Social Distancing Around the World in Photos
Take a look at some of the world's busiest landmarks that are all now but eerily empty.
Governments around the world are continuing the restrict non-essential travel both domestically and abroad to help decrease the spread of COVID-19. There are now over 200,000 cases globally and over 8,000 deaths. Beyond traveling by plane, train or automobile—many local governments have implemented lockdowns, curfews or encouraged social distancing with the hope of helping to stop the spread of the disease.
