What is corona virus after all
According to mynamy news, Corona virus is a virus that can make animals and humans sick. It is an RNA virus, which means that it breaks into cells inside a body and uses them to regenerate itself. The corona virus is spreading in Wuhan, China like never before. Therefore, not much information is available about it.
Experts believe that the corona virus comes from a family of viruses that infect humans, cattle, pigs, chickens, dogs, cats and wild animals.
Until this new corona virus was identified, there were only six different corona viruses to infect humans. Four of these caused a mild common cold disease. However, since 2002, there have been two new corona viruses that can infect humans and make them seriously ill.
According to the World Health Organization (WHO), the virus is linked to seafood and is thought to have originated from a seafood market in Wuhan city of Huawei province, China. Corona virus belongs to the family of viruses and people are getting sick from it. The virus is also entering many animals including camels, cats and bats. The WHO has also expressed apprehension that the virus can spread from one person to another.
How does this virus spread
This disease can spread to people only through cough and sneeze, this means that this virus can be easily transmitted to anyone. Apart from this, it can also spread through close contact, kissing or sharing utensils through saliva. Because it infects the lungs, the droplets released from the mouth while coughing can also infect the person present.
What are the symptoms
Symptoms begin to appear at least 14 days after becoming infected with the virus. In corona virus patients usually see early symptoms like cold, cough, sore throat, difficulty in breathing, fever. These symptoms then cause pneumonia and kidney damage.
Corona virus treatment
There is no cure for corona virus at this time. Antibiotics do not fight viruses, so their use is futile. Although antiviral drugs can come in handy, it takes years to understand and solve a new virus.
There is no vaccine available so far to get rid of the corona virus. Scientists are making vaccines to treat this virus.
