Impact of Lockdown Due to COVD-19 a Century Pandemic in India2020 •
The Corona Virus Disease (COVID-19) pandemic has been created due to the infection by novel coronavirus. Globally, countries have taken measures to reduce social contact to slow down the spread of the virus. Social (physical) distancing via lockdown and awareness on personal hygiene are mitigating measures to prevent transmission of disease. Indian government has implemented the first phase of national lockdown for 21 days (March 24 to April 14, 2020) to reduce the transmission of COVID-19. This study is performed in two stages. First, review of Indian scenario till the end of the first phase of national lockdown and second the impact assessment of the first phase of social lockdown on doubling rate of COVID-19 cases in different Indian states and overall India. The timeline of activities, health care facilities, schemes and services by government and private organizations in combating COVID-19 in India are presented. Analysis is performed using the 3-day moving average daily growth...

Impact of Lockdown 1.0-4.0 on spread of COVID-19 Pandemic in IndiaNovel Coronavirus Outbreak (COVID-19) was declared as a pandemic on 11th March 2020 by World Health Organization (WHO). This was a call for immediate action to be taken on by all countries in terms of stepping up treatment, detection, and reduction of transmission. A total of 26472012 confirmed cases with over 873229 deaths were reported as on 4th September 2020 worldwide. (1) Government of India, initiated various Non-Pharmaceutical Intervention (NPI) to break the chain of transmission and prevent the spread of COVID-19, which included social distancing, and restricted public mobility like lockdown. The largest COVID-19 national lockdown in India started on 25th march 2020. Still, India’s population of 1·3 billion across diverse states, health inequalities, widening economic and social disparities, and distinct cultural values present unique challenges.(2) Meanwhile nationwide lockdown was extended till 31st may 2020 by Ministry of Home Affairs, Government of India (Lockdown 4.0)....

The emergence of COVID -19 pandemic has severely impacted individuals from all walks of life. The rapid spread of the disease to nearly all parts of the country has posed enormous health, economic, environmental and social challenges to the entire human population. In the absence of any effective drugs and vaccines for treatment, social distancing and other preventive measures are the only alternatives. Lockdown is among one of the options suggested by WHO to reduce spread of the virus. India was quick to close its international borders and enforce the world’s largest COVID lockdown on March 22, 2020. The present study attempts to highlight the impact of imposed nationwide lockdown on society and environment alike along with analysis of lifestyle changes. The study was based on an online survey using a structured questionnaire with over 1000 responders across the country. The pandemic situation demands a certain way of shaping the society to reduce virus spread and safeguard oneself...
COVID-19 has significantly altered the social fabric of society. This paper studies the impact of COVID-19 and lockdown on water, sanitation, essential goods, human psychology, behaviour, and crime rate in India. It describes the correlations between each of these aspects and the lockdown and assesses the impact of these factors in different regions as the lockdown continues or the virus spreads. We start by highlighting the factors that affect the supply of clean water during the lockdown and move on to describing how different sanitation scenarios could impact the lockdown. Continuing the lockdown could have a major effect on water supply and effective sanitation, which could, in turn, play an important role in the spread (or control) of COVID-19. In these tough times, when 133 crore people are in absolute lockdown, it becomes imperative that the supply of essential goods and services does not get disrupted. However, there are a lot of gaps and irregularities in the current supply chain system, which lead to huge distribution problems, ultimately causing discomfort to the citizens. We analyse and provide insights into the factors causing these gaps. Another aspect that has been studied in this paper is the correlation between lockdown and human psychology and behavioural patterns. Even people having a safe place to stay inside their homes may develop psychological conditions during the lockdown. It's important to study the impact of pandemics on human behavioural psychology and psycho-social aspects. Similarly studying the reaction and behaviour of people to the control measures taken by the authorities is an important factor to consider while making decisions. Finally, the lockdown duration has seen a wave of certain types of crimes on the rise. The crime rate needs to be supervised and controlled to have a healthy and safe society. We study the impact of the temporal and spatial factors that enable different types of crimes occurring or increasing during the lockdown so that authorities can take better measures to prevent them. Studying these aspects not only helps the authorities to make better decisions but also be prepared for any such pandemics in the future. It also helps the people to be well-informed and stay safe.

