WHAT IS CORONA VIRUS? HOW DOES IT SPREAD? 

Coronavirus is a family of viruses that usually cause respiratory symptoms. The disease can be transferred between animals and humans. It belongs to the same class of virus that has caused several starts globally, like SARS (Severe Acute Respiratory Syndrome) and MERS (Middle East Respiratory Syndrome). 

As per research, it is believed that Coronavirus spreads through the secretory fluids of the respiratory system of an infected person. It commonly spreads when an infected person sneezes, coughs or exhales the infected respiratory droplet. Shaking hands or even touching the infected person or by touching the objects or surface that has been contaminated can act as the carriers of disease and get you infected by it.

Current estimates of the incubation period (the period between the infection and the emergence of symptoms) for Coronavirus ranges from 1 to 14 days with the median of 5-6 days. However, more data is required to have more careful and refined information.

PRECAUTIONS TO BE TAKEN FOR COVID-19.

WHO have given standard recommendations to minimize the chances of infection. 

👉Avoid outside exposure to suspected areas and infected people.

👉Wash hands with soap and water. Also, it is advisable to use an alcohol-based sanitizer (Recommended brands include- Lifebuoy: Immunity Boosting hand Sanitizer/Dettol: Original Instant Hand Sanitizer).

👉Keep your hands and fingers away from nose, eyes, and mouth. By doing so, you will eliminate the chances of the virus spreading if it is on your hands. 

👉Cleaning houses and surfaces with ethanol or chlorine-based disinfectants is advised.

👉Thorough washing and cooking of meat before consuming is advised.

👉While stepping out, make sure to cover your nose and mouth with a mask.


DIAGNOSIS

👉The detection of Coronavirus is done via respiratory and blood specimens. WHO has released several detection protocols for lab testing, and the results are generally available within a few hours to a few days. Seek help if you have worked with or around 2019-nCoV infected person or suspected areas like workplace or healthcare center.
