People have been using their creativeness during the outbreak to come up with ways to communicate.

A lot of people took part in virtual table quizzes last night.

Users took to platforms such as Microsoft Teams or Zoom to have joint parties.

Another trend which has taken off is artists hosting living room gigs.

Chris Martin from Coldplay was one of the first to do the #TogetherAtHome initiative.
