Coronavirus infection



What is Coronavirus?

Coronavirus is a kind of common virus which causes an infection in your nose, sinuses, or upper throat. Most coronaviruses aren't dangerous.
But recently in 2020, after a December 2019 outbreak in China, a new type of Coronavirus is identified by World Health Organization, which can be fatal. The organization named the disease it causes COVID-19.
The outbreak was quickly moved from China around the world. It spreads person-to-person contact as other Coronavirus do.
Symptoms can show up anywhere from 2 to 14 days after exposure. Early on, they're a lot like the common cold.
  • Fever
  • Cough
  • Shortness of breath
Infections can range from mild to serious. If it leads to pneumonia, respiratory failure or septic shock the virus can turn deadly. Those most at risk of death are the elderly and people with weakened immune systems.
What to Do About Coronavirus?
There is no vaccine for coronavirus. To help prevent a coronavirus infection, try avoiding the common cold:
  • Wash your hands thoroughly with soap and warm water or with an alcohol-based hand sanitizer.
  • Keep your hands and fingers away from your eyes, nose, and mouth.
  • Avoid close contact with people who are infected.
You treat a coronavirus infection the same way you treat a cold:
  • Get plenty of rest.
  • Drink fluids.
  • Take over-the-counter medicine for a sore throat and fever. But don't give aspirin to children or teens younger than 19; use ibuprofen or acetaminophen instead.
Humidifier or steamy shower can also help ease a sore and scratchy throat.
If you get sick, treat your symptoms and contact a doctor if they get worse or don't go away.
Stay safe, Live happy….
