There is a big buzz lately about this new coronavirus that is now affecting humans, particularly in the Middle East Asia and Europe. This virus previously affects only mammals and birds, but not it seems that it evolves big time!
The report shows that more than 30 people have been infected with 18 deaths so far. The virus can be passed to humans through prolonged contact and WHO said that human to human transmission is highly possible.
So what is this coronavirus anyway? Is this really an emerging threat?
According to
WikiPedia, these viruses are species of coronavirinae, a close family of coronaviridae. Coronaviruses are enveloped viruses with positive-sense RNA genome. The name coronavirus is derived from latin word corona, which means crown or halo. The surface of this virus is crown-like which is why it was termed as coronavirus.
Discovered in the 1960s, this virus attacks the upper respiratory system and its most famous type is the severe respiratory syndrome or SARS.
The new virus was confirmed last year, a 60 year old who died in Saudi Arabia then followed by a 49 year Qatari national. Since it was discovered in the Middle East, the new coronavirus is called Middle East respiratory syndrome coronavirus (MERS-CoV).
Symptoms of Coronavirus
There are no exact or accurate symptoms of coronavirus because it depends on many factors such as transmission, the virus power and its stages. In most confirmed cases, the symptoms includes the following:
- fever
- cough
- shortness of breath
- breathing difficulty
These symptoms may seem to be less serious, making this virus so hard to diagnose. In animals however, the virus affects not only the respiratory system, but all other systems and is in fact a big threat in the farming industry. WHO however states, that the new virus transmission’s probability is very limited and the public is still at low risk of being infected.
Treatment and Prevention
There are no accurate treatment for this virus and there are no available vaccination. The best possible way to treat a confirmed coronavirus infection is through acute respiratory treatment found in most hospitals.
With that said, prevention is the best way to avoid this virus. You need to avoid places that have confirmed patients with coronavirus. If you think you have the symptoms, don’t ignore it and consult with your physician.
You have to isolate yourself from the crowd if you think you are infected. Fever and respiratory symptoms are the most likely signs. In public, keep away from people with colds, cough and flu. Wear a mask and stay away from affected countries such as the Middle East Asia and Europe, particularly in London.
Conclusion
Coronavirus doesn’t seem to be an emerging health threat. But if it is not contained by health authorities, then it is better that you are updated and informed with regards to this kind of virus. Immediately get your doctor’s advise once you have prolonged symptoms such as fever, colds, cough or breathing difficulty.
