News headlines around the world are currently dominated by stories about the rapid spread of coronavirus (COVID-19) globally. Stock markets have seen huge drops. Countries are increasingly taking drastic measures in an attempt to curb the spread of this dangerous virus.

The imposition of restrictions on movement, the enforcement of periods of self-isolation and the potential forced closure of schools, offices and other public places, all have a dramatic impact on the ability of people to go about their daily lives.
