2. 1.Introduction:-
The government of India is taking all crucial steps to ensure that
we are prepared well to face the challenge and warning posed by
the growing pandemic of COVID-19 the Corona Virus. With the
active support of the people of India, we have been able to
contain the spread of the virus in our country. The most
significant factor in preventing the spread of the Virus locally is
to empower the citizens with the right information and taking
precautions as per the advisories being issued by the Ministry of
Health & Family Welfare

3.  This strategic preparedness and response plan outlines the
public health measures that the international community
stands ready to provide to support all countries to prepare
for and respond to COVID-19. The document takes what we
have learned so far about the virus and translates that
knowledge into strategic action that can guide the efforts of
all national and international partners when developing
context-specific national and regional operational plans.

4. 2.Social distancing prevents infections, but it can
have unintended consequences
 In response to the coronavirus pandemic, public health officials are asking us to do
something that does not come naturally to our very social species: Stay away from
each other. Such social distancing avoiding large gatherings and close contact with
others are crucial for slowing the spread of the virus and preventing our health care
system from getting overwhelmed. But it won’t be easy.

5. 2.What is social distancing?
 Social distancing, also called “physical distancing,”
means keeping space between yourself and other
people outside of your home. To practice social or
physical distancing:
 Stay at least 6 feet (about 2 arms’ length) from other people
 Do not gather in groups
 Stay out of crowded places and avoid mass gatherings

6. 3.Impacts are below:-
 In this viewpoint, I discuss the potential implications of social distancing
on daily travel patterns.
 Avoiding social contact might change the number and types of out-of-
home activities, and how people reach these activities.
 It can be expected that the demand for travel will reduce and that
people will travel less by public transport.
 Social distancing might result in social isolation and limited physical
activity.
 Walking and cycling can be important ways to maintain satisfactory

7.  Governments have implemented social distancing
measures to address the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic. The
measures include instructions that individuals maintain a
distance from one another when in public, limitations on
gatherings and the operation of businesses, and
instructions to remain at home. Social distancing may
have a critical impact on the volume and distribution of
crime. Crimes such as residential burglary may be reduced
as a result of increased vigilance over personal space and
property. Crimes such as domestic violence may increase
because of extended periods of contact between potential
offenders and victims.

8.  Understanding the impact of social distancing on crime is critical for
ensuring the safety of police and government capacity to deal with
the evolving crisis. Understanding how social distancing policies
impact crime may also provide valuable insights into whether people
are complying with public health measures. Upon examination of the
most recently available data from Indianapolis, IN, we find that
social distancing directives are having a limited impact on police
calls-for-service, with the exception of increases in vandalism and
domestic violence. The overall effect on calls for service is notably
smaller than might be expected given the scale of the disruption to
social and economic life
