Boost Your Moral Immunity
The Teenager Today|January 2021
“It’s positive! You are advised immediate follow-up treatment and total isolation,” came the expected message from the Covid-19 test centre!

Boost Your Moral Immunity

This was followed by loads of advice from friends, family members, doctors, nurses, and the like. “Inhale steam, gargle with saline water, take good rest, sleep well, take vitamin supplements, do breathing exercises, and bathe in plenty of sunshine,” etc., were some of the well-meaning but repeated instructions. All these were intended at one single programme: Boost your immune system to fight and conquer the obnoxious virus that can attack and destroy the cells on some of your vital organs.

Today, as the whole world is battling the deadly virus, we stand in need of a greater moral and spiritual force to fight and conquer various types of evils that threaten the existence of human family. The pandemic teaches that the world needs a renewal, a rejuvenation, and a resurgence from its moral and spiritual degradation.

1. Immunity against the Pandemic of Injustice

Injustice is the violation of the right of a person or group of persons. Justice calls for equal opportunity and treatment of every citizen before the law. Everyone has a right to one’s human dignity: to profess one’s faith, to work and earn decent wages, free speech and movement, right to education, food, etc. When any of these rights are denied to someone, it amounts to injustice.
