Speaking of the epidemic, everyone must remember it vividly, in 2020, the epidemic began to rage wildly, lasting for nearly three years, people lived a life of fear every day, and were locked down at home from time to time.
The first thing I do when I get up every morning is to go out to do nucleic acid, masks have become a must-have thing to bring when I go out, like keys and mobile phones, and nucleic acid certificates have become everyone's "ID card", which must be shown everywhere.
Although it has caused us a lot of trouble, fortunately, the epidemic has been much better, and everyone has slowly returned to normal life, but since the end of the epidemic, it has left 5 strange phenomena around us, have you found it?
Keep your medication at home
With the end of the epidemic, I don't know if I have found that everyone likes to store medicines at home, especially when the epidemic prevention and control in the mainland has entered the stage of their own responsibility, and everyone is desperately buying medicines.
The reason for this phenomenon is that it is the same as the reason for the large number of masks hoarded back then, especially cold medicines, fever reducers, cough medicines, etc., which are common "Lianhua Qingwen capsules".
Many people can't understand why drugs are not so short during the epidemic, but they are in short supply after the epidemic, in fact, this is the reason for the real-name system.
During the epidemic, people who buy medicines must have a real-name system, but now they don't need it, and many people have heard about hoarding drugs on the Internet, and they have continued to follow suit.
Most of them are also psychological comfort, the medicine at home is sufficient, even if there are some minor diseases, they will not panic, and they can also be treated in time, so it is okay to store some drugs appropriately.
But don't store a lot of it, which is neither good for others nor self-interested, especially drugs, "it is a medicine with three poisons", and everyone's physique is different, it is possible that others are suitable for eating this, and you are not suitable.
A large amount of medicine may lead to waste, and it may also lead to re-injury to the body due to ignorance, but the situation is much better now, but there are still people who can't control and like to hoard a lot of medicine.
Wear a mask when you go out
I still remember that at the beginning of the epidemic, masks became a hot seller, no matter where they were, as long as there were masks that were sold, they would be grabbed by people, and the price of masks was still very expensive.
However, when the epidemic passes, on the road or in public, you will still see a group of people wearing masks, giving people a feeling of "timid as a mouse".
In fact, wearing a mask has become a habit for some people, especially in public, and some people feel uncomfortable without wearing a mask.
At the same time, the epidemic has had a great impact on people, and with the protection of masks, at least everyone is at ease, this awareness of self-protection, and wearing masks can also reduce other infections.
Especially when taking the bus, any person sneezes loudly, many people are disgusted, and even unconsciously hide, but there are so many people on the bus that there is no place to hide.
If you wear a mask at this time, your heart will feel different, and at the same time, you don't know if there is any disease in this, so it is also a preventive measure in advance.
There are also many people who are in close proximity to others for work, and it is even more important for them to insist on wearing a mask. It can be said that the epidemic has changed people's lifestyles and made people realize the importance of masks, which is not only a medical protection, but also a manifestation of responsibility for their own safety.
Consumption downgrade
With the end of the epidemic, I thought it would be accompanied by the advent of "revenge consumption", but unexpectedly, many people are reluctant to go out, and they are even more reluctant to shop, resulting in a continuous decline in consumption levels, especially for the people around them.
I used to see this thing, although the price was a bit expensive, but I bought it without thinking about it, but when the epidemic ended, I had to think about it for a long time when I saw something of the same price again.
This is mainly due to the fact that during the epidemic, many people have a deeper understanding of the economic situation, because the lockdown at home has no economic income, which has doubled the pressure on many people with mortgages and car loans, and when the epidemic is over, they will manage their money more carefully and learn how to spend reasonably.
There is also a long period of lockdown and socialization, which has caused most people to fall into a feeling of exhaustion from consumption, and when it is time to take a vacation, they would rather rest at home or find something more interesting than go out to satisfy their desire to consume.
Some people are even afraid of similar accidents, so they start to make careful calculations, no longer spending at will, but saving money to prepare for the future.
More people are joining the Internet
Have you noticed that after the epidemic is over, everyone around you is about to become "Internet celebrities", not only is there more and more live broadcast software, but also various live broadcast methods are emerging.
This is mainly due to the fact that during the epidemic, most people have nothing to do, and at the same time, their income is constantly decreasing.
By shooting videos, to increase fans, not only to kill time, but also to earn money through live broadcasts after reaching a certain number of fans, especially some "Internet celebrities" who became rich overnight, made many people envious.
Especially in 2023, the number of live broadcasts and short videos counted is already jaw-dropping, with as many as 150 million accounts for online live broadcasts alone, more than 1 billion people posting content, and nearly 200 billion yuan in market revenue.
What an astonishing number, as if everyone around him is a hidden little anchor, however, there are too many people in the live broadcast industry, the cake is so big, and when there are few people, you can still get a point, but if there are more people, some people may not be able to share it.
The importance of traditional Chinese medicine has increased
Since the end of the epidemic, I don't know if there is one more phenomenon around you, most people have chosen traditional Chinese medicine, and some small clinics of Western medicine have also changed to the combination of traditional Chinese medicine.
This is because traditional Chinese medicine has played a great role during the epidemic, especially Bai Yansong in the "News 1+1" program, who talked to Zhang Boli, and he told the audience: "Western medicine can save the lives of seriously ill patients, and traditional Chinese medicine can also turn the tide." Since ancient times, emergency care has been the strength of Chinese medicine. ”
In addition, traditional Chinese medicine has the effect of enhancing human immunity, after the epidemic, everyone pays attention to their physical health, in order to enhance immunity, so everyone will choose traditional Chinese medicine.
And during the epidemic, many patients had different symptoms, such as cough, fever, etc., and traditional Chinese medicine better alleviated this symptom by regulating the body's blood, qi and blood.
This makes everyone see the importance of traditional Chinese medicine, so after the epidemic is over, many people unconsciously choose, even if they are not sick, they also want to prescribe some traditional Chinese medicine to prevent it.
epilogue
Although the epidemic is over, we should not relax our vigilance, we should better ensure our physical and mental health, and if other viruses appear, we can better prevent them.
With the continuous growth of medical technology in the mainland, I believe that in the future, we will be able to eradicate these viruses and provide a safe living environment for everyone.
