COVID-19 case numbers as of March 26, 2020.

The novel coronavirus pandemic has now infected 462,684 worldwide and killed 20,834 people as of Thursday, according to the World Health Organization.

Utah has seen 402 confirmed cases of COVID-19 with one death as of Thursday, according to the Utah Department of Health.

The respiratory illness is especially hard on those who are elderly, immune-compromised or who have chronic health conditions. Children are not severely ill with COVID-19, as the resulting illness is called, unless they have an underlying condition, but they can transmit the illness.

The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention is one of many government agencies providing extensive resources and advice on managing this coronavirus.
