About the Years of COVID-19
Politics
Ends: Dec 31, 2021
DESCRIPTION:
No one over the age of five years old in 2020, anywhere in the world, will forget 2020, the year of COVID-19. This global pandemic, believed to have originated in China, spread quickly throughout the world. Some countries, like China, New Zealand and Germany, acted quickly and minimized the effects of the first round (which we are still in on July 3, 2020 as we write this).
Other countries, particularly those trending toward anti-science or headed by an authoritarian executive branch, including the United States, Brazil and India, became epicenters with exponential growth. From less than ten cases in late December, 2019 to over 11 million cases and over 500,000 deaths worldwide by July 3, 2020, the Coronavirus has disrupted lives and economies, exposed racial tensions, healthcare inadequacies and political divides. It has shown the world who the true leaders are, and who they are not. Its end is as yet unknown.
What is known? The world will not look or feel the same going forward. COVID-19 is a watershed moment in history. What will come next, we will have to wait and see.
COVID-19 is shorthand for Novel Coronavirus first detected in 2019. Other versions of Coronavirus previously detected include MERS and SARS.
Coronavirus and COVID-19 are the only two internationally recognized names for this disease.
Update December 29, 2020
The United States continues to be the epicenter of the virus with 20 million infected in the US alone by year's end and more than 340,000 dead. Year end totals show over 82 million infected globally with 1.8 million deaths.
The good news is at least 2 vaccines have been approved for emergency use, and are being administered to frontline workers and those most at risk. Several others are due to be approved in the coming weeks. Scientists and health workers believe it will require the balance of 2021 to vaccinate enough people, meaning 2021 will also be the year of COVID-19.