Effect of Lockdown during COVID-19: An Indian PerspectiveBackground: The 2019 corona virus disease (COVID-19) pandemic has caused havoc worldwide and is a public health emergency of international concern. India is also going through a challenging situation as the number of COVID-19 cases is increasing day by day. The Indian Government imposed strict preventive measures and restrictions in the form of nationwide lockdown on 25th March, 2020 to retard the spread of the virus. The aim of this study is to survey the general public in India for exploring the impact of lockdown on the mental health of individuals. Methods: A cross-sectional web-based survey design was created using the free software Google Forms®. Survey was conducted from 15th April to 25th April 2020. A total of 5459 individuals met the inclusion criteria and the data is analysed using statistics software IBM SPSS (Version 25). Chi square test has been used to determine correlation between demographic data and mental state in lockdown during Covid-19 pandemic. P value <0.05, is considered significant. Results: Increased anxiety is seen age group of 41-50 (p value 0.015), 51-60 (p value 0.002), self employed (p value <0.001), persons staying alone (p value <0.001), persons staying in containment zones (p value <0.001) and in persons who knew any positive case in their friend / family circle (p value <0.001). Apprehension of financial loss is statistically significant for self employed (p value <0.001), persons employed in private job (p value <0.001) and those in age group of 31-40 (p value <0.001). Fear of diminishing essential supplies is significant in home makers (p value 0.006). Fear of infection is more in retired persons (p value 0.001) and in age group above 60 years (p value 0.03). Fear of death is significant in persons above 70 years of age (p value 0.007). There is no statistically significant effect on interpersonal relations. Conclusion: This study shows association between lockdown during COVID-19 and anxiety and other apprehensions in Indian population. These findings need further research to identify communities at high risk of destabilized mental health so that interventions can be planned. Health authorities could consider providing online psycho education through social media or TV programs.

Assessing the Impact of Complete Lockdown on COVID-19 Infections in India and its Burden on Public Health Facilities2020 •
In this paper, an attempt has been made to assess the impact of complete lockdown on COVID-19 infection in India. This study obtained COVID-19 data on daily confirmed, recovered, and deaths for 21 days and have implemented the exponential growth model to predict future cases and study the role of lockdown in reducing the number of confirmed COVID 19 cases and deaths. The mathematical model was used to calculate the average reproduction number and herd immunity. Initially, the curve of confirmed cases and deaths grows exponentially; but later, the government-enforced lockdown has helped in curtailing the growth of the curve. The preventive measures may have averted around 4,31,915 confirmed cases and 32,856 deaths till May 3, 2020. The reproduction rate was estimated at 2.56 during the pre-lockdown period and is reduced to 1.56 during lockdown period. It is also observed that the number of COVID-19 patients in a government hospital in India as on May 3 would have been on an average of 15 cases per hospital if it grows exponentially. However, due to lockdown, it has reduced to the level of 2 cases per hospital. The number of confirmed cases grew around 19 percent during the pre-lockdown period of March 14-24, 2020, and stabilizes at the same pace till April 5. Post-April 5, the decline in the growth rate of confirmed cases reached as low as 10 percent. Results indicate that the preventive measures taken at the early stages have successfully helped in preventing a large number of deaths and infected cases in India.

Covid-19, a pandemic that evolved from Wuhan (China), has caused a devastating impact on every society in the world, including India. Because of the severe consequences of this crucialhealth crisis, World Health Organization (WHO) declared it a global pandemic. The rapid spread forced the nations to cease international travelling, eventually leading to a worldwide lockdown. Multiple social, educational, economic, political, psychological, and agricultural issues emerged amidst the lockdown that further impacted Indian society. The current study has critically analysed the devastating impact of the Covid-19 pandemic lockdowns on Indian society. It was found that the lockdown was inflicted without any planning or prior warning to the Indian society, resulting in loss of livelihoods, depression, stress, violation of human rights, poor education, unemployment, and numerous psychological issues. The central government blissfully ignored the plight of the Indian society as no action was taken to mitigate the sufferings.
