University of Auckland professor Siouxsie Wiles and Spinoff cartoonist Toby Morris’ animated graphic shows how social distancing, when taken seriously by an individual, can make a huge impact in reducing the spread of the disease.
COVID-19 is a type of coronavirus that causes an infection that has now spread all over the world.
There are many kinds of coronaviruses. Most cause the common cold. But other coronaviruses are more serious.
COVID-19 is new and hasn’t been seen in people before. And for some people, it can become serious and dangerous.1
COVID-19 is tricky because someone can have the virus and give it to others, but not seem sick.
