Hello friends, how are you doing? I hope everything is well.
Like the name implies..Lockdown is when individuals or someone is held in a location for a lengthy period of time for their safety. They are not permitted to move out unless a command is issued to contradict that. If somebody is proven guilty of moving out without an order it might even lead to punishment.
I have encountered two lockout during my life time.
1st lockdown experience
I can recall what prompted the first shutdown was a sickness called Ebola. I was still in secondary school with the outbreak of the sickness. I certainly didn't grasp what was actually occurring since I was much younger but what I would understand was that everyone was talking about the sickness and how horrible it was.
The government instructed all the schools to shut and I can clearly recall my school closed for nearly a month. Then we began hearing reports about bathing salt and water. I never tried it since some people thought it was detrimental to their health.
The first lockdown wasn't worst as the second one since we still had to go outside to buy foodstuffs to cook but we weren't attending school because the sickness was highly transferred and it was an airborne disease.
2nd Lockdown
This was the worst lockdown I had ever experienced. The disease that caused the lockdown was termed Coronavirus. This sickness afflicted the world.
It was in 2020 when I just got into university, i just began school and barely two months later the government requested all the schools to shut down due to the fast growth in disease. The lockdown began in march. We initially expected it would be like the Ebola time that will run for around 1 month but to our amazement the lockdown extended for 6 months. People from other nations were not permitted here and same with us going into another country, therefore they abolished inter-state traveling. It was really a hard time for us since you have to be stranded everywhere you are still everything because alright. It harmed Churches,market, super market even companies folded up for the inability to pay. This lockdown didn't just affect people but the economy of the globe.

That year I haven't begin any freelancing job online. All I did was to sleep and eat. It was even hard to eat since no place to purchase food, no money. The state authorities only open certain super market for few days then they shut it down. And in those few days the place will be filled up considerably there owing to everyone seeking to get food stuffs.
I will never desire to pray for another lockdown. It harmed the economy, family and even personal mental health. Many lost their jobs, many killed and a lot of negative things that come with lockdown.
In as much as I prefer being inside I won't be able to survive another lockdown even for a week. If I chose to remain inside I know I made that decision but being indoors as an order and everything shut down I don't desire for again.
