The Average worldwide deaths for the coronavirus is the 5th highest in the world but its getting the most media mentions. Tuberculosis kills 1,000 more on average than the coronavirus.

A lot of countries are flattening the curve, for example : Us, Uk, Italy, Canada, Germany...
However, there are countries who are now going up. Brazil and Mexico are now going up and so is Peru. This means that South America is now starting to get more cases and deaths.

This infographic shows that the US has the most cases, however this doesn't mean that it has the most cases or deaths per million people. Belgium has the highest amount of deaths per million people and they aren't getting the focus like the US has.

Taiwan has 23 million citizens and only has 252 confirmed cases of the virus. The island is only 81 miles form the mainland (china). Taiwan has learnt lessons from the 2003 SARS epidemic and built up their public health infrastructure to be able to quickly respond to future crises. Also they started screening passengers flying in from wuhan on the 31st of December. Also within a week, they started screening everyone who had recently traveled to either Wuhan or the Hubei province. Taiwan also instituted border controls, school closures, quarantine orders and set up a command center for quick communications between the local governments and their citizens.

South Korea has 50 million people and currently has 9,241 confirmed cases of COVID 19. South Korea initiated a system of patient 'phone booths' to get people tested for the disease quickly and safely. One person at a time walks behind a glass-walled booth and grabs a handset, this is connected to a hospital worker on the other side of the glass. This allows the hospital worker to swab the patient without exposing themselves to the virus. Then the hospital gives back the results of the test within seven minutes. South Korea  has learnt lessons from the 2003 SARS epidemic and built up their public health infrastructure to be able to quickly respond to future crises.

Vietnam has a population of more than 96 million and had 153 confirmed cases. Vietnam has learnt lessons from the 2003 SARS epidemic and built up their public health infrastructure to be able to quickly respond to future crises. Also they started screening passengers flying in from wuhan on the 31st of December. They started to host press conferences at least once a day - where they gave honest information about the status of the coronavirus.

The lessons we learned from the SARS pandemic is to report any outbreaks of a disease earlier. China reported the outbreak after more than a dozen deaths. Also to invest more time and money to help the places that were effected by the virus. They were talking about making a vaccines for disease X.

Wuhan has some major rail way connections to the bigger cities in China. This means that the virus could have spread very quickly through the whole of China. This has contributed to the spread of the disease because the virus can stay on metals for 3 days. There is also an international airport in the middle of Wuhan. Which could have spread the virus very quickly to the rest of the world.

Why does the virus have different names?

Why does the virus have different names?

# data[].attributes.body
The official names are:
The disease is called: COVID-19,  this because COVID stands for coronavirus disease and 19 for the year it appeared 2019.
The virus is called: severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2).
Viruses are named by their genetic structure by virologists.
Diseases are names to be able to discuss treatment for infected humans.

They are saying that the virus has come from the Huanan seafood market in Wuhan and that the virus was from an animal. Meaning it is a zoonotic virus, scientists are saying that it originated through bats and that it traveled through another species on its way to infecting humans. They are saying that the animal is the pangolin. The outbreak first started when China reported a few cases of pneumonia in Wuhan. On the 12th of January, China shared the genetic sequence of COVID-19. Then it started spreading all over the world. First case outside of China was Thailand, a man who had come from Wuhan China. There are also other theories about it coming out of a lab in Wuhan that was near the seafood market.

Covid 19- moved to Italy and more countries by relocation diffusion because of flights from Wuhan. This is also network diffusion because of the networks between China and Italy. The Chinese government closed Wuhan when they knew that it was dangerous. So that it couldn't spread through the rest of the world.

Contagious Diffusion: is one of the main ways that the virus spread at the beginning. Especially in big cities with high population density. The virus is contagious and can be passed from people being close to each other. An example is the Bangkok BTS, there are many people packed in a sky train which can make the spread of virus very quick by coughing and sneezing without wearing a mask. Solution to this is to have a 1 meter rule, so that the virus cannot spread quickly.

Hirerarchial diffusion: This happened in a lot of places, for example in Bangkok. It spread to Bangkok because of flights from China, then people who travelled by public transport back to the north or back the their homes outside of the city. There was a route from Bangkok to smaller rural cities because of the spread of people.

Local: Thailand has been affected by the Corona, Bangkok has been hit the hardest. You can see that the cases spread out on a route. Lost of locals who live in Bangkok have traveled back home before lock down and brought the virus to the rest of Thailand.

Regional: Europe has been very affected by the corona virus.

Global: Trends globally is that most of the countries in the world have been affected by the virus.

Wuhan is located in the Hubei province in Eastern China. It is 839.5 km from Shanghai. It is the capital city of the province. The Yangtze river runs through the whole city. The population density is 1,200 per km2. This is one of the reasons why the virus spread so quickly because people are so close together.
