The turn of the new year has seen the Wuhan city in China plagued by the novel coronavirus. But the shockwaves of the virus have penetrated other countries as well. So far, the virus has caused over 600 deaths along with more than 31,000 confirmed cases of the virus from which only a little under 1700 have recovered successfully, Johns Hopkins reports.
The tech world has also been affected. In particular, supply chain hits and store closings are the corollaries of the novel coronavirus to tech behemoths like Apple and Samsung Electronics. But for now, let"s take a bird"s eye view of how the virus has changed the metropolitan landscape of Wuhan, China.
Coastal areas have also seen deforestation after the authorities rushed to build two hospitals within days. One of these hospitals, Huoshenshan, was completed in under ten days.
