What is COVID-19 coronavirus?

Coronavirus is not the name of a single virus. Coronaviruses are a group of viruses that attack the respiratory tract, so named for the crown-like thorns on their surface. This virus can cause illness in both animals and humans. Coronavirus is highly contagious and can spread quickly from one person to another. Coronavirus is highly contagious and can spread quickly from one person to another. They are notorious for transforming themselves quickly and acquiring new qualities. Coronavirus can cause diseases ranging from the common cold to life-threatening pneumonitis/lower respiratory tract infections, especially in vulnerable populations.

 In humans, several coronaviruses have caused respiratory infections. This can range from the common cold to serious diseases like Middle East Respiratory Syndrome (MERS) and Severe Acute Respiratory Syndrome (SARS). The novel coronavirus, now renamed COVID-19 or SARS COV-2 is a new strain of coronavirus, which has not previously been detected in humans.

The symptoms are usually mild and do not require special treatment in most people. Some patients may even be asymptomatic, meaning they do not show any symptoms. However, some people have severe symptoms such as chest pain or pressure, shortness of breath or speechlessness, or reduced ability to move. They may require immediate medical attention or even hospitalization.

Symptoms may appear within 2-14 days of exposure to the virus and the severity of the virus. The most commonly known symptoms include fever, dry cough, and fatigue.

• Aches and pains in the body.
• Runny nose and sore throat.
• Diarrhea
• Loss of sense of taste and smell
• Rash on the skin

According to research from 2020, the percentage of occurrence of these symptoms is:

• Dry cough-60.4%
• Fever – 55.5%
• Shortness of breath- 41.1%
• Sore throat – 31.2%
• Fatigue-68.3%
• The most common symptoms of COVID-19 are fever, fatigue, and dry cough.
• Some patients may have aches and pains in the hands, nasal congestion, runny nose, sore throat, or diarrhea. These symptoms are usually mild and start gradually. Although some people are infected, they do not show any symptoms and they do not feel sick.
• Most people (about 80%) have been cured of the disease without requiring any special treatment.
• About 1 in every 6 people with COVID-19 become seriously ill and have difficulty breathing.
• Older people, and those who have underlying health problems, such as high blood pressure, heart problems, or diabetes, are more likely to develop serious illnesses with it.
• Similarities between symptoms of COVID-19 and previous coronaviruses include fever, dry cough, shortness of breath, and bilateral ground-glass blurriness on a chest CT scan
• A unique feature of COVID-19 – invading the lower airway tract with symptoms of URI, in some cases, chest radiography shows infiltration in the upper lobe of the lobe, associated with hypoxemia and increased shortness of breath)
• Compared to patients infected with MERS-CoV or SARS-CoV, patients infected with Covid 19 have more gastrointestinal symptoms such as diarrhea.
