COVID-19 Pandemic as a Multidimensional Non-human Teacher to Human Race: A Multidisciplinary Approach

Abstract: This paper examines COVID-19 pandemic, its origin, causes, symptoms, effects and even the lessons that human race can derive from the pandemic. Philosophical analysis method is employed in this paper. COVID-19 leads to problems such as depression, death, loss of employment, lack of access to remote learning due to absence of relevant Information Communication Technology (ICT) facilities like browsing mobile phones, irregular electricity, and others. All these problems can be tackled by implementing certain suggestions for positive life during and after COVID-19. These suggestions or identified means of solving COVID-19 problems come from multiple disciplines such as philosophy, counselling, humanities and education. Most identified means of solving the problem include the use of critical thinking to acquire more knowledge to overcome COVID-19 and its adverse effects, avoiding corruption, provision of ICT facilities for remote learning, counseling for psychological wellness, adopting preventive measures, and so on. The study concluded that human race applies to the positive life during and after COVID-19 to facilitate multidimensional developments.
