How Robots are helping humans to fight against Coronavirus?

The robot has been a most controversial topic since it's existence because some people argue that robots are going to finish the existence of human beings and human work in factories and industries but actually robot is an electro-mechanical device which follows a set of instructions to carry out certain jobs, but literally robot means a 'slave' and it is very useful for doing the task that the humans can only imagine.

In the present scenario of Coronavirus people are being lockdown at their home and can not come in contact with other people as he/she may be infected and the possibility of the spread of this virus increases. So. there comes the concept of Roberts and how they are enforcing humans to stay at home and implement the government policy of Lockdown.

In Tunisia, Robot cars start patrolling the streets in an effort to enforce the country’s lockdown. They are patrolling the streets and asking the people why they are outside.

Roberts has been used from the past to battle the diseases and even in the hospital to provide the medical facilities to the users. From taking temperatures remotely to helping with hand washing, robots are helping with healthcare around the world. According to Lara Lewington, In the battle against coronavirus robots are also being used to give the sanitizer and approaching people to stay safe and wash hands regularly. She also mentioned that robots can be a very useful thing in such cases where people cannot go outside due to the spread of the virus and after Tunisia, large countries like UK and USA are also approaching the use of robots to battle against Coronavirus.
