Actors' corona risk is 80 percent higher than normal

 The epidemic did not seem to take a terrible turn. There is a touch of panic everywhere now. The entertainment courtyard was not left out of that touch. Every day someone is being infected with this epidemic virus. As there is no direct government ban on shooting, many people are continuing to work on the issue of bread and butter. The inter-organization of the television did not directly ban the shooting nor did it encourage it. The organizations have given instructions that those who want to work can work in compliance with the highest safety and hygiene rules.

Last year, when the number of victims of the first wave of corona was in the decade, all kinds of organizations stopped shooting for their own safety. Even the actors keep themselves under house arrest in lockdown. Gradually that number began to increase little by little. After that, the producers-actors stopped shooting for a few months and resumed shooting with maximum security. For one thing, for many it is a question of bread and butter! The number of victims is now more than 6,000. Naturally, Karona has taken a terrible form now.Due to which, the lockdown is going on again across the country in the second wave of Corona which started from this month. Many are shooting because there is no direct ban and many have been re-arrested for the safety of themselves and their families.

Where many employees or other employees can work in the office after the mask if they want. In the case of actors, that picture is completely different. Because, they have to do the work using their face, that is, they have to act. For this it is necessary to open the mask from the face. You can't always wear a mask even if you want to.

A study by the US Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) found that wearing a mask reduces a person's coronary risk by 90 to 92.5 percent (using a double mask). But the risk for actors increases by more than 60 percent. Because, artists have to act by removing the mask. Everyone in the shooting unit can wear a mask all the time, but the actors often can't. Standing in front of the camera might do that for a while. Even then the risk remains. In that case, their risk is reduced by only 10 to 12.5 percent.

How do the middlemen of the drama see this lockdown? What are they doing? Safety, hygiene? Or what do they think in such a situation? While searching for answers to some of these questions, it is known that although many people are shooting, they are not shooting at the moment.Since at first many people could not cope with the push of the corona there is a new wave again! Everyone is reluctant to put themselves at risk. Because everyone has an adult or a child in their family. So they are reluctant to jump into the shooting because they have to do the job. So they discuss with their co-artists, directors and producers a few points about working; Even so, owning one is still beyond the reach of the average person.

When contacted, Afran Nishor told Bangladesh Journal, "Many people have not yet been able to cope with last year's Corona shock." Now the situation is getting worse day by day, which is a matter of great concern. Because, at the end of the day, you have to think about yourself and your family. I have a wife and son in my family. On the 25th / 26th of last month, I came to know some data of Corona through my doctor brother. After analyzing, I found out that it is going to be horrible in the future. Then I discuss the matter with our colleagues, directors, producers who are there. Within a couple of days, we saw that the number of cases of coronary heart disease was increasing. Then we think about the safety of ourselves and our family and after discussing a few points we decide that it is safe to stop working now or we will talk about how to ensure safety even if it works. Then from April 3, some of our colleagues stopped working after talking to everyone. '

‘It’s easy to accept when there is a guideline for everyone. As many are doing. We can't do it even if we want to. Working is not everything, there is also a matter of responsibility here. Since acting is our profession, we have to do it. Because we have to act using our face. In the case of everyone else, everyone can do their work in the office court after the mask, but since we are actors, we have to take off the mask. In that case, the risk for us is 60 percent higher than the general population. If anything happens to any of us today but no one else will take responsibility for it. I have to travel, I have to take responsibility for it myself. '- Nisho added.

Ziaul Farooq Apurba is in doubt about working in this new wave of corona. The artist is putting forward the issue of their own protection. "Shooting is not everything, it's all," he said. Since I have learned acting, I am doing it and I have to do it. But their own safety comes first. Every day I hear the news that someone is being attacked. I am terrified at every moment. In the meantime I was attacked once. I have overcome that stress with great difficulty. The work must be done. Let's go for a while, then I will understand the situation and make a decision. '

Abdun Noor Sajal said, "I don't see the issue of Corona being resolved suddenly. At the rate at which the number of victims is constantly increasing, they are thinking a lot about themselves. Because I have elderly parents in my family. Since the government has given a lockdown, we should all abide by it properly. Otherwise we may have to see a lot worse. And for caution and safety, you must wear a mask. Even so, owning one is still beyond the reach of the average person. I'm not doing any shooting right now. I can't hope to return to work now until the situation returns to normal. '

Mehzabin Chowdhury said, ‘I have stopped work even before this lockdown. I see security first, then work. I hear bad news every day. I am in panic now. It is very important to comply with the lockdown at this time. As long as the rules of lockdown are violated or violated, the number of victims will continue to increase. Thus, the lockdown period will continue to increase. We should be much more aware. It would be wise to comply with the lockdown at this time. And when I will take part in the shooting will depend on the situation, time will tell. '

In such a situation, many actors, directors and producers have stopped working for some time thinking of safety. If the situation is favorable, they will return to shooting again. And even if you work in it, the issue of maximum security should be emphasized - that is what everyone wants. Not only the artist but everyone should take care of themselves and ensure the safety of everyone around them.

Incidentally, the lockdown has been going on across the country since April 5. The government has extended the lockdown before it expires. The Ministry of Public Administration has announced a strict lockdown for another 7 days from April 14. All offices and garments will be closed for 7 days except emergency services. Public transport will also be closed.
