Covid 19 🩺
What is this virus ?
Most of these are reported from the United States, India, Brazil, Italy, France, Spain and the United Kingdom. The virus continues to spread in other countries. However, there has been a slight slowdown in the spread of the virus, with many countries restricting their day-to-day activities and restricting their people to their homes (lockdowns).
The World Health Organization (WHO) has declared the coronavirus a global pandemic due to its easy transmission from person to person in many parts of the world.
The coronavirus is a large 'family' of viruses that cause illnesses that can range from the common cold to severe chronic respiratory illness. However, the new coronavirus (nCoV) virus has not been identified in humans.
Coronavirus is transmitted from animal to human. Detailed tests have previously shown that the SARS-CoV virus (SARS-CoV), which has spread around the world, has been transmitted to humans by camels and MERS-CoV. Several coronaviruses that have not yet infected humans have been identified as circulating among animals.
A person infected with this virus can develop symptoms such as respiratory illness, fever, cough, shortness of breath and difficulty breathing. In more severe cases, pneumonia, severe chronic respiratory disease, kidney failure and even death can occur.
