This is my protest #forabolsonaro

Probably you heard about what is happening in Brazil.

Yeah, it's chaotic. We got the biggest healthcare system ever, it's a worldwide reference (find out about our SUS system here on Wikipedia). We could vaccinate more people than we are vaccinating right now. We had all the weapons to be the country that better deal with the pandemic.

However, Bolsonaro happens.

Jair Bolsonaro's government ignored vaccines more than ten times (read about it here by Global News). I'm not kidding. The government also made advertisements to encourage people to not accomplish social distancing (the social media campaign "Brazil's can't stop"). Our state governments are constantly fighting against the feds because they want to do lockdowns. However, Bolsonaro is doing everything he can to avoid state governments making it. Bolsonaro even manifesting himself against mask use.

Brazil is well-known for its diplomacy. However, Bolsonaro's government accomplish to ruin it. China is one of our most important business partners. Seems like Bolsonaro doesn't mind about it because he, his employees, and his family made so many xenophobic comments that our country found issues to deal with public health. It made it hard to negotiate with China, which sends us supplies to take care of the health of our people (Read about that xenophobia here by CNN). This situation made a huge crisis in the public healthcare system in Manaus, a city in the Amazonas' state. People literally had suffocated to death (read about it on Washington Post).

Man, I'm not kidding. Manaus got 76% of its population infected by the Corona Virus. The result of it? A new variant of the virus.

"But, girl, why your crazy President is doing such a crazy thing?" Oh, dear gringo (gringo it's a Brazilian slang used to refer to foreign people) I'll tell you why he is doing it.

A few months ago, research was made by a Brazilian university. This research was truly pointing that Bolsonaro's plan was making the Brazilian population got immunity by natural infection to Coronavirus. That's why he was made, and it's still doing, the possible and the impossible to get my people exposed to the virus. You can find out more details about it in the link I left at the end of this text.

Deaths? Oh, who needed to die will die, dear. The government has planned 1.4 million deaths in Brazil. We're reached 450.000. Have you got the idea that, for the Brazilian government, they're still far away from their goal?

This is a trending topic on Twitter saying "Get out Genocidal Bolsonaro"

I'm not kidding, fella. We were capable to be one of the firsts countries to start vaccinating. Do you understand that there buried people who could be with their families now? Do you understand how many children would still have parents?

The people who are dying now shouldn't be dying. They could be safe. They could be saved.

But today, I'm a proud Brazilian.

My people arouse to defend and fight for our homeland and for our people. Protests all around the country were made yesterday to put down this genocidal president. We want vaccines. We want our loved ones safe. We want a fair leader.

I know you're probably was vaccinated. I mean, where are you from? The USA? The United Kingdom? Canada? India? Japan? Australia? Who knows?

I know you're probably don't mind about a South American emergent country. You're probably vaccinated and safe and sound. My people are not. We're still living as if there's no vaccine at all. I envy you, I really do. I just want my life back. I just want to feel safe again.

Thousand of people are dying here. I could be the next, and if I was, no one would care. This is how things are now: I would be just a number. Just one more in 450 thousand deaths, just one more person who died without assistance. Without help.

Brazil is lonely now. We usually said that our flag was kidnapped by bolsonarists, but no. There's no just our flag: Our people were kidnapped by a psycho.

And we know that no one will rescue us.

You guys know me by Pretoria, the fic writer. Today, I was simply Jeanny, a 22 years old Brazilian who wants to be saved, and this is my manifest for better days.

2021 / 15

Aperçu of the Week:

Democracy is the worst form of government, except for all the others. (Winston Churchill)

Bad News of the Week:

On Friday, I got a message from my kids' school: there will be distance learning again next week, because the 7-day incidence is higher than 100. No surprise there, as the numbers have been steadily rising over the past few days. The surprise is in a side sentence. There it is mentioned that the school directors assume that until the end of the school year - that is with us in Bavaria at the end of July! - no more normal presence school might take place, but distance and shift learning in the change.

