School closure was employed as a measure to shut down the spread of the disease. The roles of science educators in the pandemic period among others include how history of science traced other pandemics and how they were able to tackle and downplay political ambitions of the government over the pandemic. Awareness campaigns on mitigation of COVID 19 impact revealed efforts of many countries to fight the monster – COVID 19.
