India is charging the Muslim leader with culpable homicide. The Muslim leader held a meeting last month and authorities are lead to believe that the meeting is the main cause of the coronavirus outbreak. It is to be believed that Indonesia, Malaysia, and Bangladesh were taken into quarantine after they had attended the meetings.  The police initially filed a case against Muhammad Saad Kandhalvi for violating the ban on big gatherings because of the virus but now invoked the law against culpable homicide. The Delhi police had one report against him and then later 304 more were added on. At the beginning of the month, there was a third of the 3,000 coronavirus cases at that time were people who attended the meeting or those who were later exposed to the infected people. India's tally of coronavirus infections has since jumped to 12,380, including 414 deaths, as of Thursday. The meeting was held in Delhi India. Delhi has almost 19 million people. The towns around Delhi have smaller numbers of the population. The coronavirus spreads quicker if the is a higher population. It spread through Delhi really fast due to the number of people. It will continue to spread to the nearby cities. Delhi is close to the top of India. It is close to Pakistan and Nepal. The virus is more likely to spread there before it spreads to Telangana which is south of Delhi.

For this assignment, I picked Yemen and Omen.

Yemen:

102.2 males per 100 females

55.5 people per sq. km

3.3 children per woman

29.3 Million population

46.1 million estimated for 2050

Oman:

117.9 males per 100 females

11.5 people per sq. km

2.8 children per woman

3.6 million population

5.4 million estimated for 2050

 

Yemen and Oman's numbers are similar when it comes to the child per woman and males to 100 females. There are more people per square km in Yemen than Oman. There is a very low percentage of people that are 75 years and older. Oman's numbers are almost the same as Yemen's but Oman has a lower percentage of 10-19 years old.

There is a big difference in population between the population in Yemen than in Oman. There is a 25.7 million difference in the current population to be exact. There is also going to be a drastic population level in 2050.

As everyone knows by now, the coronavirus has been announced a pandemic. It is spreading wildly across the world. South America has been hit with the coronavirus as well as everywhere else in the world. There have been a total of 2,041 cases in South America. There 10 reported recoveries and 19 reported recoveries. All 12 of the countries in South America have been affected by this virus. Brazil has the most cases of the virus due to Brazil being so big. Brazil has 651 confirmed cases. The virus is in the middle of brazil and will most likely spread throughout the entire country. Suriname has the least number of cases. Suriname has 4 confirmed cases of the Coronavirus. The larger countries are the places that have the most cases due to the populations. Most of the cases arrived in South America in late February and the beginning of March. The treatment is either self-care or medical treatment. There is a vaccine that is being created to reduce the number of people that get affected by the coronavirus.