Wait a minute! We will all be vaccinated soon. And are tested twice a week. And it's getting warmer. Our sacrifices have to be worthwhile somehow. Are we losing confidence? Likewise, I read the day before yesterday that immunologists believe a booster vaccination will be needed in the fall. And then more vaccinations every year. Because the virus will continue to mutate, it's in its nature. And the new mutation from India seems to be somewhat immune to the current vaccines.

Wait a minute. Shouldn't the nightmare be over at some point? Shouldn't we have reached herd immunity by late summer? Shouldn't the pandemic be under control? The answer is simple: the pandemic will eventually be over. But not the presence of the coronavirus and its ever-expanding family. According to Wikipedia, a pandemic is defined as follows: "A pandemic is an epidemic of an infectious disease that has spread across a large region, for instance multiple continents or worldwide, affecting a substantial number of people." But how far does a virus mutation have to be from its progenitor to be considered a new virus? After all, we are currently battling "SARS-CoV-2." So there was already a SARS-CoV-1, in 2002 and 2003 to be precise, and this ancestor was also classified as a pandemic by the WHO. Is this never going to stop?

No. It's not going to stop. Neither the presence of the current coronavirus, because our poor handling of it allows it to survive. Nor can we rule out the outbreak of SARS-CoV-3 (or whatever its name will be), since our way of life - and we're not just talking about China here - not only favors but virtually forces the infestation of humanity by viruses from the animal kingdom. We will probably have to live with it. In the long term. The meaning of normality must be redefined. That's not bad news. That's plain and simply bad.

Good News of the Week:

Germany's conservatives have always been divided into two parties. In Bavaria there is the CSU (Christian Social Union), in the other (first 9, after reunification 15) federal states the CDU (Christian Democratic Union). At the federal level, there has always been closest cooperation possible. In parliament by means of a parliamentary group, in government by means of a coalition. Obviously a recipe for success, the CDU/CSU has been the chancellor in 15 of the 22 federal governments since the founding of the Federal Republic of Germany. At the end of September this year, the 4th legislative period with Chancellor Angela Merkel will come to an end. And she will not run again. So the Union needs a new candidate for chancellor. So far, the Union sent 17 chancellor candidates from the CDU and 2 from the CSU into the race. The CDU was successful in 15 of 17 cases, the CSU in 0 of 2. So all clear for the upcoming nomination of the Union's candidate for chancellor? No.

There has been a power struggle in the CDU/CSU for a week now. The CDU's candidate is Armin Laschet, a moderately successful politician who is currently minister president in North Rhine-Westphalia. He has struggled to reach the top of the party and is seen as a suitable candidate for chancellor by only 17% of the conservative voter base. The CSU's candidate is Markus Söder, a classic power politician on a steady path to success who is currently the Minister President of Bavaria. He became party chairman as a self-runner and is seen as a suitable candidate for chancellor by 72% of the conservative voter base. So all clear for the upcoming nomination of the Union's candidate for chancellor? No.

Laschet announced last Sunday that he would be available as a candidate, of course. Last Monday he got the support of the presidium and executive committee of the CDU and assumed that, as the candidate of the larger of the two sister parties, he would have a "right of access" to the official candidacy. Söder also announced last Sunday that he would be available as a candidate. Won the support of the presidium and executive committee of the CSU last Monday and assumed to have a real chance as an option clearly leading in the polls. A parliamentary group meeting on Tuesday was not officially responsible, but important for a "mood picture" - after all, the prospect of individual members of the Bundestag retaining their seats also depends on the pulling power of the top candidate. The result was probably inconclusive. Surprising, considering that the clear majority belongs to the CDU.

In recent days, there have been endorsements and criticism from both camps. Many in the media are talking about a hanging game, which would not be good. Not for Germany, not for Europe and not for the world. Why, actually? After all, politics works like this: a politician tries to organize a majority for himself as a person or for his program. In order to take responsibility and implement what he stands for. A competition of ideas and positions. Democracy at work. It's nice that there's still room for this even in such difficult times. Now all that remains is to put a theory into practice: that the better man may win. Actually, it's quite simple.

