Be aware of Coronavirus or COVID-19

It is a large family of viruses (COVID-19) that can cause respiratory, enteric, hepatic, and neurological diseases and cause mysterious illnesses ranging from the common cold to more severe diseases such as MERS-CoV and SARS-CoV. It is a new strain that emerged in December 2019, reported in Wuhan, China and now spread to a number of countries around the world. According to WHO, Coronaviruses are zoonotic and are transmitted between animals and people.

Infected people will experience mild to moderate respiratory illness and can recover without requiring special treatment. People with high immunity power have less possibility of being infected. Even if they are contaminated, with some safety measures they can be recovered. Mainly the people of older age, children, and those with underlying medical problems like cardiovascular disease, diabetes, chronic respiratory disease, and cancer are more likely to get affected by this disease.

How it’s Transfer?

According to the exploration of WHO, it is found that SARS-CoV was transmitted from civet cats to humans and MERS-CoV from dromedary camels to humans. This disease is mainly transferred from person-to-person. It seems to be spreading easily and sustainably in the community in some affected areas.

This virus can transfer from one infected person to a healthy person by physical contact. It can also spread by touching on a surface or object that has the virus and later touches on their nose, mouth or eyes.

Preventive Measures

There are no specific vaccines or treatments discovered to date for COVID-19. So, the best way to prevent it is, slow down its transmission by spreading the knowledge about the disease it causes and how it spreads. If every single person takes small steps of washing hands or using an alcohol-based rub frequently and not touching the face can protect themselves and others from infection.

Avoid close contact

If you feel unwell stay home and self-isolate. Keep a distance of 1 meter or 3 feet with the people who are ailing.
