1.Describe a Current State problem (hypothetical or actual) in bullet format.
2. Identify the causes that are leading to the current state problem.
3. Select 1 cause and conduct a 5 why(or less) exercise to get down to the Root Cause
4. Once the Root Cause is identified, identify Countermeasures that specifically address the Root Cause.
5. Future State is what the outcome/process will look like when the Countermeasures are implemented and successful.
thank you.
1. Current state problem
2. The cause of the current state problem is the transmission of covid19 virus from speculatively bats/ snakes eaten in the country China's district of Wuhan. It owns one of the largest sea food market which have varied species of animals ranging from fish to bats to even dogs which it serves to its population. This virus is found generally in bats which after being eaten by human beings gets transmitted to them. And it has become well known communicable disease in humans.
3. The only root cause of this problem is the consumption of bats/snakes.
4. The countermeasure that should be taken to protect from such problems is banning such animals like bats/snakes from consumption by the humans. Also we can trying being vegans and respect other forms of lives ( bearing CNS- central nervous system like animals and not plants)
5. If we follow the countermeasure discussed above, we will never face such a pandemic in the first place, which is certainly the course of action to be followed in future.
