number of corona virus cases across Maharashtra. He started his speech by mentioning about the lockdown scenario across the globe especially in the regions of Brazil , and Belgium . Where there is lockdown but no happiness on the other hand he mentioned about how the state of Maharashtra is preparing itself for medical emergencies in future . He mentioned and brought to light a situation where we are mentally prepared but the virus has become so powerful and merciless that the preparation of the government and bureaucrats seems to have been failing.

While what attracted me to his speech was the highlight about the Doctors and nurses who seem to have been working all day long to cure the patients to become stronger and fitter and lead a normal life . While many say that lockdown shall have an adverse effect on the economy , Our CM on the other hand presented a situation across all of us where there is no lockdown . all the citizens of Maharashtra are economically better but there is a major lack in the Health care system and the Doctors and Nurses have become insufficient to treat the virus hit patients .

Somewhere in my heart I felt that the political idea of man as a social animal can be changed to the idea of man as a selfish animal . Where man has a lot of money but no health care resource to treat his illness .

While a 2 day time period has created a lot of buzz and curiosity among the citizens a rational thinking of life should be put over economy and money is what I have felt .
