The coronavirus emerged a year ago in Wuhan, China, and swept across the world. It brought joblessness and lockdowns, infirmity and death to all corners of the globe. But each nation has its own story of how it coped. Read AP's PandemicAtlas project:

https://apnews.com/article/pandemics-brazil-israel-india-coronavirus-pandemic-c1ba685119fd12108dd6d89f2fb89702The virus that first emerged a year ago in Wuhan, China, swept across the world in 2020, leaving havoc in its wake. More than any event in memory, the pandemic has been a global event. On every continent, households have felt its devastation — joblessness and lockdowns, infirmity and death. And an abiding, relentless fear.

Spain witnessed the deaths of thousands of elders. Kenyans watched as schools closed and children went to work, some as prostitutes. India’s draconian lockdown brought the rate of infection down — but only temporarily, and at a horrific cost.

KelceyFox9 Well, we know where it came from. The question now is how do we control it? Close contact with others, cover nose and mouth when coughing or sneezing, sanitize common areas touched. Masking, hand washing, limit close contact. Ways to enforce generally whole or partial lockdown

Emerged, as in shot out of millions of 2-legged cannons.

😎😷

A VACCINE IS FANTASTIC;however, the “will of the people” will succeed in beating C19. We are coming out of our 2nd WAVE, distancing, lockdown,masks & basic hygiene has ensured success.Govt support. Little habits, with massive effects. Bigger sacrifices with astonishing results.

There have no more/extra deaths in the UK this year; compared to than any other year, for decades.

Wow. Some truth finally from the AP.

Close the wet markets in China for good.

Wow best fear porn yet!

No. Over-reacting governments panicks, violated every public health standard, and destroyed their own economies. Covid is now a LOW MORTALITY VIRUS. This is not public health; this is POWER of oppression

The virus was exaggerated and caused unnecessary panic. Then the medical health industry complex used the opportunity to make trillions.

But, it’s like the flu. It will go away by June. 🙄

But, gah!!! Globes don’t have corners!!!

So strange how very few excess deaths there have been despite the raging pandemic ....

Somehow China only had like 5000 cases , seems strange to have so few cases at the epicenter unless they planned and caused it

whoa whoa whoa...'it' did not bring lockdowns. Politicians brought lockdowns. and look how good thats working out.
