When I turned 30 a few years ago, I couldn t keep track of the number of people who felt compelled to tell me that age is just a number. I personally have no issue with aging and see it as a privilege and another chapter to write and explore, but that wasn t the resounding sentiment. Instead I heard variations of this: 30 and still haven t written that epic novel? No worries, Stan Lee didn t write his first comic until he was just shy of 39, you ve got plenty of time! I have difficulty with this concept, not because I feel like there s some great accomplishment that I need to meet, but because of the double standard that my son faces in terms of his age.

The novel coronavirus’ third-wave has presented a new set of challenges for the country, many of which still remain unabated. The latest concern gripping The National Command and Operation Centre (NCOC), is talk of a higher Covid-19 ratio among children this time around.
Per NCOC, an infection rate of three per cent has been reported for children aged 1-10 years during all three waves of the virus. However, the deadly contagion was reported to have claimed at least 40 lives under the said age group so far, which stirred the national debate around the third-spell of the virus being most detrimental for children.
