Coronavirus: Instagram accounts that help you understand Covid 19 better

The first case of Coronavirus was registered in the Wuhan city of China in December 2019. Since then this virus has affected over 170 countries and has been declared as a pandemic by the World Health Organisation (WHO). According to the latest reports by WHO, there are 209,839 coronaviruses, and the number of deaths so far is 8,778. In terms of cases, India has registered over 200 cases so far. The highest number of cases has been registered in Maharashtra, followed by Kerala and Delhi. 

When it comes to reading about Coronavirus, multiple sites are providing accurate information, but then there are WhatsApp forwards and other social media posts that are circulating fake posts which is not only confusing the citizens but is instilling more fear about the situation. So to get a clear idea about the situation, here are some Instagram accounts that you can refer to.
