About Covid-19

Since first being identified as a new coronaviru­s strain in patients from the city of Wuhan in Hubei province, China, late last year, Covid-19 has spread around the globe.

The virus can cause pneumonia.

Those who have fallen ill are reported to suffer coughs, fever and breathing difficulti­es. You can find out more about the symptoms and the latest government guidance here.

There are things you can do to protect yourself and slow the spread of the virus. Chief among them are regularly washing your hands for at least 20 seconds with soap and water, and catching coughs and sneezes in tissues.

Due to the unpreceden­ted and ongoing nature of the coronaviru­s outbreak, this article is being regularly updated to ensure that it reflects the current situation as best as possible. Any significan­t correction­s made to this or previous versions of the article will continue to be footnoted in line with Guardian editorial policy.
