Coronavirus timeline: 3 months of global upheaval

A pandemic has been declared, schools and shops from New York to New Delhi shuttered, half the global population is confined in some form, while governments have scrambled to announce massive aid packages amid recession fears.On January 8, 2020, the World Health Organization says cases of pneumonia reported since December in the central Chinese city of Wuhan, could be due to a new coronavirus strain.

The illness, at this stage generally described as a form of flu, appears particularly dangerous for older or more vulnerable people.In the hope of slowing the spread of the epidemic, Chinese authorities take the radical step of confinement, first locking down the city of Wuhan and then, on January 25, the whole of Hubei province, cutting off its 56 million people from the rest of the world.

The doctor was among a group of people who sounded the alarm about the virus in late December, only to be reprimanded and censored by the authorities in Hubei province. Accounts from Italian medical staff raise concerns as they describe increasing numbers of sick people needing treatment, shortages in medical equipment and overwhelmed hospital wards.The US begins sealing its borders to foreign visitors from Europe.

Curfews and states of emergency multiply in various countries, sparking fears over the erosion of civil liberties. In Madrid, an ice rink is turned into a morgue. In New York, emergency field hospitals are opened in Central Park. South Korea also tracks cases through use of technology, which is more difficult to employ in countries with stricter privacy laws.
