The world has hit a crisis with the arrival of COVID-19, known to the general public as Coronavirus. It came without warning and is spreading like wildfire, continuing to shake the world causing much disruption to people and their lives.

Today we are facing a global pandemic. The virus has infected and killed thousands of people but the origins currently remain unknown and the number of those infected continues to change from day to day.
