Assalamualaikum, I hope you all are doing well and enjoying your happy & healthy life. Congratulations to steemit health for being selected for steemit engagement challenge season 8. I am here to share my participation in the week 1 contest as I found it's an interesting topic and I can share my point of view too.

What do you consider to be the main lesson you learned from the pandemic?

COVID-19 was the worst pandemic situation, I have ever faced in my life. I can't imagine that a virus can increase morbidity and mortality rates in the whole world. This was the situation when everywhere was locked down and no one can do anything like jobs, studies, etc. I learned a lot of things during this time.

First thing, I learned that if we work in a group form we can achieve anything. I have seen a lot of people helping out people in pandemic situations even if they can't survive after doing great things. People were helping out those who can't afford food and medication during a pandemic but they were supporting them by providing all the necessities of life.

The people were supporting irrespective of thinking anything getting in reward because they know that they will be rewarded higher on the day of judgment. I learned through the panda through teamwork and unity we can achieve anything in life.

Did you have any loss of family or friends because of the pandemic? Can you tell us about it?

Alhamdulilah I am blessed that no one from our family and friend lost their life due to the pandemic. Even though some people suffered from COVID-19 but they recovered successfully and now living healthy life. But I am grateful to Allah that our family didn't diagnose with Covid and we were safe during the pandemic situation.

What was the most difficult moment during the pandemic?

The most difficult moment for me was I couldn't be able to study properly even though all the classes were online and we can't attend labs at the university. As thwaswere a complete lockdown and we can't ask them to conduct labs in the university as all students were at their homes, they can't come back to hostels just for attending labs.

So, at that, it was difficult for me to study and exams were also online we can't even understand things properly. As you all know medicine is a tough profession but we can't do anything during a pandemic. Sometimes I feel bad, angry, and dishearted that when this will end we will study again in a normal way.

Second thing, after spending 6 to 7 months at home I was tired and exhausted that we aren't be able to move outside. I want to spend some time with friends as we wouldn't meet during the pandemic situation and studied for 2 semesters at home.

After all that process, do you value your health more?

Yes, I have learned a lot of lessons and things during the pandemic. I have seen most people lose their loved ones in the pandemic and this is a loss that no one can compensate this. I value my family and friends' health more as we can't live without our loved ones. So, I urge my family and friends to participate in healthy activities so that their health will be maintained.

They can't get suffered from anything like COVID-19. I started guiding my family, friends, and neighbors to focus on their health, eat healthy foods, do exercise regularly, and do various physical activities that will keep them active and healthy.

Did the pandemic impact your finances positively or negatively? How did you cope?

The best thing during the pandemic was I started working on steemit and that was the first time in my life I was earning and helping out my family too. As we live in the village, we didn't face financial issues much as people living in urban areas. I was earning through steemit and paying my fees through these posts' payout. I am glad that we didn't face financial issues and Allah bless our family during the pandemic situation.

Conclusion

In the last, there are many ups and downs in our life but the best thing is we have to cope with them with courage and wisdom. The pandemic was a down phase for the whole world but we try to stable our life through teamwork and unity.

I would like to invite my friends @lavanyalakshman, @m-fdo, @uzma4882, @drhira, and @faran-nabeel to share their participation and share their learning during a pandemic. Best of luck to all.
