The pandemic has made the majority of us retreating at home. Because of this, people have been coming up with numerous ideas in order to keep themselves occupied. Not only are the variety of activities changing, but habits are also evolving due to the ‘New Normal’.
Here are the emerging trends during the pandemic:
Fashionable Masks
Disposable masks are usually available in three colors: blue, green and white. Before the pandemic, those were the masks that were commonly used by people. Ever since wearing masks are considered mandatory these days many are searching for masks in different colors and patterns. This surge of need has given designers an idea to use their fabrics/leftover fabrics as material to make fashionable face masks.
Cycling
First and foremost, Jakarta is not known for its cycling culture. The city is full of pollution and terrible traffic that it actually makes cycling harmful. Luckily since the road is quieter during the pandemic, the cycling community takes advantage of this condition to take their bikes out and cycle to their heart’s content. It becomes a trend afterwards when local cycling shops report profit gains and as people buy new bikes.
The healthcare business has always been on the rise but it is especially made even clearer during this pandemic. Following the evolution of technology and healthcare, many have finally decided to combine both to make telemedicine. Traditionally people consult healthcare professionals in offices, hospitals and healthcare centers (puskesmas), yet more and more people are reaching out to telemedicine as the solution to their health problems while also avoiding the chance of being infected at hospitals.
