Unfolding Everything About Coronavirus (Covid-19)

Coronavirus is a respiratory illness that is now considered a pandemic by the World. This disease is also popular by the name, Covid-19. The virus was first detected during an investigation into an outbreak of pneumonia in Wuhan, China. It has mapped over 162 countries and territories with no sign of stopping. This pandemic disease is now at such apex spread that WHO (World Health Organization) describes novel coronavirus as a “defining global health crisis of our time”. The cases are thriving up the charts, including numerous deaths reported across the globe, Covid-19 has now an official name “SARS-CoV-2” given by WHO.

The respiratory novel virus has spread massively since the nascent, with more than 7000 confirmed death cases. The main reason for the outbreak grew because of human transferal. The rampant virus can spread mainly among people in close contact with one another, and ideally, there should be a distance range over 6 feet. 

There are many guidelines given by the CDC (Centers for Disease Control and Prevention)  to prevent and curb the spread of the novel coronavirus. It is best to avoid traveling to the infected area.

What are the Symptoms? 

The Symptoms to notice during the coronavirus outbreak are as follows: 

These may appear 2-14 days after exposure stated by the CDC. 

• Fever

How Coronavirus can impact your life?

Currently, it is quite difficult to assess the malignancy of this deadly disease. Covid-19 is carried more readily between humans than Sars. Computer modeling (computer programming version of an analytical model for the biological or physical system) suggested this screening that, one in every new case of Coronavirus has infected 2.5 healthy individuals on an average. According to recent reports, Children are less prone to get infected, whereas older and middle-aged individuals can be disproportionately infected because of this virus.

According to research, men are more likely to develop this infection as compared to women. Because men bear weak immune responses in comparison to women. Patients with High blood pressure and Type 2 diabetes may have severe complications following this infection.

The incubation period of Coronavirus

The incubation period of this pathogen has estimated, to be in 5.1 days (95% CI, 4.5-5.8 days), and 97.6% will show the symptoms within 11.5 days (Cl, 8.2-15.6 days) of infection.

We can clearly understand by this estimation that out of every 10,000 cases 101 individuals are more likely to develop the symptom after 14 days of active quarantine or monitoring.

How is it transmitted?

Individuals with this infection will produce respiratory droplets when they talk, cough or sneeze, and breathe. Most of these droplets will generally fall on the ground. People who would come in close contact with the infected person can get affected by this. 

Scientists have not yet figured out any measures, but a preliminary research group has given this suggestion that a humid and hot environment can slow down the spread of this pathogen. 

As a precaution, it is always best to follow all the regulations set by the government.
