The world is still reeling over the chaos caused by the Covid 19 virus. The disease that spread to every continent and the case numbers still continue to rise. Authorities in 222 countries and territories have reported about 237.3 million Covid‑19 cases and 4.8 million deaths since China reported its first cases to the World Health Organization (WHO) in December 2019. It has changed the way life functions.
After almost 2.5 years from its presence, the virus is still active and we are not out of the pandemic. After taking the lives of millions across the globe, life is slowly coming down to normalcy with many pros and conditions applied.

Britain was faster to reopen and relax restrictions than other European countries, and so reported the highest daily jump in new cases since mid-July.
