Believed to have originated in Wuhan, China, the Coronavirus has infected 29.4 million people in over 213 countries, and has claimed more than 933,000 lives. The global economy, which was already going through a slowdown, is in complete tatters, which is why corporate houses are compelled to resume work as soon as possible. While experts claim that the peak hasn’t been crossed yet, resuming business poses serious health risks, and this makes programs like TrustOne extremely important.
