Steem engagement challenge season 2 week 3
Help everyone and welcome to another day on my blog, today we would be discussing something very important and that is the impact covid-19 had on our life and also with special emphasis on our various work places.
Question 1
Covid-19 was an epidemic. What would you say about it? Explain in your own words.

In my own words I wouldn't say covid-19 was an epidemic rather it was a pandemic as it had far reaching consequences world wide.
Safe to say that in the past 10 years I have withness two of this kind of events the first being the first being the ebola outbreak with happened in 2014 and the second being the covid 19 pandemic.
While both are very infectious diseases we can clearly see that though the ebola outbreak was more deadly it was able to be contained within the confines of West Africa hence majority of the world don't feel the terror in which we experienced in 2014.
The covid19 which is a sever form of maleria according to many was able to spread to virtually all part of the world and proved to be one of the most deadly health care challenges the world has faced since the Spanish flu, the impact of covid 19 sure the world go on standby for month as medical practitioner's battled between life and death to ensure the survival of does inflected.
It is my opinion that covid 19 was greatest health crises we have faced since the Spanish flu.
Question 2
What difficulties did you personally encounter during Covid-19?
With covid 19 came alo of difficulties such as the restriction of movement and compulsory wearing of face mask.
Particularly during the lock down in 2020 I was told to evacuate from school and return home as the window for traveling was closing really fast
When I got home we weren't allowed to leave our houses for anything except essential supplies such as medicine and food stuff.
My education is yet to recover as a result of this , in school we are still far behind in some courses we were supposed to finish.
Question 3
How Steemit blockchain helped you during Covid-19 ?
Sad to say steemit didn't help me during the lock down as during that time I wasn't aware of the existence of steemit, although it would have been a really nice distraction for me to engage my self in during the covid 19 lockdown.
But I was able to learn about blockchain during the covid-19 it was at this point I bought my first crypto currency which was xrp.
Question 4
How many people in your household were affected by Covid-19 disease and what was the condition
Officially no one in my house hold was affected my the covid 19 virus this is because we applied proper safety precautions such as wearing of face mask at all times and the use of hand santizer.
In officially it would be difficult to determine if anyone got infected by the covid19 due to shortage of testing equipment which was faced in many parts of the county.
Question 5
How did Stemit keep you busy or rely on information when you were home locked during covid-19?

Around that time I took to writing and learning a new language as a form of distraction.
Before covid I hadn't had much time to enhance my writing skills due to the fact that I was wholly engrossed in academic activities but during that break when schoos were closed and there was nothing to do, I found that writing worked as a healthy distraction from the prevailing situations around me.
Question 6
Did you sell steemit earing during covid-19 to reduce or eliminate the problems you face in your daily life?
Around this point in my life I had not yet started steemit so no o didn't sell steemit earning as I had none.
But I did however start my crypto journey during this point by investing in xrp.
Around the time I bought xrp they had just started Thier law suit with the SEC so the price was relatively cheap when the price went up I saw my first crypto profit and I used this money to buy face mask for the family.
Question 7
Did steemit help other people besides you in your country, city during covid-19 global epidemic?
My mentor @swaylee told me stories of how steemit helped his then very good friend @awesononso who then used money he made from steemit to get a new phone a laptop and various other items he saw were necessary for his survival.
Steemit had been helping people in ways like this for a very long time and that is why I am greatful to steemit for being such a string force in the life of many people around the world.
Question 8
You informed people about steemit during covid-19 so that they too can get out of trouble by joining steemit.

No I didnt inform anyone about steemit during the lockdown this si because as I said earlier I wasn't a steemians at that point but after the lock down when I became of steemit I informed Alot of my friend such as @ronindboss @soleybaba @acedluffy and a few others.
This were indivduals who saw how my life had changed Soo much and were immediately interested in joining steemit
Question 9
What difficulties ,major issues,did you face during Covid-19's terrible disease and how did Steemit improve,support and help in your life during Covid-19 and other people around your city or country. (write own experience) ?

The main issue I faxed during the covid-19 was that of psychology and emotionally break down, with so much time on my hand my mind began to take me to the place where I didn't want to be taken, I began recall all the bad things that had happened in my life all the mistakes I had made and all the chances I have lost, with COVID 19 looking so serious a part of me feared I would never be able to correct woke mistakes I made this troubled me deeply.
The aspect of isolation only compounder problems as I wasn't able to meet with friends and loved onces the mere thought of not being able to see some of my friends again really scared me , at some point the isolation become too much and it nearly drove me insane.
Question 10
Share your selfie holding the paper with the text I love you steemit for helping me during covid-19 and date The purpose of this selfie is that we can pay a great tribute to steemit for helping us during covid-19.

I do accept with you. I think it was a pandemic because of its effect. You know I had almost forgotten we first experience something like this in 2014, the Ebola virus. I was so scarred of the Ebola and thank God it died down before reaching my country.
I am also happy to know no one in your family was affected by the virus. This is a blessing we all had in Africa..it was not as devastating as it was in the European countries..
Thank God for life and I wish you the best in this contest

My dear friend, like you, was not aware of this platform in 2020. I would be very happy if I could be on this platform in 2020 because it helped a lot of people and it would help us too.
I'm glad to hear that steemit helped your friend in this bad situation. And there is no doubt that many of my friends also helped in this. This platform is incomparable.
My dear friend I am very happy to read your thoughts and I invite you to visit my post too. I hope you will also get enough knowledge. I am waiting.

It's great to know that no one in your family has been infected with Covid-19. No one in my family was infected. We were at home and consciously observed the lockdown. Although my job was gone then, I worked on the steemit platform and became self-sufficient. It was great to visit your post.
