COVID-19 Awareness Drive 🦠

Covid-19 is new to the whole world, and at that time there was no medical solution other than taking precautions to stop the epidemic and save lives. People are not accustomed to this disease, so it was very important to make them aware of it and what actions to take to prevent it from spreading around the world. As a Boy Scout, it is our duty to be prepared and endure difficult times. Therefore, consulting with brokers was one of the quickest ways to inform them of the cause and precautions.
As a scout, I had the opportunity to personally distribute brokers and advisors at the community level. Covid-19 was in the very early stages at the time, but the protocol was different today. We especially advise those with older people, children and pregnant women, as they are more likely to be at high risk due to vaccination problems and hypersensitivity in the elderly. Learn how to take precautions (wash / disinfect your hands frequently, avoid crowds, etc.).
Awareness efforts continued at various stages, allowing community members to slowly and gradually take precautions to avoid large gatherings. The next day, it was clear to the observers that people knew what the virus was and how dangerous it was. They even spread the knowledge to others.
As a Boy Scout, I learned how much power communication has and it can make a big impact just by sharing awareness among the crowd (root level) the consciousness. As a proud scout, I feel fortunate to have the opportunity to stop the life-threatening virus and play my part in serving humanity.
