coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2), better known as the Corona virus, is a new type of
coronavirus that is transmitted to humans. This virus can attack anyone, such
as the elderly (elderly), adults, children and babies, including pregnant women
and nursing mothers.
Corona virus infection is called
COVID-19 (Corona Virus Disease 2019) and was first discovered in the city of
Wuhan, China at the end of December 2019. This virus is spreading very quickly
and has spread to almost all countries, including Indonesia, in just a few
months.
This has led several countries to
implement policies to impose lockdowns in order to prevent the spread of the
Corona virus. In Indonesia itself, a Large-Scale Social Restriction (PSBB)
policy was implemented to suppress the spread of this virus.
Coronavirus is a collection of viruses
that can infect the respiratory system. In many cases, this virus only causes
mild respiratory infections, such as flu. However, this virus can also cause
severe respiratory infections, such as lung infections (pneumonia).
This virus is transmitted through
sputum droplets from the respiratory tract, for example when in a crowded
closed room with poor air circulation or direct contact with droplets.
Apart from the SARS-CoV-2 virus or
Corona virus, viruses that are also included in this group are the viruses that
cause Severe Acute Respiratory Syndrome (SARS) and the viruses that cause
Middle-East Respiratory Syndrome (MERS). Even though it is caused by a virus
from the same group, namely the coronavirus, COVID-19 has several differences
from SARS and MERS, including in terms of the speed of spread and the severity
of symptoms. bandarq online
