Superpowers Against COVID-19: A Dream and Reality

Imagine having a superpower to combat the current pandemic. Would you choose to see through lies, heal from the inside out, or simply make the virus disappear? While these scenarios might seem like the stuff of fiction, let's explore the real-world implications and contributions that superpowers, if they were real, could have against the ongoing challenges posed by COVID-19.

Choosing a Superpower for COVID-19

Many have posed the question, if they could have any superpower to conquer the global pandemic, what would it be and why? While there is no superpower as of now, the idea of such powers inspires both hope and imagination.

The Power to Inspire Critical Thinking

One superpower that many would choose is the ability to inspire critical thinking in all of humanity. In an article, the journalist suggests activating this power for a short period: a month or two, until the pandemic subsides. This would allow everyone to apply their critical thinking skills, keeping exposure to a minimum and fostering a more mindful approach to daily life.

Reality Warping: A Superpower from Fiction to Reality?

Another intriguing superpower to tackle the pandemic is "reality warping." This ability would allow the holder to alter reality, something akin to what some characters in sci-fi and fantasy stories possess. If this power existed, one could effectively eradicate the virus with a simple statement: "COVID is gone, because I said so." Additionally, reality warping could extend to making politicians tell the truth, streamlining efforts to combat misinformation and the spread of the virus.

Emulating the Intelligent Designer

From a spiritual perspective, some believe in the concept of 'energetic healing' or 'energy healing,' which is considered a gift of the spirit. This involves the belief that spiritual energy can be used to heal physical and mental ailments. In a more mystical sense, one might wish for the gift of 'energy healing' to directly cure people through advanced methods, such as curing COVID-19. However, currently, no deity or ascended master has the ability to directly or indirectly cure such a viral plague.

The Role of Science and Medicine

Despite these imaginative scenarios, real-world solutions lie in the realm of science and medicine. List of epidemics and top threats to the world highlight the importance of continued scientific research and development. Viruses and epidemics have been a part of human history, and applied science and sometimes the human body itself have found ways to combat them.

For example, the 'cold' is a typical viral attack, and each instance often calls for a different medical treatment. Hence, while a superpower might capture the imagination, the best approach is to support ongoing scientific research and technological advancements in healthcare. This includes developing vaccines, treatments, and preventive measures to combat new and emerging diseases.

Conclusion

While the idea of superpowers to conquer the pandemic is captivating, it's important to focus on practical, real-world solutions. Critical thinking, transparency from leaders, and continued scientific advancements are key to overcoming the challenges posed by COVID-19. Stay informed, stay safe, and continue to contribute positively to the global efforts against the virus.
