NEW YORK — March marks two years since the coronavirus pandemic upended life across the globe.
Although the nationwide quarantine was initially meant to last only 14 days, in the hope of slowing down the spread of the virus, two weeks eventually turned into a two-year ordeal, lasting far longer than health experts had initially predicted.
It was only when positive cases reached U.S. soil that most Americans began to take notice of the growing crisis. Now, despite the creation of vaccinations and treatments, there have been nearly 965,000 American lives confirmed lost to the virus. "This is a different beast that we're dealing with. It is going to be weeks, and weeks, and weeks, weeks and weeks. This is going to be a long day, and it's going to be a hard day, and it's going to be an ugly day, and it's going to be a sad day," Cuomo warned the public during one of his press conferences that March.In the days that followed, there would be a growing demand for COVID-19 tests, across the country, as more Americans began to exhibit symptoms.
At the time, there were still no antiviral treatments or vaccines available to support health care workers as they faced an onslaught of patients in need.By March 9, there were more warning signs that the virus would soon wreak havoc on the country, when an automatic circuit breaker safety mechanism was activated to stop stock prices from free falling.
