In December 2019, an outbreak of a novel Coronavirus, also called severe acute
|
|
respiratory syndrome coronavirus-2 (SARS-CoV-2), began in the Wuhan region of
|
|
China. This virus can cause the COVID-19 disease.
|
|
|
|
This novel Coronavirus is spreading globally at a disturbing rate, which keeps
|
|
everybody on top of the news. The media worldwide is covering the spread of
|
|
the virus constantly, and a lot of people are tracking the number of cases
|
|
in their country.
|
|
|
|
The Coronavirus integration tracks the number of people that are confirmed with,
|
|
recovered from, and deceased caused by the virus in your country, or worldwide.
