The 2019–20 coronavirus pandemic was confirmed to have spread to the Netherlands on 27 February 2020, when its first COVID-19 case was confirmed in Tilburg. It involved a 56-year-old Dutchman who had arrived in the Netherlands from Italy. There are currently 2,051 confirmed cases of infection in the Netherlands and 58 infected patients have died.[1] The first death occurred on 6 March, when an 86-year-old patient died in Rotterdam.[3]
Timeline[edit]
January 2020[edit]
As of 22 January 2020, the main international airport Schiphol was not taking extra measures against the spread of the virus, stating the lack of direct flights from or to Wuhan.[4]
February 2020[edit]
26 February: the Dutch foreign ministry updated its travel advice for Italy, advising citizens not to travel to areas affected by the COVID-19 outbreak.[5]
27 February: the first confirmed case of COVID-19, a man who had been in the Lombardy region of Italy was admitted to Elisabeth-TweeSteden Hospital in Tilburg.[6][7]
28 February: a second case confirmed, a woman from Amsterdam who had visited the Lombardy region in Italy was in home isolation in Diemen.[8] She is an employee of the Academic Medical Center in Amsterdam.[9]
29 February: third and fourth cases confirmed, the husband and the youngest child of the second case.[10] On the same day the wife and daughter of the first case were also confirmed to have the virus.[11] Another case is a woman from Delft who is isolated at home.[12][13]
March 2020[edit]
1 March: three new cases were confirmed: a 49-year-old woman from Nieuwendijk who had been hospitalised at Erasmus MC in Rotterdam, a woman in Tilburg and a man in Dalen, Coevorden. The 49-year-old woman had been admitted to the Beatrix Hospital in Gorinchem on 21 February before being transferred to Rotterdam later. She arrived at the Beatrix Hospital with respiratory problems and stayed in intensive care for a week. A test for SARS-CoV-2 was not conducted since she had no connection to infected areas or people. Therefore, her infection went unnoticed for over a week. On 1 March it was announced that she had COVID-19 and that she had been relocated to Erasmus MC due to her deteriorating condition earlier. Since then the Beatrix Hospital went into lock-down out of precaution for a few days. Only personnel was allowed to enter and leave the building. The hospital fully reopened on 5 March, after all employees had tested negative.[14][15][16]
4 March: the total number of cases was 38, which included one person passing through the Netherlands who was isolated in Hoofddorp.[17][18] The next day this number more than doubled to 82. According to Bruno Bruins, Dutch minister for Medical Care, this is due to a catch-up in conducted tests.[19]
6 March: the RIVM announced the first death due to COVID-19, an 86-year-old patient.[3][20]
7 March: 60 new cases reported, bringing the total to 188 cases.[21]
8 March: 76 new cases reported, bringing the total to 264 cases. Two deaths were reported bringing the total to 3.[22]
9 March: 57 new cases reported, bringing the total to 321 cases. More than one-third of these were found in North Brabant.[23][24] One death was reported bringing the total to 4.[25]
10 March: 61 new cases reported, bringing the total to 382 cases.[25]
11 March: 121 new cases reported, bringing the total to 503 cases. One death was reported bringing the total to 5.[26]
12 March: 111 new cases reported, bringing the total to 614 cases.[27]
13 March: 190 new cases reported, bringing the total to 804 cases. Five deaths were reported bringing the total to 10.[28]
14 March: 155 new cases reported, bringing the total to 959 cases. Two deaths were reported bringing the total to 12.[29]
15 March: 176 new cases reported, bringing the total to 1,135 cases. Eight deaths were reported bringing the total to 20. The Public Health Service (GGD) estimated that as of this day, 6,000 people in the Netherlands had been infected. This is because since 12 March people with mild complaints had not been tested anymore.[30]
16 March: 278 new cases reported, bringing the total to 1,413 cases. Four deaths were reported bringing the total to 24.[31] In the evening Prime Minister Mark Rutte addressed the nation about the coronavirus. It was the first time a prime minister had adressed the nation since the 1973 oil crisis.[32]
17 March: 292 new cases reported, bringing the total to 1,705 cases. 19 deaths were reported bringing the total to 43. A total of 314 patients have been admitted to the hospital.[33]
18 March: 346 new cases reported, bringing the total to 2,051 cases. 15 deaths were reported, bringing the total to 58.[1]
Public measures[edit]
Until 9 March 2020, no substantial public measures were put in place to limit the spread of the virus.
On 9 March, the prime minister Mark Rutte asked citizens to stop shaking hands.[34]
On 10 March, stricter measures were introduced in the province of North Brabant. Larger events were banned, including professional football, a number of dance festivals, carnival parades and concerts. A scholarship program was cancelled at the University of Eindhoven. In addition to this, the mayor of Tilburg Theo Weterings called to limit social contacts for a week.[35]
On 12 March, the government announced new measures that will be in effect through the end of the month. All events (concerts, sports) and all work meetings with more than 100 people are now forbidden and the RIVM is encouraging people to work from home. The restriction also applies to museums. All Dutch universities will suspend physical teaching until 1 April, but online teaching will continue. Schools remain open.[36] In response to the new regulations, the next day many civilians started mass purchasing food and medicines, resulting in empty shelves in supermarkets. Prime Minister Mark Rutte had to appeal to the nation to stop this behaviour.[37]
On 13 March, the government cancelled all flights from China, Iran, Italy, and South Korea, the countries with the highest number of coronavirus cases, for two weeks. Flights leaving the destinations before 18:00 on that day could still land in the Netherlands.[38]
On 15 March the measures were tightened up. Schools and childcare centres will remain closed until 6 April, as well as cafés, restaurants, sports clubs, saunas, sex clubs and coffeeshops.[39]

- The Eurovision Song Contest 2020 was scheduled to take place in Ahoy Rotterdam from 12 to 16 May.[40]
- TwitchCon Europe 2020 was scheduled to take place at RAI Amsterdam Convention Centre in Amsterdam from 2 to 3 May 2020[41][42]
