Baap re! Padhke hi darr lag raha hai. Aaj bhi hum usi haal me hai sirf beemari alag hai aur vaccine nahi nikli.
To agar small pox se bahot log marte the to film shoots band hua hoga kyunki city me social distance to shaayad raha hi hoga kyunki small pox contagious tha chicken pox se khatarnaak. To vo shoots kitne dinon tak band tha? Yaha to sab shoots band hai aur pata nahi kab tak rahega.
Uss waqt na advanced technology, na internet, na advanced treatment thi aaj ki tarah. Aaj ye sab hai fir bhi sanki haalat bahot kharab hai. Soch ke darr lagta hai ki jo sab tumne describe kiya uss waqt logon me kitna darr hoga.
I hope jaldi kuch vaccine aa haaye isse pehle condition aur bigaad jaaye. Your country having no lockdown. Aur lockdown hai fir bhi kuch log follow nahi karte aur kuch log ise planning se barbaad karte hai. Mujhe kisine kaha ki vaha Easter me log shopping gaye aur relatives se milne gaye the. Aur vaha abhi log beaches pe jaate hai. Yaha to tests kam ho rahe hai aur population bahot hai. Yaha 132 cr aur US me 32 cr.
What I narrated was the story of , let say around,....1966-72 somewhere ....population was pretty low, there were no trash cans anywhere,.. ppl were spitting a big lumps of " nose and throat cleaning lumps " everywhere in hard heated, mid summer school vacation, in the street whereever you play, the bees were in tons at every 5 feet, sitting in 100s on such things,....... Chai ki laari waale bhi chai ke kuchche ( residue ) khulle mein hi daalte,... everywhere just bees bees and bees,... baraf ke gole ki laari par at least 600-700+ bees everywhere,...... ! Sherdi ke sanche per 1000s of them,.... Cholera and diptheria had its peak time,...
Small pox / Chicken pox, Baliya, Sheetla,.. they all were from the same family ( just like these diff. Flues ) ,.. but Sheetala ( ppl were going to its religious places like sheetala maata, Baliya baapa,... and you know in month of holy Shravan, " Sheetala saatam " - a day before Krishna's B-Day ( Gokul asthami - was having a purposeful religious day to pray that goddess to save from Sheetala _ peopel were eating cold foods and no Chulha was allowed on that day, religiously ) was the most wildest and life-taker among all those,.. others just may or may not be that scary,... many times curable with some long timer marks left on body, skin and face,...,......
Somewhere in 1973 around Govt took full control over Sheetala and wiped it out totally from the root, gaining a big victory over it,. and I guess during 1972-73 they declared a reward if you could find and table them, any case with proof,..
Thx to da technology and science,...... n' Pray,... they will overcome w/ this Covid baby too, with a complete victory,.. ! May energy be with us,..... God bless all,......
