Covid-19 / Coronavirus
Covid-19 refers to Coronavirus Disease
2019. The word “coronavirus” comes from the crown-like projections of the
virus. “Corona” in Latin means “halo” or “crown”. Coronaviruses are the type of
viruses that typically affect the respiratory tracts of birds and mammals,
including humans. Doctors associate them with the common cold, bronchitis,
pneumonia, and severe acute respiratory syndrome (SARS). Most recently,
authorities identified a new coronavirus outbreak in China that has now become
a global threat. It has the name coronavirus disease 2019 or Covid-19. Symptoms
of the disease include sneezing, runny nose, fatigue, cough, fever, sore throat, etc. However, symptoms vary from person to person. Young children, people aged
65 years or older, and women who are pregnant have the highest risk of
developing complications due to Covid-19. To prevent transmission, people
should stay at home and rest while symptoms are active. They should also avoid
close contact with other people. Covering the mouth and nose with a tissue or handkerchief
while coughing or sneezing can also help prevent transmission. It is important
to dispose of any tissues after use and maintain hygiene around the home.
