ABSTRACT
Being isolated from the world, technology is sustaining the humanity. From online meetings to
online announcements, from online consultation to personalized treatment, from digital tracking of
risky areas to robotic treatment of corona virus infected patients; the technology is everywhere.
The current trendy terminology, like Isolation, Quarantine and Social Distancing; has alienated
humans from humans. The only connecting link is the technology. In other words, being
physically apart, the technology is keeping humans close to friends, relatives, business,
government and the health experts. A tweet announcing lockdown, the concept of telemedicines,
Arogya setu app, Cowin vaccination app, and covid resources dashboard; all these means are
result of the technology. In the pandemic time, humans, with the help of the technology, are
sustaining the world. As the relation between humans and technology is strengthening, the world
is getting closer to the next Industrial revolution i.e. 5th Industrial Revolution. Humans being
homebound are trying to exploit the technology to ease the life. They are designing websites
containing details of vacant beds, oxygen availability, ventilators and blood plasma. Government
is preparing digital platform to vaccinate the world. Health services are being provided digitally.
The current paper emphasizes intensifying human involvement with the technology in the
healthcare arena, which is inconspicuously giving rise to the 5th Industrial Revolution. Humans
are prime mover in Industry 5.0.
