The Coronavirus disease, or more commonly known as COVID-19, is a highly infectious disease. which has affected almost every country in the world (Yeo et al., 2020). Covid-19 was detected at the end of December 2019 in Wuhan city of the central Hubei province of China.
Sim (2020) in tracing the spread of the virus outside of China found that, the virus had initially spread to other countries within Asia such as Korea, and from there to the Middle East via Iran, reaching Southern Europe through Italy and Spain, after which it affected Northern Europe through the UK. The ongoing Covid-19 outbreak had also devastated South East Asian countries such as Singapore. As of February 25, 2020, Singapore recorded the fourth-highest number of confirmed cases (Liang et al., 2020).
Ross et al. (2015) have quoted previous research to highlight that in the past, infectious diseases had, with regularity, appeared and globally infected populations almost every decade, but recently, they contended that the frequency between pandemic was alarming as the duration between outbreaks seemed to be disturbingly shorter as evident with Covid-19 (2019), Ebola (2014), MERS (2012), H1N1 (2009), H1N5 (2007) and SARS (2003). In this respect, an important finding of Taubenberger and Morens’s (2006) study conducted on the 1918 influenza outbreak “which caused around 50 million deaths worldwide, remains an ominous warning to public health” is timely to note in the case of the current pandemic.
