What sort of a society will we inherit from the covid-19 pandemic?
1.We will emerge a society with a much higher level of distrust.
2. We will have a much better sense of whom we can count on in times of need, and who our true friends are
3 we have all suddenly been exposed to the randomness of the universe, what philosopher-writer Albert Camus called the “absurdity of existence". A direct result of this will be more religiosity
4. Once the lockdown lifts and our helps return to our homes again, we will respect them much more. The same for sanitation workers and other people whom many of us rarely paid attention to.
5. We may actually emerge as a kinder and gentler society. After all, if we have failed to notice that a virus does not distinguish between a Hollywood star and a slum dweller, and if that has not made us slightly more humble, then we may have failed as a species
