Coronavirus - what is it?
Coronaviruses are a large family of viruses that infect the nose and upper throat. 99% of people have contracted a coronavirus infection at least once in their life. Most often this happened in childhood.
The study says the first patients got the infection from animals. This unusual virus is spread by airborne droplets and by touching / shaking hands.
Symptoms:
Patients may experience fever, as well as shortness of breath, labored breathing and body aches.
The dangerous thing about this disease is that some symptoms may not appear immediately, while the infected person will already be contagious to others.
Treatment
Patients are advised to get plenty of rest and drink plenty of water. If you develop symptoms similar to those of coronavirus, you should see your doctor right away.
We recommend not to go to the clinic, but to call a doctor at home!
