Sample key takeaways from Chapter One: 

SARS-2, the strain of coronavirus that causes COVID-19, had been evolving for decades in bats, until it was transmitted to a human being in Wuhan, China. The first case of COVID-19 was confirmed on December 1, 2019. 
On January 23, 2020, the Wuhan government enforced a lockdown due to the infectious virus. By January 25, the Chinese government had closed off most of China. It was the largest enforcement of public health measures in human history. However, this didn’t stop the virus from spreading worldwide. 
The World Health Organization (WHO) declared COVID-19 to be a pandemic on March 11, about four months after the virus was transmitted to humans. By July 1, there were 130,761 recorded deaths in the United States and 518,135 deaths worldwide, with no end in sight.
