How to stay relative with the pandemic spreading worldwide?

While it is true that the Coronavirus is bankrupting more people than ever before. But it has even greatly affected the way we perform our daily activities. With thousands of affected people and mostly recovering. There is a hidden call to something that we all might be missing. All this has happened so suddenly that we have no other option than doing what is necessary and within our reach.

Remote Work

More people than before this decade have started to work remotely with great examples like Google, Microsoft, Alphabet, IBM, and so on. Companies have asked their employees to work remotely as they can no longer bear the expense of holidays due to COVID-19 lockdown in many countries worldwide.

This might prove to be the best opportunity for freelancers and people already working from home to show their full potential. COVID-19 shows clearly that the jobs economy is dead and to go further you need to adapt to the skills economy. You need to give results not just work.

Education On-The-Go (Distance Learning)

With students worried about their futures and universities trying to minimize the time loss, universities have come up with virtual classes. This shows how universities are ready to tackle the issue. It means that no time lost traveling.

Digital Currency

As the COVID-19 spreads through traditional payment methods that involve manually handling paper cash, checks, coins, and cards, Consumers' desire for all forms of contactless payment is ramping up from cryptocurrency to NFC payment(mobile swipe). COVID-19 dirties up all your money in hand so don't ever hold your money in hand. Some banks are heating money, others quarantining it for 7-14 days and some even destroying it. Plastic credit cards are no longer a viable option.

Robots

Yes, you have read it right. We need more robots throughout the industry to handle our work from manufacturing to services to deliver our products to homes. But isn't what's the Tesla, Amazon and other big names are working for? They are working but the demand for it just rising every single day.

Online Stores

Almost all offline stores now have close to zero business due to lockdown. What is the requirement for today's economy then? That's what the COVID-19 is here for. It's forcing every business out there to go online and automate the process as all offline businesses have zero sales.

Eco-friendly Environment

While there is a partial to complete lockdown in most countries, the ozone layer is self-healing due to a wholesome reduction in global pollution. China which was responsible for about thirty percent (30%) of the global pollution has gone on lockdown since January and the world has seen a great twenty-five percent decrease in pollution level.

What should we do now? Sit back and work hard! That's it for the COVID-19 effects. If you know something I may have missed then comment down below and do let me know!
