Caution fatigue

India is battling with covid -19 pandemic disease . The spread of disease has been increased significantly over past months .


I observed significant change in the behaviour of people before lockdown and after lockdown . When this pandemic entered India and Indian government declared lockdown , at that time people really were scared of their lives though the mortality rate was really low .


But now the people getting infection amount is more and also the death numbers, are increasing . But people are acting like they don't care for this pandemic . Though government is educating people about cleanliness and use of sanitizer and wearing mask , people seem to be not serious .


This change in the psychological condition of people is called cautious fatigue .



When lockdown was first announced , many people were charged with energy and motivation to flatten the curve . But now many months on  , prolonged stress , anxiety , isolation and disturbed routine has made the people drained .


People are getting more lax about social distancing . This is cautious fatigue .