Personal happy Moment of the Week:

Easter is the most important time in Christianity. Palm Sunday is also a part of it. On this day, palm bouquets, bound palm catkins from a willow tree, are blessed in church. Then you keep them at home for two weeks as a decorative messenger of springtime and then throw them away, when their life force vanishes. It's stupid because you're ripping out an early bloomer that's important for botany. So I had mixed feelings when a little willow seedling came into our house. Traditional and pretty, yes. But probably soon - like its Christmas counterpart, the poinsettia - in the organic waste garbage can. But our spring greeting has decided to survive: for a few days now it has been sprouting strong, fresh green. A vital sign of life energy. And encouraging, especially in these difficult times. Thank you, dear nature!

As I write this...

...I'm still in my pyjamas. There's nothing better than whiling away a Sunday cozy at home when it's uncomfortably cold and damp outside.

Tenet (2020) Full Movie Download In Hindi - Dual Audio

Tenet's expectation is so high that a few displays have been completely booked -- the limitation that they are allowed to anyhow, with a 50 percent cap. Being in an indoor AC environment where social distancing guidelines are useless and with strangers that might take their masks off to drink and eat poses a significant risk, as we've discussed before.

Tenet (2020) Flim wikipedia

Director: Christopher Nolan Genre(s): Action, Sci-Fi, Drama, Thriller Rating: PG-13 Runtime: 150 min

Click Here To Download 720p

Click Here To Download 480p

Starring: Aaron Taylor-Johnson, Andrew Howard, Carina Velva, Clémence Poésy, Denzil Smith, Dimple Kapadia, Elizabeth Debicki, Fiona Dourif, Himesh Patel, Ivo Uukkivi, Jefferson Hall, John David Washington, Jonathan Camp, Juhan Ulfsak, Kenneth Branagh, Laurie Shepherd, Mark Krenik, Martin Donovan, Michael Caine, Rich Ceraulo, Robert Pattinson, Wes Chatham, Yuri Kolokolnikov

And it would be best if you did not risk getting COVID (and giving it to other people ) to see a film. Especially now that Tenet's Blu-ray and digital release on international platforms is less than two weeks off. You will indeed need to pay more, although not obtaining COVID is priceless.

Not every film requires the bending of time and space. However, even as he ends up a regular run-of-the-mill James Bond-ish thriller, Christopher Nolan can not withstand the temptation. One of them even goes on to add, "Just feel it." However, even that is difficult to do when the narrative (written by Nolan) is trotting out such an assembly line of ordinaries -- the damsel in distress who is British so Lord's daughter and looks every inch of it (though there aren't many inches on the spindly thin and wasted Debicki); the Russian oligarch from nowhere who will prove to have a"Plutonium 241" links and madman ambitions (Branagh, chewing as standard to the role); along with a typical American/CIA bloke (Washington, lacking the charm to make it worthwhile) who'll save the planet with some"cowboy shit."

Tenet 2020 Full Movie Download In Hindi Google Drive filmyzilla

Equipped with only one word - Tenet - and fighting for the survival of the whole Earth, the Protagonist (John David Washington) journeys through a twilight world of global espionage on a mission that could unfold in something past real-time—not time traveling.

Inversion "Tenet" wastes no time, falling viewers to an attack on Kyiv's symphony operation and hardly allowing anybody to become oriented. Our hero is caught from the enemy, tortured, and also takes a cyanide capsule, as he was ordered to do in training. He resides, and his allegiance to the system and his orders contributes to the promotion of sorts. This top-secret mission involves a new technology that can rewrite human history.

For transparency's sake, it feels important to say that this film was screened for the local press in Chicago with extreme precautions that won't be in place for most ticket buyers for weeks, including 1% capacity of a massive, sanitized theatre first thing in the morning. The purpose of this review is not to encourage or discourage anyone from attending a theatrical screening at this particular moment.

It's an investigation of the work itself for posterity. From precisely what is where Tenet (note the palindrome of this name ) takes its biggest tumble, tying itself up in many knots going forwards-backward, backward-forwards that it has to mention"joining up of loose ends" more than once. From what a scientist (another light and thin presence in the form of Clemence Poesy) pops up briefly to explain, in the future, a technology that"inverts that the entropy of stuff," a sort of"inverse radiation from nuclear fission," has been invented. It has been turning up in the shape of bullets, for example, which aren't fired but seized back once you pull the trigger.

