The number of positive cases of coronavirus throughout the world is increasing at an unprecedented rate. There is no doubt that this modern health disaster is one of the biggest untill now. The times are getting tougher but the people are asked to keep calm and stay indoors so that the health departments and the governments can keep the rate of spreading of the virus under our control.
Many events have gotten cancelled due to the pandemic with which the world is going through. This includes the Tokyo Olympics which has now shifted to 2021 and Champions League has been cancelled for now. Other events in different industries have also been cancelled like the mobile world conference.
To this very dark side of the story, we have silver linings like people getting together and spending time with their loved ones and donating money to the charities. People are now more kind towards others as this virus has come as a leveller. It is not biased on the basis of money, prestige or anything. Different organisations have taken the stage to help people in this crisis.
The Italian football club, AS Roma, has begun distributing emergency care packets to the supporters of the club which are the most vulnerable. It is adjudged to be an empathetical initiative by the European Football Giant Club.
Italy is still the country which has been hit the hardest by the virus as Italy has reported over 9,000 death in total and the figure is not seeming to stop despite the countrywide lockdown. The count of the total cases has gone past 90,000 and people are as scared as ever.
This lockdown has led to many people facing mental health issues as well.
AS Roma is delivering the care packages to every season ticket holder who is above the age of 75 years. These boxes include pasta, biscuits, a bottle of beer, 10 surgical face masks, 10 pairs of protective gloves and five bottles of hand sanitizer, as well as that day’s edition of Gazzetta Dello Sport.
