Abstract

The pandemic COVID-19 is one whose impact is unparalleled in history. Although advances in technology have helped in containment, the pandemic spread still poses a strong challenge. This has resulted in countries of the world gathering resources, both intellectual and financial, to combat a common enemy. In spite of this, there appears to be an increase in the spread globally with countries recording daily deaths and increases of up to a thousand and more. Reports indicate that the countries that were most affected by this pandemic are located in Europe and North America (World Health Organisation, 2020).