Tenet's conceit is that this, somehow (don't ask how), makes the vicious monster who is manipulating the past by coming back in the future more dangerous for humanity's existence than"a nuclear disaster."

Tenet has come to India. Over three months since its global premiere, Christopher Nolan's most up-to-date film will finally roll to Indian cinemas this week. Thank you, COVID-19.

The IMAX experience is only available in English, though. Tenet is much more unique for Nolan lovers in India since it had been shot in India and stars a few veteran Indian celebrities. But due to the ongoing coronavirus pandemic, we have been unable to see what Nolan does with Mumbai. And now, it is a gamble.

Sundance Festival Preview

Hello, my name is Breanna, I am a transfer student at Eckerd and considered a sophomore. My major is marine science and I live in Saint Petersburg with my cat Katana. I’m from Lancaster PA and this is my first year living in Florida and attending Eckerd college.

Every year the Sundance film festival shows a handful of films from the thousands of submissions it gets and shows the selected films over a ten-day period. This year I purchased tickets to five films and I’m going to tell you a little about them.

My first film for Sundance is In the Earth. It’s about a scientist and a park scout who go into the woods during a disastrous virus. I chose this film because I like horror movies. I thought it was interesting that the virus seemed to be a background event compared to the equipment check in the woods that goes wrong. I’m curious to see how this film plays out.

The second film I chose for Sundance is In the Same Breath. It’s about how the Chinese government turned the pandemic cover-ups in Wuhan into a triumph for the communist party. I chose this film because it’s about the current COVID virus. It will be reporting about firsthand accounts of the coronavirus and how patriotism shaped the course of the outbreak. I thought this was interesting because there has been a lot of talk and conspiracy theories going around about China and its possible COVID coverups.

My third chosen film is The Pink Cloud it’s about a mysterious and deadly pink cloud that forces everyone to stay home. It follows the lives of Yago and Giovana as they try to live and deal with the unprecedented times. I chose this film because it seemed relatable to the current situation of a lot of people right now. The idea of us facing a deadly pink cloud rather than an invisible virus sounded like a fun change of pace for me.

My fourth chosen film is Writing with Fire. In this film it follows the only newspaper run by a Dalit woman in India. Its shows the women dealing with being in the confines of their own home and undoubtedly facing prejudices from their opposition and those who would demean them. I picked this film as one of my five because I wanted to see a movie that dealt with the inner problems of a country that wasn’t the US. I also want to see how these women overcome their obstacles to run their newspaper business.

The last and fifth film I chose is Users. This film attempts to tackle the question on a lot of parent’s minds when raising their children in the 21stcentury. This is the question of “Will my children love technology more than me?”. The film explores the life of a mother who raises her children with the help of technology. She wonders if her children will love the perfect machines over their imperfect mother. I’m interested in this film because I too, have questions and concerns about young children and their parents relying too much on technology to raise their kids. I think this movie will definitely capture my attention and the attention of others.

There were many other films that I was interested in watching but two of them are The Blazing World and Playing with Sharks. The Blazing world is about a woman who finds her sister still alive in an alternate dimension. I liked it because I’m a fan of the multiverse theory and I love seeing people’s different takes of different dimensions. The second film, Playing with Sharks is about a woman who covers herself in chainmail to play with sharks and use herself as bait for movies and research. This film seemed interesting because who wouldn’t like to watch someone commit a daring shark tug-o-war with their own bodies for science and other films.

After picking my film list the themes of “relatable” and “current events” become apparent. I wasn’t aiming to make my list fit these themes it just happened to be what they were about. In case anyone else happens to be interested in attending the screening for these films I have added the Sundance film schedule as well as a Wikipedia link to more information about the film The Blazing World.

The Shocking Events of 2020

Many believe that 2020 has been the worst or the cursed year, the most terrible in the history of human civilization. Natural disasters continued in various parts of the globe, further leading to an increase in the bloodbath. The COVID-19 pandemic, that shook the world with the sudden fall of the economy, major industries shut down, loss of jobs, and much more. However, some shocking events took place in the year 2020.

