In December 2019 the Chinese authorities notified the world that a virus was spreading through their communities. In the following months it spread to other countries, with cases doubling within days. This virus is the “Severe acute respiratory syndrome-related coronavirus 2”, that causes the disease called COVID19, and that everyone simply calls Coronavirus.  What actually happens when it infects a human and what should we all do?

Guys, THANK YOU! I have no idea how you managed to create yet another informative video in such a ridiculously short amount of time... I'm already spreading this like wildfire to make sure we are all informed! :D

L4m3ness

Well done! You deserve to get some sleep now ^_^

Thank you so much for making this video. You guys are awesome for putting this out in such a short amount of time and with information changing each day. Get some sleep!

Aaaand this is the video that has convinced me to become a patron. Kurzgesagt provide a public service.

Been waiting for this one! Great work as ever ❤️

They've done plenty of those already, just check their video library. 😉

Awesome! Nicely done in such a short time.

You all are amazing as usual!

Amazing. Will you make a german version as well? I'm a medical professional working in a rural area in Germany and I would like to use it to educate my patient base.

Gaëtan Perrault

They have done previous collaborations with German organizations. They probably have the expertise somewhere but it is likely a large body of work, so they probably need some volunteers to cover these languages.

I have to say I was skeptical when you first announced it. Will it be a powerpoint slideshow with infos that are outdated within a week? Well, I was wrong. You couldn't have done it better.

Amazing work as always, this will

Love the video and all the work you do, but I have to say making this video "patron-only" seems in really poor taste. I know each video must take an incredible amount of time and energy and rushing to create one must be doubly-hard, but the idea that only people who pay will get to see this video seems like a mistake to me.

This video made me become a patron. Y'all keep up the amazing work, and please, for the love of god, get some sleep

Great work guys! When it comes to keeping people informed you guys are seriously the best, keep it up!

I'm pretty sure this is the only video on Youtube that mentions coronavirus that won't be banned.

Leak

Well, it vanished from my YouTube subscriptions page (though the soundtrack and several other coronavirus-related videos stayed) - so make of that what you will... :/

Good thing patreon notified me. The video didn't show up on my subscription feed O.o

You did a great job! You make me well informed about the virus. This is very helpful.

Dear Kurzgesagt family, this will be your most watched video ever. Awesome as always! But here comes a friendly reminder: you forgot to finish the video with your typical tools. People who did not hear kurzgesagt before may not feel what kurzgesagt is, discover your other work - they may think this is a standalone video. It would be good if you add the patreon and pledging part to the end before you open/launch the video to everyone. Good luck! And thanks for the great job!

Bart Spiesschaert

Great video as always 😊. But I do want to point out one thing regarding the mention of secondary bacterial infection. Many deaths from flu are caused by secondary bacterial pneumonia  and heart attacks that develop after the flu has weakened someone's resistance. With Covid-19, most deaths are caused by acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS), which causes already-damaged lungs to fill with fluid, and makes breathing difficult. Unlike pneumonia, there is no pharmaceutical treatment for ARDS.

great video...very well explained and gives more focussed information in a single video...!

It’s very impressive this video was put together in such a short time!

No link to "our world in data" sigh. :) great video

I'm a huge fan of Kurzgesagt and really appreciate the way you present facts - a refreshing experience in a media landscape full of disinformation and BS. Thank you so much - I just became a patron and support your creations <3

It's amazing how effective these simple procedures can be at managing the spread of the virus and heartening to see how we're coming together as a global society to combat this threat. Thanks for another great video! Everyone stay safe!
