The 2020s (pronounced "twenty-twenties") is the current decade that began on January 1, 2020 and will end on December 31, 2029. The COVID-19 pandemic is a disease spreading in 2020. Over 6 million people have been infected. Most countries do not allow people to go to work, school, or other events, because that would spread the disease. It also caused the coronavirus recession.
