Nobel Corona is a family of coronavirus that causes severe illness to the human body, even sometimes it leads to death. Experts say it is actually a Flabio virus, which spreads quickly. It has high transmission power. The first case of corona infection appears in Wuhan, China. Since the virus is spreading all over the world like fire!
How did Coronavirus spread?
It is believed that the source of the recent outbreak of coronavirus is a market for illegal wildlife in the central Chinese city of Wuhan. Chinese health authorities and WHO (World Health Organisation) are investigating the outbreak of the recent coronavirus.
But some researchers have suggested that the Wuhan Seafood Wholesale Market may not be the original source of viral transmission to humans.
Symptoms:
Initially, its symptoms are difficult to understand. The virus is difficult to control because the antibiotics do not work in this case. Here are some common symptoms of coronavirus:
- Dry cough
- Fever
- Tiredness
- Difficulty in breathing (severe cases)
The symptoms are very similar to the common cold and cough. But continuous high fever with dry cough can be a red alert.
Older people, and people with other medical conditions (such as asthma, diabetes, or heart disease), maybe more vulnerable to becoming severely ill.
