The Covid-19 pandemic has emerged as a serious threat to our health, economy and social life, which gets minimized substantially by simply wearing a mask at workplaces and in public spaces. This small piece of clothing has the ability to potentially save our lives, jobs and the economy.

In offices, which are enclosed spaces, the practice of wearing masks becomes particularly important. It boosts the confidence of employees and assures them that their workplace is safe, resulting in higher work productivity.

Five months into 2020 and thanks to Covid-19 the India economy is in a catastrophic tailspin. The novel coronavirus can cause severe respiratory problems and in more complicated cases, prove to be fatal; unfortunately, the disease has affected economies similarly. Most sectors have been adversely affected by the pandemic and are in distressed situations, unsure of their survival, at least in the short term. While sectors like travel and tourism, and hospitality have taken a major hit, others such as automobiles, oil and gas, industrial tools, etc., are barely scraping through.

The Covid-19 pandemic has brought to heel the most powerful nations in the world and ground life to a standstill. India too is currently in Lockdown 4.0 and struggling to combat the spread of the virus. However, sooner or later, a vaccine or cure will be found, and life as we know it will go back to what it was, or should it? Surely, Covid-19 is not the last pandemic in human history. Every hour there is a new development in technology, similar upgrades are also required for our mental, physical, and ethical well-being. Are we progressing or are we regressing?

As a by-product of the Covid-19 pandemic and infodemic, we are confronted with a battle against untamed emotions.
