0Windows 10 Search now gives easy access to COVID-19 info
Windows 10 is now making it easier to access the latest Coronavirus information via new buttons show in Windows Search.
Starting this week, when clicking in the Windows Search field, a new section called "Get the latest coronavirus updates" will be displayed.
This section contains a 'View interactive map' button that opens Bing's COVID-19 tracker and a 'See Headlines' button that opens up to the latest Coronavirus news on MSN.
Microsoft has already started to rollout out this new Windows Search feature to 33 markets and will continue to roll it out worldwide over the next week.
COVID-19 Tracker released as an app
Microsoft has also released the Bing COVID-19 Tracker as a standalone app in the Microsoft Store.
In our tests, the app can be a little buggy and tends to crash when being resized.
Otherwise, it provides the same information as can be seen on Bing.
