What does flattening the curve mean during COVID 19 and how will it help to solve the current pandemic disease? Flattening the curve is one of the campaign strategy that is being implemented by most countries to fight COVID 19. Since the curve symbolizes the infected people that needs help and special attention, and if we flatten or reduce the curve, we can maintain the number of our hospital beds, equipments and medicine. Our health care system will also not to exceed the maximum capacity and will help not to overwhelmed the hospitals since reducing the curve will give enough time for our doctors and frontliners to make necessary preparation. We can flatten the curve by staying at home, stay healthy, practice proper hygiene and maintain social distancing.
While we are still on lockdown period and contribute to flattening the curve, BTS has successfully wrapped up their 2-Day Concert Streaming Series called Bang Bang Con last April 18th to April 19th thru their YouTube channel BangtanTV. The said channel has now more than 28 million subscribers and according to their company label Big Hit Entertainment, the said streaming has 50 million hit worldwide! Imagine if 50 million and more people everyday will managed to just stay at home and contribute to flatten the curve, we will overcome together and be able to fight COVID 19 too!
Bang Bang Con is a compilation of past BTS concert a year after their debut up to their latest Love Yourself World Tour. They also show some rehearsals before the concert and play some of their hit chart Music Videos. What I love about BTS is they never failed to thank Army fans by giving powerful performance, funny pick up lines and interesting real life stories which added to the success of their concert. It was also reported that more than 500,000 light stick or Army Bomb has been connected worlwide and gathered together even at home since the live streaming managed to synchronize and change the color of the light sticks while watching Bang Bang Con.
This is also one proof that if we joined together and show our support to our government by simply staying at home and maintain social distancing, we can all help to flatten the curve and we can overcome this crisis together in a short period of time.
