Description - Guide to Covid-19: The Spread of COVID-19 by Martha London

In late 2019, health officials noticed a new disease spreading in Wuhan, China. They named it COVID-19. Within a few months, it became a pandemic that dramatically changed life for nearly everyone on Earth. Millions of people became sick, and hundreds of thousands died. Leaders ordered whole states and countries to stay home to slow the disease's spread. Companies closed or went out of business. Meanwhile, health-care workers on the front lines saved lives and raced to find treatments. In the Core Library Guide to COVID-19, readers will learn about the disease, how it spread across the globe, and the ways it has changed society. COVID-19 was first recognised in Wuhan, China, but within a few months it spread to every corner of the globe. The Spread of COVID-19 traces the pandemic during those perilous early months, as health officials and world leaders reacted to the new disease and the scope of its impact became clear. Features include a glossary, references, websites, source notes, and an index. AGES: 9 to 11
