The world is increasingly focused on COVID-19. By March 23, 2020, according to the World Health Organization (WHO), 332,935 people had been diagnosed with COVID-19 in 190 countries and territories around the world and 14,510 had died.[1] In the United States, 35,530 people have been diagnosed with the disease and 473 people have died.[2] These numbers are likely an underestimate, due to the lack of availability of testing, and will, without a doubt, rise.