This blog takes you all to have a quick glance at those never-expected incidents of 2020.

Bushfire in Australia

The year 2020 began with a horrible bushfire in Australia that killed or dislodged 300 crore animals. NSW premier Gladys Berejiklian called out the third state of emergency on 2nd January after months of continuous blazing. The deadly fire had made cities evacuate and burned millions of acres. Almost, one billion animals are believed to have died and more than 100 species needed “emergency intervention” to survive.

Covid-19 pandemic

Then came the Covid-19 pandemic that tainted about 30 million individuals and slaughtered almost 10 lakhs overall, according to India Today. The Chinese branch of the World Health Organisation was notified of the novel coronavirus and the symptoms, although the cases were being reported as early as November 2019, who then referred as nCoV on January 7. The pandemic is believed to have begun spreading from the city of Wuhan, located in the Hubei province of China. The nation reported its first death on January 11 from the novel corona virus. One of the most shocking events of 2020 that almost traumatised us.

A Ukrainian flight crash in Tehran

Soon after Iran launched an attack on US troops stationed at Iraqi military bases, on January 8; Ukraine International Airlines Flight 752 was crashed in Tehran, Iran, on the same day; killing more than 176 people on board. Iran later asserted the obligation regarding the incident, saying in a statement that the plane was shot down after it was mistaken for a threat.

Death of Kobe Bryant

NBA legend Kobe Bryant with his 13-year-old daughter Gianna and seven other passengers were killed when the helicopter crashed in Calabasas, California, on January 26. They were on their way to a game at Bryant’s sporting facility Mamba Academy via private helicopter. The report says that the helicopter flew in extreme foggy weather, even when the Los Angeles Police Department grounded its flights.

The UK withdraws from the EU

After more than 3 years of deliberation and political tumult, the UK finally left the EU at the end of January. The move received mixed response as there were celebrations and protest across the country, this news itself was one of the most shocking events of 2020 that not only bizarre the citizen of the UK or the EU but also the world. But British Prime Minister Boris Johnson sent a video message at that time, “The most important thing to say tonight is that this is not an end but a beginning, it is a moment of real national renewal and change”

Italy: 1st country to implement nationwide lockdown

Italy’s Prime Minister Giuseppe Conte declared a nationwide lockdown in the country. The announcement came after Italy had become the second-worst hit country by the virus besides China, while other countries like Japan, the US, South Korea, Taiwan ranked below China. While the US declared a national emergency on March 13.

Indian Prime Minister Narendra Modi announced a national lockdown on 25th March for 21 days initially and then got extended for 2 months with the rise in the number of corona-affected cases.

Tokyo Olympics postponed

One of the highly expected sporting events of the year-the 2020 Summer Olympics-that was to take place at the end of July, 2020 in Tokyo, Japan, postponed on March 24 due to the Covid-19 pandemic. The International Olympic Committee later ann0unced, that the event will be happening post-July, 2021.

US alone has highest number of corona affected patients

The US, especially New York state alone had more coronavirus cases than any other country worldwide on 9th April with over 160,000 infected people, out of which 7,000 people were dead.

Skirmishes between India and China

Since 5 May 2020, Chinese and Indian soldiers have engaged with forceful scuffle, face-offs, and skirmishes. In late May, Chinese forces had a problem with Indian street development in the Galwan River valley. As indicated by Indian sources, melee fighting on 15/16 June 2020 brought about the passing of 20 Indian warriors including an official.

India bans Chinese mobile app

The government of India banned almost all the Chinese app slowing, starting from June under section 69A of the Information Technology Act. This action was taken based on the inputs regarding these apps for engaging in activities that are prejudicial to sovereignty and integrity of India, defense of India, the security of the state, and public order.

Worldwide Chaos due to Pandemic

The global corona virus case began increasing and the lockdown or curfew yet continued in some nations. Few industries saw a major fall in the market. They had to shut down their permanently settled business. Economies around the globe disintegrated, job losses, and people had to shift their business or think of another medium to earn their bread. Some organization shifted WFH (Work From Home) with a little bit of cut down on the wages. The world is yet in shock with the pandemic and still waiting for a day to become corona-free.

