This article presents the status of countries affected by COVID-19 (as of mid-May
2020) and their preparedness to combat the after-effects of the pandemic. The
report also provides an analysis of how human behavior may have triggered such a
global pandemic and why humans need to consider living sustainably to make our
future world livable for all. COVID-19 originated in the city of Wuhan, China in
December 2019. As of mid-May, it has spread to 213 countries and territories
worldwide. The World Health Organization has declared COVID-19 a global pandemic,
with a death toll of over 300,000 to date. The U.S. is currently the most
impacted country. Collaborative efforts of scientists and politicians across the
world will be needed to better plan and utilize global health resources to combat
this global pandemic. Machine learning-based prediction models could also help by
identifying potential COVID-19-prone areas and individuals. The cause of the
emergence of COVID-19 is still a matter of research; however, one consistent
theme is humanity's unsustainable behavior. By sustainably interacting with
nature, humans may have avoided this pandemic. If unsustainable human practices
are not controlled through education, awareness, behavioral change, as well as
sustainable policy creation and enforcement, there could be several such
pandemics in our future.
