Hey thanks. I try to research my subject as far as I can, with as many different sources as possible, but this one weirdly proved hard to track down. Most of the books were either about how to treat the virus or how it developed, which, while part of the story, is not what I was looking for. A narrative of how it spread and how it affected the world was what I wanted. I didn't get that, so I had to cobble together facts from Wikipedia (as usual) and then add in my own personal experiences, research from one book where a guy in the UK kept his own personal diary from day one, and that's about it. I'm still working on it, but the plan next is to take each country separately and examine how the virus arrived, spread, was treated and eventually when vaccines became available, how the population responded. It's a work in progress. Thanks for your compliments.
