"The Plague "Albert camus

1)Humanity :human self  centeredness vs human sacrifice.

         Man is a social animal that lives in a society. It has tobe wrapped up in a lot of things. Such as nature, real society, many different people, its responsibilities, policy rules, its occupation etc. Everyone has their own specific business. Today, the businesses of police, doctors, cleaners, etc. are seen inside the Koro epidemic. The society, the nation and the people have taken note of this.  He has also been honored in various ways. Which must really happen.To compare this present situation. I would like to discuss the novel "The Plague " by Albert Camus has written about the victory of human spirit over deathly spreading disease plague in oran. There virus spreading uncontrollable from animals to human.He writes that first the plague came inside the rat and then inside the man. The they did their best to control the disease. A lot of people also helped. Dr. Bernard Rieux and Dr. Castel both tried hard to control the disease. The Dr. Bernard  did not even see that his wife was ill. He continued to rescue people. He called a great doctor. At that time, the people there also took great care of the disease and helped everyone. Raymond Rambert, a journalist there, also helped a lot. As the come from to Paris. And he was going to Paris, but he stayed here to helped the people. Jean Tarrou coming to do some vacation in oran city.  But stay here because everything is closed.He also helped a lot of people. Father paneloux was the  religionguru. He was say them all that God has punished you all because of sin.The cattard was a criminal. And he was very happy to have this disease. Finally he is punished. So all these people have shown the humanity within themselves. All the different human qualities are found in this novel. In the same way there are a lot of people in the Corona epidemic right now who are helping and a lot of people are becoming a hindrance. Many doctors have started vaccinating. A lot of people make fun of Corona. And blame the government for not doing what. wanders out of the house despite lockdown.  There is no such thing as responsibility. Which causes a lot of people to die. And Corona's case increases. So everyone has to be a responsible citizen and follow all the rules and regulations.

2) Science vs religion - the question of god and religion in times of epidemics and calamities.

     The Father paneloux says that God has punished you all for your sins. At that time religion was considered more. The people were more confident. But when it was discovered that there was a disease and an epidemic.  The doctor explained to them all that this is a disease that does not come from any punishment of God. And have to care for it. The drug was developed based on its science, and it was controlled. In this way many diseases have spread before. In which religion is attached. As in the case of measles(ઓરી), she was known as measles(ઓરીમાતા) mother. Science is contained within every disease. In which the disease is caused by any change in the body, or the disease is caused by a virus.  Such as coronavirus is a viral disease at the present time.  A lot of people would die if it was left to religion. At the present time, all the temples were closed. In which God was seen at home. Yet all people are safe. God is not angry. Science and religion are intertwined. In which culture is more influential within religion. Some of the policy rules in religion are related to science. When there are epidemics or natural disasters, it also happens naturally. In which science is connected. Not that it is the wrath of God.

3) The power politics- Fascist forces of 1940s vs surveillance society of 2020s.

   

                Technology did not develop until the 1940s. So it doesn't work very quickly to show the effects of an epidemic. Due to which a lot of time was spent to provide this information. At that time information was given through newspapers. But it was banned because of the disease. So not enough information reached the people.  Even the government did not pay much attention. While the doctors contributed a lot. The people there also helped a lot. Technology has evolved a lot in recent times. Which is being used to prevent this epidemic.  Hospital Equipment, Hospital Facilities The government provides facilities like Ma Amrutam Card,  Free Corona Test , Free Medicine etc. Currently the media is a big platform to equip the government. Any defects are immediately reported by the media. Several realistic pictures are presented. Due to which the government has to take steps towards it. The country is also importing and exporting medicines and food items. 

At present the government is contributing a lot to the disease of corona.  

        He has also released an application for his various arogy setu app (આરોગ્ય સેતુ ) bridge video conferencing for any government man.  So the government helps a lot in this way in present time.

4) How this narrative is an archetype of epidemic Literature. 

      Albert Camus novel The Plague, he imagines a true epidemic. In the novel, he mentions how the disease affects mankind, starting with a mouse. Every human being is portrayed as a living character. In the present, even though the wife of Dr. Rieux is ill, he gives more importance to himself in the service of the people. His friend Dr. Castel also helps a lot. The Raymond Rambert live ni Paris,but also helps people stay here. Even the Father Paneloux there guide people who understand their mistake in the right direction. This novel leads to more deaths. It involves both rats and humans. This novel shows the diligence of a doctor. Man's feelings towards man are shown. In this novel, sad feelings like love, sorrow, death etc are shown. The different mentality of man is shown.so this nove is very useful to how to safe in your life and helpful to how to docome in any epidemic.
