Report the use of COVID-19 by governments to enforce authoritative policies                                                                                                                                                                                               

 The January 2021 report of the American Friends Service Committee documents how local and state governments have implemented emergency measures under the guise of responding to the virus worldwide. Under the mask, the AFSC report identifies nine types of sanctions that indicate governments' tight grip on civil society. Explaining a global shift toward dictatorship, Kerry Kennedy, associate general secretary of international programs at the AFSC, told Common Dreams that restrictions on civil liberties have intensified over the past decade due to Cove 19. Kennedy said it was important to identify monitors and prevent the misuse and normalization of extreme measures that further limit urban space and harm underprivileged people.                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                          

Covid 19 shocked the world and governments had to make a number of decisions in an effort to stem the spread of the disease, including national lockdowns, travel bans, and large-scale testing. However, in many cases, extreme policies, such as banning or banning meetings, closing public places, and monitoring telecommunications systems, have been enacted without sunset provisions to eradicate the epidemic. But it will end these policies.

The AFSC report not only identifies civil liberties restrictions and government abuse of power under epidemic diseases, but also the resources for constructive response to these restrictions and violations. One of the resources for responding to sanctions on civil society organizations, for example, is a tool developed by Oxfam to monitor the extent of urban space - it is important for people to interact with each other. Organize, participate and communicate freely with obstacle .
