COVID-19, caused by the SARS-CoV-2 virus, emerged in late 2019 and quickly became a global pandemic. It primarily spreads through respiratory droplets when an infected person coughs, sneezes, or speaks. Symptoms vary widely, ranging from mild to severe and can include fever, cough, fatigue, loss of taste or smell, and difficulty breathing. Severe cases can lead to complications like pneumonia or organ failure, especially in older adults and those with pre-existing health conditions.
Diagnosis and Prevention
COVID-19 is diagnosed through molecular (PCR) or antigen tests, which detect the virus in respiratory samples. Preventive measures include wearing masks, practicing hand hygiene, maintaining social distancing, and getting vaccinated. Vaccines have proven highly effective in reducing severe illness and hospitalization.
