April 10, 2020Hey everybody.It's been 2 weeks into lockdown, and we trust you have all been coping well during these times.The news is mightily  important in order for the community to remain informed and up to date with current affairs that are integral in the wellbeing of our lives. the news brings us all sorts of topics, from politics to economics and right through to sports. at the current moment there has been an influx in news on, yes you guessed it, the corona virus. The rate at witch people are being infected, dying , and mentally being affected are alarming, alarming to the point where the whole world is experiencing fear. Governments have enforced a lockdown in most countries, denying human interaction. luckily there is social media and that allows us to stay in touch with the world. social media is also the easiest way to pass on news, a great piece of innovation indeed. However with the fear that is already caused by the COVID19 pandemic on people, social media has a way to heighten that fear, and that is by spreading fake news. in this episode we look at what fake news is, how to spot it and finding the solution to put it to bed.

We have come to find out that its about taking responsibility and initiative by participating in some of the practices constructed to ensure a safer, healthier, and greener Earth. Social responsibility acted on by well known people and organisations is key to driving initiatives, and adidas are leading by example when it comes to caring for the environment. we elaborate in the episode on how they are pulling their weight.  We have established this episode as one of our most interesting so far, so sit back relax, and enjoy the listen.Feel free to comment.

Beloved audience, we are thrilled to bring you yet another episode of The Viral Wellness! We trust you have been enjoying what we have been making for you, we get more excited by the day. We have an infinite amount of topics to cover -  all for your well being and entertainment.  Our latest episode is on a very important subject: education. The very fact that you are reading this description is because you are literate, an extremely important skill to have. We are sure you agree. As The Viral Wellness, we asked ourselves the question, "How important it is for the economy that we produce students who are literate, both in the world and in particular South Africa?" This drove us to explore basic education statistics that could support to children in becoming literate and chasing their dreams for the future. We were led on this episode by Alison Scott, Dr Stephanie Gottwald and Creesen Naicker - a knowledgeable, credible, experienced and forward thinking trio. Recording this episode was rather interesting... Episode Topics Education and TechnologyCOVID-19 Impacts on EducationFeed the Monster ApplicationCurious Learning InitiativesWorld Education Statistics by UNESCOEarly Childhood DevelopmentThe Importance of Reading Education in South AfricaSources:UNESCO Stats - https://unesdoc.unesco.org/ark:/48223/pf0000369009Nelson Mandela Insert -  https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=h0w_PFEl1zsNews Sources: Vandalised Schools in SA - https://www.news24.com/SouthAfrica/News/number-of-gauteng-schools-vandalised-robbed-since-lockdown-has-spiked-to-55-20200413ENCA Cross-Check - https://www.enca.com/news/At-least-55-schools-vandalised-robbed-gautengCOVID19 Stats - https://www.worldometers.info/coronavirus/#newsCurious Learning - https://www.curiouslearning.org/Bellavista School - https://bellavista.org.za/Feed the Monster App Page Link! - https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.eduapp4syria.feedthemonsterSAEnglish&hl=en_ZASound Effects: https://www.myinstants.com/index/za/https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tuHaY1lwlEQhttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TuQC5hhhqkYhttps://www.youtube.com/audiolibrarySocial Media Handles: Facebook & Instagram - @theviralwellnessTwitter - @ViralWellnessSACheck out our latest work on the WHO #HealthyAtHome campaign.

Greetings once again beloved listeners, we hope you're holding up as we are faced with a changing world. We're pretty sure you know how the lockdown works, basically there are rules that have been set out to keep us in our households in order to prevent the spread of the corona virus, where the only time you are able to leave your house would be in accordance with the regulations. There are different stages with different regulations and  the regulations ease of as the stages phase out, in order to allow economic activity in turn giving us back our freedom.  The reasons the regulations have been put into place are understandable but, they are also debatable. In this episode we explore if our rights are being unfairly taken away by the regulations that have been set in place. Are the curtailed laws overreaching ? Are they taking away our freedom unfairly?

Hey there beloved listeners.When you heard it, you must have had the same reaction as we did: 500 Billion Rand?! It's a tough number to wrap the head around, and that money doesn't just come out of thin air. In this next episode. We speak to friend of the show, Stuart Mansfield, chief audit executive from Investec, you'll recognize him from Episode 2, we're happy to have him back. As with the first Economic episode, we believe that wellness includes understanding the economic world, especially when numbers like five hundred billion that are being thrown around. In this episode we cover what this support package means, how it will be used and check in on the state of wellness in the country.TopicsUpdates on the economy since we last spokeWhat is the IMF and what is a stimulus package?Debt & DeficitsA country as a household, a GDP modelWhere is the R500bn going?Central Banks & Commercial BanksInflation, a really good example.PLEASE NOTE: We recorded this episode a few weeks back and have supplemented it with an update from Stu, the quality is a little different but important! FINALLY: We've left one error in the Podcast from when we recorded on May 22nd, if you can spot it.
