Take a look at the graph above. This graph shows the effect of COVID-19 cases with and without intervention. The first thing to look at is the dotted line in the middle which represent the Capacity of Healthcare System. This basically means that once the graph crosses the dotted line, there are not enough beds in a hospital to treat the patients. This dotted line stays the same unless new hospitals and doctors to treat the patients are increased. The purple section represents the worst state like in Italy. Basically each and every one of us in the society have to be cautious and work together to further prevent the growth of COVID-19 cases. If we don't take measures to slow the rate of COVID-19, the curve rises rapidly. This means that the number of patients increases in an unbelievable rate. Once this happens and crosses the dotted line, there are not enough hospitals to take in the patients. This causes unnecessary deaths because people who actually need serious medical att...

COVID-19 or rather known by its simpler name "corona virus" is a pandemic which emerged in Wuhan, China in the beginning of 2020. You may be wondering what the fuss is all about. Is this virus/disease really dangerous, and do we have to worry about it? Simple answer, Yes. COVID-19 has similar symptoms to pneumonia. When a patient is infected, the patient could experience cough, tiredness, fever (of over 37.5), and difficulty breathing. Te infection and the spread throughout the body happens all in matter of a few days. Once the virus had taken over the respiratory system, the tiny sacs in your lungs called "alveoli" start to fill up with fluid causing the difficulty of breathing. However, that is not the whole story. What makes COVID-19 so deadly is how easily the virus can spread. The virus spreads through social interactions which include talking, or just walking beside other people. The virus gets passed on through coughing. Once the virus is let out from th...

Why do we go to university? It's probably because you want that diploma. But why do we get that diploma? When we ask this question, most opinions split into a bunch of directions. I personally believe that diploma is just an "insurance" so that you don't fall into the bottom of society. Recruiters use diploma as a way to check the student's educational background. It's basically a ticket into society. The level of college and diploma is just a status. Students with higher status have higher chance of getting a good job, on the other hand, the choices are a little more limited when it comes to the lower status students. If we think about it, diplomas are just status for self promotion and nothing else.
