Between February 10 and March 27, 2020 the highest number of Google searches with the terms coronavirus or COVID-19 were recorded in Switzerland. That was the day on which the Swiss Federal Council decided on special measures to contain the virus in the country. After March 16, while Google searches about the disease once again decreased, media reporting about the coronavirus (COVID-19) peaked on March 19.
