According to a Buckingham Palace spokesman, women will wear black knee-length dresses and hats. Meanwhile, men wear black coats with medals. In 1982, photos of Princess Diana at the funeral of Princess of Monaco – Grace Kelly – showed her wearing a full-face hat, a long-sleeved black dress with a collar and a heart necklace. At that time, her choice was highly appreciated because it was suitable for the situation and still showed the inherent style. The dress code for royal funerals has long been a symbol of grief and nobility. Photo: Anwar Hussein, Mirrorpix. The color of grief Black has long been the color of choice for mourning. It was associated with grief in the 19th century. By this time in Europe and America, the regulations on mourning dress were firmly in place, especially for women. It is fueled by the proliferation of women’s publications as well as more affordable clothing. Harper’s Bazaar advised readers to aim for “nunnish simplicity” in 1868. Even the modern department store was born out of the fledgling funeral industry. Around the 1840s, Kate Strasdin – British historian and fashion curator – said: “Shops sprung up in London (England) and Paris (France) to cater to everyone. In which, you have can buy everything from stationery to funeral jewelry.” Around the 1840s, mourning dresses were created in a variety of styles. Photo: De Agostini Editorial. For a short time in 1938, after the death of her grandmother Queen Elizabeth II, black fell out of favor at funerals. One photo shows the queen mother wearing a white dress designed by Norman Hartnell to honor the passing of her mother. Influence from Queen Victoria “No one has influenced mourning more than Queen Victoria. After the sudden death of her husband Prince Albert in 1861, she expressed her sadness by wearing black every day for four decades. until his death” CNN comment. According to Strasdin, it was Victoria who helped codify the nuances of grieving fashion and maintain the image of “permanent widow”. In Victorian times, even the really small details of a dress tell what stage of the funeral you’re in. It symbolizes wealth and status by proving you can buy a mourning wardrobe as well as understanding the rules. The dress was worn by Queen Victoria after 33 years of her husband’s death.

During the last 6 months of the 2.5-year period, “semi-mourning” clothing can be worn in white, gray, pale yellow or shades of lilac or lavender. After going through a period of grief for many years, Queen Victoria persisted in wearing black mourning for the rest of her life. One of Victoria’s dresses after 33 years of her husband’s death was a sombre black crepe with a simple hemline. Strasdin noted that Victoria’s dark dressing style was unpopular with some family members. Her daughter-in-law – Queen Alexandra – marked a change, loosening restrictions when Queen Victoria died. Alexandra opted for semi-mourning shimmering gowns of mauve silk chiffon and sequins, as well as pale yellow or gray. “She knew that the public was really struggling with the queen’s constant mourning. So Queen Alexandra instituted half-mourning for the rest of her life,” Strasdin said. Over the decades, the influence of Queen Victoria’s mourning dress is still present in modern royal periods. It ranges from austere colors to strict rules. Queen Alexandra purposefully loosened the rigid rules for mourning attire under Victoria. Photo: AFP.

The deadly “tsunami” called COVID-19 is sweeping across the Indian subcontinent, leaving tragedies that scare the world. With each passing day, India has recorded more tragic records of the number of people infected with COVID-19 as well as the number of deaths from this deadly virus since the outbreak of the epidemic in China more than a year. before. For days in a row, the number of people infected with COVID-19 has reached a world record, exceeding 300,000, while the number of deaths steadily exceeds a terrible threshold of 3,000 people per day. This South Asian nation’s health system showed signs of not tolerating the aggressive attack of COVID-19. Hospitals refused to accept patients with COVID-19 because they were completely overloaded. Newspapers reported that patients who reached the hospital gate died there because they were not admitted. Many hospitals deplete their oxygen supply, causing the death of patients to be abnormally high. Photo: LG In particular, hospitals such as Gorakhpur have had to make the painful option of withdrawing the ventilators of elderly patients who have not improved after a long period of treatment. to give oxygen to young patients with a greater chance of life. The crematoriums were nearly melted down by not turning off the fire for 24 hours a day. And even when running at full capacity, the crematorium could not handle the number of corpses caused by COVID-19, causing people to organize cremation in open areas. The pictures of the crematoriums burning red fire day and night are like scenes from horror movies about hell. The world is horrified by the tragic scene, at the dire consequences caused by the COVID-19 pandemic in India. The frightening thing is that it seems that these deadly scenes are not yet the culmination of the pandemic. Many experts make gloomy predictions about the number of people infected and dying in India will continue to rise and peak in the days of May 2021. Meanwhile, the lack of oxygen continues to put enormous pressure on the oxygen plants. Once considered a drugstore in the world, a source of vaccines against COVID-19 for other countries, now India itself is in a shortage of vaccines, having to import … All signal a gloomy future before the epidemic in this South Asian country. Wrong chain Because a country that only a few weeks ago confidently thought that it had entered the final stage of the war against COVID-19 and successfully controlled a pandemic, is now