Beirut Explosion

While the world battled with various organic and natural disasters, human-blunder led a lethal blast that shook Beirut’s port. A large amount of ammonium nitrate, that was stored at Beirut port, the capital of Lebanon, exploded. This led to the death of 204; injuring 7,500 and causing property damage of US$15 billion; leaving approx. 300,000 homeless people. As per Wikipedia, the devastating explosion is considered one of the most powerful non-nuclear explosions in history and also the shocking events of 2020.

COVID-19’s Third Wave

Since the pandemic was in waves, the third wave of Covid-19 escalated in November, when the cases began to surge. By the end of November, worldwide cases took off to 60 million. Since then, cases have moved upward, driving the governments worldwide to enforce social distancing prerequisites for the winter holiday season. When would we get freedom from this shocking event?

Worldwide Vaccination Effort Kicks Off

In the recent news, Pfizer made waves when it declared that it was rolling out a 95% successful COVID-19 vaccination. Followed by Moderna, at 94.5% in mid-November. As the worldwide global race escalates, the challenges still exist. People’s perception towards safety vaccine has dropped significantly, which may yet complicate the global economy.

With such a devastating ride in 2020, many people are wondering what will 2021 have in store. The economy will be the focus for the coming year with the vaccination taking the center stage. CoVID-19 has certainly changed the course of human life, some of the physical businesses will slowly resume back with the travel and tourism industry taking the initial stand. Even though there was a spike in unemployment, the emergence of new businesses saw an opportunity.

How fair will 2021 be?

Will things get back to normal?

Still, a question that hangs around with many twists and turns.

La corona senza re - La fotografia contemporanea ai tempi del coronavirus.

Credo nei prossimi cinque minuti.

Credo nella storia dei miei piedi.

Credo nell’emicrania, nella noia dei pomeriggi, nella paura dei calendari, nella perfidia degli orologi.

Credo nell’ansia, nella psicosi, nella disperazione.

Credo nell’alcolismo, nelle malattie veneree, nella febbre e nell’esaurimento.

Credo nel dolore.

Credo nella disperazione.

Credo in tutti i bambini.

Credo nelle mappe, nei diagrammi, nei codici, negli scacchi, nei puzzle, negli orari aerei, nelle segnalazione d’aereoporto.

Credo a tutti i pretesti.

Credo a tutte le ragioni.

Credo a tutte le allucinazioni.

Credo a tutta la rabbia. Credo a tutte le mitologie, ricordi, bugie,fantasie,evasioni.

Credo nel mistero e nella malinconia di una mano, nella gentilezza degli alberi, nella saggezza della luce.

“Ciò in cui credo” di James G.Ballard

Credo che in questi mesi, quando il Covid-19 é “entrato” di prepotenza nel nostro “quotidiano”, nel nostro linguaggio e con esso nel nostro modo di comunicare, la fotografia si è fatta portavoce del nostro nuovo modo di vivere. Inaspettatamente qualcosa si è interrotto, c’è stato come dire un’interferenza ed è proprio ciò che comporta il Virus.

Il coronavirus ha mutato principalmente il nostro modo di rapportarci alle cose, alle persone ed al tempo.

Si è raccontato qui su FORO imàge, come in altre piattaforme del rapporto della fotografia e del vivere dentro, barricati in casa e/o più semplicemente la interpretazione del virus stesso.

Questo articolo non vuole affrontare nuovamente le percezioni vissute durante il lockdown, quanto dell’atteggiamento della fotografia contemporanea nell’era del coronavirus.

Si potrebbe dire che la fotografia sia tornata ad essere più arte ed allo stesso tempo ha assunto un atteggiamento più scientifico. Un’attenzione verso la percezione del vissuto, al reale e con esso annesso anche la parte più umana, l’immaginazione, come evasione proiettata verso la natura, che per diversi mesi era stata negata.

La fotografia si è resa ancora una volta più democratica, incoraggiando un pò tutti ad essere fotografi-artisti, accrescendo così quel concetto rivisato da Fontcuberta <<fotografo, dunque sono>>.

