Introduction
The spread of the virus from the laboratories of Wuhan city, China created havoc in the city and later on, engulfed the entire globe. This virus became popular as ‘Coronavirus’ though it was officially named as ‘Severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-COV-2)’ by the ‘International Committee on Taxonomy of Viruses (ICTN) world’ and gave rise to ‘Coronavirus disease 2019’ (COVID-19) named collectively by the World Organization for Animal Health and Food and Agricultural Organization (FAO) of the United Nations. WHO declared COVID19 as pandemic and issued precautionary measures in order to minimize the human-to-human transmission of COVID19. Though, the reverse migration of human beings from China to their respective home countries and conditions were worsened by the mobility within their home country. Ignorance and delayed actions worsened the situation of a country like Italy and the United States of America.
World Health Organization (WHO) divided the world into six regions viz. western pacific region, south-east Asia region, a region of the Americas, European region, Eastern Mediterranean region, and others. WHO kept a regular check on the spread of ‘Novel Coronavirus (2019-nCoV)’ and released situation reports at a regular interval of time. In these, situation reports WHO mentioned ‘to and fro’ visit China as the major cause of the spread of 2019-nCoV, and apart from this, people outside China got infected due to one or the other reason (parcels from China etc.). As per the situation report-22, China was the worst sufferer with 42,708 confirmed cases and responsible for the spread of Coronavirus. The situation report-22 shows that 159 people (across the globe) got infected during their visit to China and on their way back home infected many others. Likewise, 90 people were reported to be infected outside China (across the globe) due to one or the other reason. As per the situation report-22 of the World Health Organization (WHO), China got hit by the virus in the worst possible manner with 42,708 confirmed cases out of which 7333 were severe and 1017 people died (as on 11 February 2020). This report reflected a worrisome picture regarding the spread of Coronavirus and things turned into reality.

Countries like Italy, Spain, and the United States of America got hit by the spread of Coronavirus in the worst possible manner.
