What impact has COVID-19 had on your life? The COVID-19 pandemic was caused by
the novel coronavirus SARS-CoV-2, which has had a profound effect on every aspect of our
lives. The outbreak which began in late 2019 in Wuhan, China, has spread to practically every
country and has had a significant detrimental influence on society, the economy, and mental
health. It has also become a watershed event that is putting humanity to the test in ways that few
could have predicted.

In a damp market in Wuhan, where it is believed that COVID-19 initially surfaced, the
virus most likely passed from animals, most likely bats, to people. This zoonotic transmission
emphasizes the importance of wildlife preservation and proper animal husbandry. When the virus
entered people, its efficient capacity for human-to-human transmission became a significant
factor in the pandemic. Due to respiratory droplets and close contact with infected individuals,
the virus spread swiftly. The virus quickly spread across a connected globe from its original core.
International travel and trade contributed to its spread, highlighting the challenges of limiting
pandemics in a globalized society containment attempts were made more difficult since the virus
can spread through asymptomatic carriers who unintentionally infect others. The greatest harm
caused by COVID-19 has been to people’s health numerous numbers have died and millions of