Volgarmente potrei affermare che siamo stati tutti un pò Nièpce, ovvero degli scrutatori, con le fotocamere, di quel mondo dalla finestra; che si é fatta “corpo” di speranze e di senso di patriottismo.

Ma la fotografia oltre ad essere stata una fedele compagna per ingannare il tempo, ha comunque mantenuto il suo stato scientifico e divulgativo.

Si parla tanto di questo virus tacito ed invisibile eppure la fotografia è stata l’unica capace e leale a renderci edotti dell’essenza e della forma di questo nostro nemico.

Tornando al “credo”, credo che quanto più “oggi” la fotografia sia tornata al suo principio di rappresentare la realtà, documentando l’aspetto amaro, disastroso e disperato che questo maledetto Covid-19 porta con sè.

La fotografia ha un immenso potere ed è quello di comunicare e farci riflettere, cambia il nostro modo di fantasticare, ci rende più carne e vulnerabili, ci ravvicina alla morte. Attualmente è colorata dai toni più freddi e diventa metafora di quel respiro che viene a mancare, proprio una delle concause che questo microorganismo può comportare.

L’immagine della mascherina diventa simbolo universale del 2020, ( e non si sa ancora per quanto tempo, ma ovviamente si spera che al più presto questa situazione possa concludersi ) di un mondo che sembra avere confini e barriere, ma piuttosto ci insegna che è proprio fragile come la natura dell’essere umano, che ha bisogno di contatto e che deve invece preferire il distacco. Quest’ultimo fa rumore alle nostre orecchie ed assume un senso sgradevole, eppure attualmente la nostra unica salvezza.

Credo a malapena nel genere umano, ma credo che un giorno possa riscattarsi e riscattare foto migliori.

#COVID19 #CoronaVirus #nCoV #2019_nCov #CoronavirusOutbreak #2019nCoV #Health The threat is real. Keep safe. The pandemic is now adding a million infections every 4 days. The number of confirmed coronavirus cases worldwide has topped 20 million on Monday according to John Hopkins, Worldometer, Reuters, Agence France Presse, Associated Press, and Wikipedia tallies. Case numbers have soared exponentially since the first were reported in China in December. The world recorded one million cases more than 3 months later, on April 2. The tally hit 10 million cases less than 3 months (86 days) after that, on June 28, and it has taken just 6 weeks (43 days) to double. The 7-day average for new daily cases has been above 250 million for 2 weeks. Health officials believe the actual number of cases across the world is much higher, due to testing limitations and the fact that as many as 40 per cent of those who are infected show no symptoms. The respiratory disease has infected at least four times the average number of people struck down with severe influenza illnesses annually, according to the World Health Organization (WHO). The death toll from COVID-19, meanwhile, at more than 741,380, has outpaced the upper range of annual deaths from the flu. More than four out of 10 coronavirus cases have been in the United States and Brazil, the two most affected countries in the world. The US, Brazil and India have together accounted for nearly two thirds of all cases since the world reached 15 million infections on July 22. Along with Russia and South Africa, they make up the top 5 worst-hit countries. America's coronavirus outbreak first erupted in Washington state before New York became the country's epicentre in April. The country's southern states such as Texas, Florida and Arizona initially recorded relatively lower case numbers, but after mass gatherings to celebrate a May 31 public holiday, there were spikes in infections. While the numbers in the US are alarming, they appear to be improving. After a month of rising death rates, the country reported more than 376,000 new cases last week, or an average of roughly 53,000 per day. https://www.instagram.com/p/CDx_zneF9ud/?igshid=1iq2o4m9sb9ex

The dual injustices of the Aarogya Setu Application

The following is a piece by editor Radha Raheja

The Government of India launched its official Covid-19 awareness and contact tracing app “Aarogya Setu” on 2 April 2020, during the initial stages of the coronavirus pandemic in the country. Three days later, it became one of the most popular apps in India with 5 million downloads.1 13 days after its launch, it was the fastest growing web app in history, with more than 50 million downloads.2

And yet- on June 11, 2020, India surpassed the UK to rank 4th in the list of countries with highest Covid-19 cases.3

Let’s start by asking- what’s in a name? “Aarogya Setu” literally translates to “the bridge for liberation from disease”. And when you open the app, it does seem fully equipped for the task: real time case records, social distancing advisories, details of Covid-19 testing labs, and not to mention, the much debated ‘contact tracing’- you name it, the app has it. But as I distance myself from the user experience and just begin to consider, as a spectator, the controversy it has caused and the incongruities within Aarogya Setu itself, it’s clear to me that the app makes for quite the rickety bridge.

