DISASTER PERSPECTIVE COVID-19 SITUATION

Anthropological perspective Disease is a condition in people's bodies that has a negative impact
on their physical, mental, and social well-being. This situation
appears to be caused by an imbalance in the relationship between
a person's biology and his surroundings. The germ theory of disease
relies on scientific theory to explain the wide range of diseases
caused by microorganisms. COVID-19 is caused by a Coronavirus, a
very small microorganism.
Economic perspective The benefits of various risk management tactics and strategies
include the prevention of these negative consequences. Given
COVID-19's enormous economic impact compared to natural and
man-made disasters, it's reasonable to wonder if sufficient
investments are being made to prevent future pandemics.
Health perspective COVID-19 can infect people of all ages with the same risk, especially
those between the ages of 20 and 80. However, the age group
influences the number of people who die from the virus, especially
those over the age of 60. The older a person is, the greater the risk
he or she faces.
Religious perspective The COVID-19 pandemic has had a variety of effects on religion and
faith. Various restrictions have been put in place all over the world.
Authorities' warnings that gatherings must be limited to combat
the spread of the virus are at odds with believers. Religion has
always served as a balm for the soul, and regular religious
attendance has been linked to improved emotional health
outcomes.
Political perspective The effects of government norms, actions, and policies on post-
disaster rehabilitation, reconstruction, and recovery are a final
consideration. It is important to note that the impact of
government planning interventions differs from the impact of
controls on people under physical-social distancing and "stay at
home" requirements, because the latter controls are designed to
prevent further contagion and the collapse of health systems with
higher death rates, rather than to reopen or recover the economy.
Psychological perspective Humans, also known as social animals, who live in social clusters
may be harmed not only by COVID-19 but also by isolation.
Theorists define perceived social isolation as physical separation
from others, and they investigated whether this phenomenon has
any psychological implications. They discovered that social isolation
could lead to negative emotions (e.g., anger, sadness, and low
mood), lower levels of arousal in extroverts and those who prefer
to be around people, and even a decline in cognitive abilities in
extroverts and those who prefer to be around people (e.g.,
problem solving and decision making.)
Scientific-technological Given the current state of public health, research agendas that
perspective previously prioritized the analysis of specific natural, socio-natural,
and anthropogenic hazards and their consequences may be
impacted or even halted. Much of this analysis of various hazards,
with dynamics unrelated to the current pandemic, is, however, still
valid.
Gender perspective The General Recommendation 37 of the Convention on the
Elimination of All Forms of Discrimination Against Women (CEDAW)
explicitly links disasters, pandemics, and women's rights in an
actionable way, providing guidance to State Parties on how to
ensure that gender equality and women's empowerment are
central to disaster management and humanitarian response.

*CHECK YOUR UNDERSTANDING

Considering the advantageous and disadvantageous effects of disasters, why is it important to view
disasters on various perspectives?

-Because a disaster is a serious disruption of a community's or society's functioning over a relatively


short period of time, involving widespread human, material, economic, or environmental loss and
impacts, which exceeds the affected community's or society's ability to cope using its own resources, it
is important to view disasters from various perspectives.

How can we view disasters from the perspective of the educational sector?

- We can see this by looking at the socioeconomic and physical effects of disasters on the education
sector. This was necessary to develop an evidence-based rationale for raising awareness about disaster
risk reduction concerns in education sector policy and advocating for changing practices and
incorporating disaster resilient features in school construction.
