Abstract

Seven months since the first COVID-19 case was identified in Wuhan, China, the contagious and vastly transmissive virus has continued to spread and grow into a global pandemic affecting more than 20 million people. When the World Health Organization (WHO) announced a Public Health Emergency of International Concern, countries started imposing restrictions on local and international travel, as well as advocating the importance of social distancing to control the spread of the virus.