We’ve all heard about the privacy argument. There are memes about it, Rahul Gandhi tweets about it. Recently, things got to the point where the government actually listened to activists- albeit cybersecurity activists- and released the source code for the app on GitHub (more on that later). But what does this really mean? When we say that the app is unsafe, what’s really at stake?

Here’s a fairly uncomplicated rundown- Robert Baptiste, a French ethical hacker, tweeted at the GOI that the app has security concerns. Unsurprisingly, he was thanked but dismissed.4 Then, to prove his point, Baptiste actually hacked into the app, and released details of how many people had contracted Covid-19 at the Prime Minister’s Office and the Indian Parliament. And this, believe it or not, was still a tame retaliation- Baptiste stated that hackers could find out the details who is infected, unwell, or has self-assessed using the app in any area- essentially putting not only the user’s location, but also information about their health (which the app requires you to enlist) at risk.

This finally prompted the government to release the source code of the Android version of the app to the public on 27 May- meaning that anyone can access the inner workings (codes) of the app to see what it does. However, only the client-side code of the app has been made public while the server-side still remains a cause for suspicion. This is because it remains unknown, for example, how much of our data the app actually uses- according to MIT, it is more than what is necessary to fulfil the app’s purpose.5

Another perplexing issue which has highlighted the government’s adversity to transparency is that the public source code of the app is actually stored in a different repository from the actual source code- in non-tech speak, this means that source code the government released doesn’t actually belong to the Aarogya Setu app- they basically copied a similar code and released it for the public to analyse. In essence, civilians don’t truly know how the app works at all, and the government’s half-baked response to calls for transparency is a surprise to no one.

Moving on to the next issue, which doesn’t receive as much coverage- Aarogya Setu is not used by enough people in the country to be an effective contact-tracing tool. According to estimates made by the University of Oxford,6 60% of the population in any given area would need to use a contact-tracing app for it to actually contain the virus. This is far from the case in India, where currently only 9% of the population uses Aarogya Setu. Even if every smartphone user in the country downloaded the app, the user percentage would only rise to 36% of the total population. The other 64% simply does not own a smartphone, and is therefore unable to avail benefits the app offers.

This is perhaps a reflection of the wider state of economic inequalities in India- especially as the country enters “Unlock” phases. Use of the app has been mandated by the state for government employees as they return to work and private companies are following suit. But what about gardeners who can’t tend to university campuses because they cannot use Aarogya Setu? What about shop workers in the densely populated Chandni Chowk, where social distancing is nearly impossible? What about farmers and construction labourers- essential for the economy and unable to work from home- who don’t have smartphones to download Aarogya Setu?

If we deem the app to be fundamental in a post-lockdown world, what are we saying to those who have no means to download it?

To conclude, a word on the app itself- it opens to a video of Amitabh Bachchan encouraging us to “break the stigma”. Akshay Kumar dons traditional rural attire and demeanour to tell people to get to work and reassures them of government’s efforts. Virat Kohli, Shilpa Shetty Kundra, and Anil Kapoor speak of the benefits of yoga, and several videos focus on Atmanirbharta or self-reliance, as well as the use of Ayurveda to develop immunity against Covid-19 (yes, this is on an app released by the government). And of course, quotes and speeches by PM Modi are present all across the interface.

The more I think about it, the more it seems that the app is a mirror image of the state’s position within India and its relation to the people- celebrities posing as spokespeople for the government, BJP IT Cell-esque information rampant on a civil platform, our One True Leader and his words splashed across every page. This is the face of our state. Behind it, real concerns and problems ferment and duly fade, quashed or ignored.

Who knew that a contact-tracing app could be so much more?
