CORONA VIRUS
Coronavirus is an infectious disease that is spreading very rapidly from person to person. The Governments are imposing the lockdowns in their countries to restrain the spread of this disease. The lockdown is imposed to enforce the social distancing in their people so the infected people do not infect other people.
This virus is very dangerous as this is a new virus so there is no treatment or vaccine for that virus and doctors are gathering information fro the patients and asking them about the symptoms and they are informing this to other people about their information.
The main problem right now is
- Insufficient testing kits
- Insufficient ventilators
- insufficient medical kits
- insufficient I.C.U rooms
- Insufficient medicins
- Insufficient masks
- Insufficient hand sanitizers
- Insufficient task force
- Insufficient medical protective suits
- insufficient Quaretien places(for patients)
A very known pandemic in the whole world is the Corona Virus. Everyone is getting mentally ill and tense because of this pandemic. The outbreak point was china, Wuhan city in December 2019. The China Govt. locked down the city immediately after a day or two when the infection was spreading at the highest peak. They finally worked on it and controlled it successfully but now the people who traveled from China to different parts of the world spread that disease and now this virus has almost covered 200 countries.
Almost all countries have announced the lockdown situation in their countries. Life has just stopped.
The highest death rate is reported in the USA. The number of affected people is also reported in the USA in respect of other countries

How Coronavirus spreads:
As we all know that the virus is an infection it spreads very easily from person to person.
- When an infected person coughs in the air 20,000 droplets are released in the air. If the healthy person inhales or breathes in this air, he will inhale these droplets which will directly infect hi.
- If the infected person coughs at the material or at any other surface area and then after some time the healthy person touches that surface area and touches that hand on his/her mouth, eye or nose. He will definitely get infected from this virus.
- If the healthy person inhales from the air where the infected person is present will also get infected.
- There must be at least 3 meters distance from other persons if you are outside your home because you don't know who is infected and who is not infected
- The coronavirus may live on other surfaces for some time and ides after few hours.
- The infected person when sneezes, speaks or coughs, the droplets will fall on the surfaces and will infect those surfaces and will spread it very easily.
The materials on which Coronavirus stay and spread the viruses are:
