Within a few months, it became a pandemic that dramatically changed life for nearly everyone on Earth. Millions of people became sick, and hundreds of thousands died.

In the Core Library Guide to COVID-19, readers will learn about the disease, how it spread across the globe, and the ways it has changed society.
