Representative Image
BHUBANESWAR: With a surge in fresh Covid-19 cases in the state, the daily routine of elders has been disrupted again. Doctors have advised them against going out for non-essential work and many have voluntarily stopped going out for morning walks and evening strolls due to fear of infection.
Those staying alone have once again started depending on home delivery services for grocery, medicine and other essentials, bringing back disturbing memories of 2020.
“As fresh Covid cases have started increasing again, life has become harder for elderly persons like us. Since elders are more vulnerable, we need to be extra careful. We have been locked up in our houses once again. It is scary and disturbing. Morning and evening visits to parks and meeting friends help us stay relaxed,” said Bibhuti Bhusan Rath, a senior citizen and resident of Saheed Nagar.
