There have been few safe havens from the coronavirus pandemic, which has wrought havoc around the world. The numbers on COVID-19 "scoreboards" maintained by media outlets change so fast it's impossible to keep up with them.

Every U.S. state has been infected, and medical experts say the worst is yet to come.
