COVID-19
Corona virus disease (Covid-19) is an infectious disease caused by a new virus that has not been detected in humans before.
The virus causes respiratory disease (such as influenza) with symptoms such as coughing and fever, and it causes pneumonia in more severe cases. You can protect yourself by continuing to wash your hands and avoiding touching the face.
How is the disease spread ?
The new Corona virus is spread mainly by contact with an infected person when it coughs or sneezes, or by droplets, saliva, or nasal secretions.
Symptoms ?
Corona virus (Covid-19) has mild symptoms that include throat pain, coughing and fever. Some people can develop a more severe disease that may lead to pneumonia or difficulty breathing.
In rare cases, the disease leads to death. Older people and people with other medical conditions (such as asthma, diabetes or heart disease) may be more likely to develop severe disease.
Protection ??
Currently there is no specific drug to prevent Corona virus (Covid-19) disease.
You can reduce your risk of infection by:
Keep clean hands by rubbing them with an alcohol disinfectant, or by washing them with soap and water
Cover the nose and mouth when coughing and sneezing with a tissue or bending the elbow
Avoid contact with anyone with symptoms similar to the symptoms of a cold or influenza (keep a distance of 1 meter or 3 feet)