suddenly engulfed in a “tsunami”. This death? In March 2020, India is one of the rare countries in the world implementing a national blockade to fight pandemics, a harsh measure not easy to take for a country with 1.3 billion people. This measure may have had serious consequences for the Indian economy as well as the well-being of the people. However, for the Indian authorities at that time, the threat of COVID-19 was the greatest one, existing and must be prevented at all costs, from spreading it. This strong measure has yielded positive results. The number of deaths is much lower than experts predicted. The number of daily infections also plummeted after reaching a peak of 100,000 per day in September 2020. It was at that time that began a series of mistakes that would cost India a hefty price point later. The first is the erroneous belief that India can achieve a state of public immunity to easily overcome the COVID-19 pandemic. This belief stems from studies that suggest that the majority of Indians, except for the rich and middle-class, from working outdoors a lot, absorb a large amount of vitamin D, thus increasing the body’s ability. resistant to viruses. These theorists claim that the low mortality in the late 2020 period supports this point. But, they have not learned a valuable lesson from countries like Sweden or the UK, which have had time to misplace their beliefs in community immunity and thus have suffered painful consequences. pain caused by the COVID-19 pandemic. After a period of social “relax” with belief in community immunity and as a result, the number of infections and the death rate skyrocketed compared to other countries with the same social conditions, gender. These countries are forced to formally admit mistakes in terms of policies, leading to tragic consequences for society. The mistakes made by these countries in the early stages of the COVID-19 pandemic demonstrate that in critical moments, the right policy is needed and is more valuable than a single dose of vaccine. fabricated). If the policy is wrong, not only a few individuals but the whole society will have to pay the price. But, the second mistake is the main cause of the current humanitarian tragedy in India. Until early 2021, the Indian authorities acted as if the COVID-19 pandemic ceased to exist. Large rallies are allowed. In particular, despite the risks of transmitting COVID-19 in a crowded environment, Indian officials have allowed millions of believers to participate in religious festivals with the policy of “belief in God will win. fear of viruses ”. A typical example of this phenomenon is the Kumbh Mela festival, one of the holiest Hindu pilgrimage ceremonies that take place on the banks of the Ganges River with millions in attendance. Most of the millions of people gathered in this place without masks, without spacing, turning such festivals into “super infectious” events, the ideal environment for the virus to spread at breakneck speed. , sowing invisible death would turn tragedy for days afterward … For whom the Bell Tolls! The world has not underestimated the magnitude of the COVID-19 pandemic in India. Until the tragedy struck, the prospect of a global catastrophe stemming from a pandemic raging in India emerged. Considered to be the world’s largest vaccine manufacturer, India has participated in the vaccine supply chain for poor, developing countries around the world. Currently, preliminary statistics show that up to 92 developing countries depend on supplies of vaccines from India. The COVID-19 pandemic broke out in India on a large scale, creating a favorable environment for the mutant virus to form new strains. By the time India was caught in the midst of COVID-19, which led to a shortage of vaccines and a slow pace of vaccination, it was natural that Indian authorities tightened exports of COVID vaccines. -19 abroad. Before the outbreak of the pandemic, India joined the COVAX program to provide equitable access to the COVID-19 vaccine. Until the COVID-19 “tsunami” hit, India froze vaccine exports, including for the COVAX program, to save vaccines for use to meet domestic demand. As a result, the worldwide supply chain of vaccines is under enormous pressure; At least 92 poor countries that received vaccines from the COVAX program were severely affected. According to the World Health Organization (WHO), India’s withdrawal from the program to worry about domestic issues caused COVAX to lack 90 million doses of vaccine planned for 60 low-income countries in March and April. Another, more significant concern is that the widespread outbreak of COVID-19 in India, with many untreated people, has been a favorable environment for the virus to mutate, creating new strains, which are more virulent, and “smarter” to adapt to human-made vaccines. It is also worth mentioning that new variants of the COVID virus in India have been discovered and have entered dozens of countries around the world, posing a big challenge to the global health network. for example, countries with weak health systems themselves. Realizing those risks, the world has frantically rushed in to help India overcome the aftermath of the pandemic. The US, UK, and United Arab Emirates (UAE) are rushing to send breathing machines and vaccine materials, while a number of other countries have also pledged to assist India to overcome the crisis. France, New Zealand and Spain pledged to share some of their dosages with the COVAX program to help reduce vaccine shortage tensions for poor countries due to India’s withdrawal from the program. Even China, which is in a state of border dispute with India, has announced it will send the vaccine to its neighbor, but did not say how much and when to send it. It seems that, in the meantime, helping India is also helping me! Please do not ask who is the bell for your soul, the bell for your soul!
