The Role of Youth as an Essential part of this Democratic Country in the Fight Against Covid-

19

Role is a set of connected behaviors, rights, obligations, beliefs , and norms as

conceptualized by people in a social situation (Wikipedia). Youth is the time of life when one is

young, and often means the time between childhood and adulthood (Wikipedia). Coronavirus

disease (COVID-19) is an infectious disease caused by a newly discovered coronavirus. Older

people, and those with underlying medical problems like cardiovascular disease, diabetes,

chronic respiratory disease, and cancer are more likely to develop serious illness. In late

December 2019, a novel coronavirus disease(COVID-19; previously known as 2019-nCoV) was

reported to spread from Wuhan, China that eventually affected 26 countries worldwide. It is a

person-to-person transmission however, it is still not proven to come from an asymptomatic

carrier with normal chest computed tomography findings. As of writing, there are already around

300,000 confirmed cases, around 10,000 deaths and almost 10000 recovered. (World Health

Organization, 2020). As we all know every youth has a role to do in our society. Today, we’re

having a Pandemic Crisis that called Covid-19.

The Role of the Youth to fight against Covid-19 is to have discipline. Youths need to

do what government said to fight having Covid-19, they need to be a good example to other

people, like if other people see them that they follow the government orders, then others will

follow them too, most likely to those who age is lower than them. Today we need to be Health

Conscious , we need to boost our immune system in order for us to keep in the virus. There are

many ways on how we fight the Covid-19 First, we need to wash our hands every hour for

about 30 seconds or after singing Happy Birthday 3 times. Second, always use facemask if you

have common colds to prevent in from spreading in your love ones. Third, always stay indoors.

Don’t go out in your house if not needed that’s why we have quarantine pass one person in an

household. And Lastly, if you feel that you have the symptoms of having the virus, isolate your

self and call for DOH hotline for further actions. As a youth I will be the one who will guide the

elders or adults and children for taking care of them selves to prevent and fight the Covid-19.

Amidst the global crisis of COVID-19, the spread of misinformation is still rampant. Fake news

like this instills terror among people especially with the limitation to go outside to see the wider

environment. Moreover, it catalyzes the panic that is already present within the community. As

a youth to prevent the panic about the pandemic don’t share any information in social media

that are not officially stated. With a very controversial line-up of government in the Philippines,

Filipinos often tend to channel their anxiety to the external locus of control. The validity is

unsure, however, respondents provided well-explained responses regarding this issue. First one

is the incompetence of leaders. Since the outbreak of COVID-19, it took the Philippine

government much time to prevent the spread compared to other countries. As a Youth don’t

criticize government about the lockdown they’re just want to protect us from the virus.

Conclusion

The Role of the Youth as an Essential part of the Democratic Country in the fight

against Covid-19 is just we need to obey what the government will order to prevent the

spreading and to fight the covid-19 in the Philippines, and to have the discipline and knowledge

about the Pandemic Crisis.
