¿WHAT IS CORONAVIRUS?

Known as COVID-19, it is an infectious disease caused by a new virus that

has not been detected in humans to date. The virus causes a respiratory
illness like the flu (influenza) with various symptoms (cough, fever, etc.)
that, in severe cases, can cause pneumonia.

HOW DOES IT SPREAD?

The virus spreads mainly from person to person, especially through

respiratory droplets that are produced when an infected person coughs or
sneezes. These droplets can reach the mouth or nose of people who are
nearby and possibly enter the lungs when breathing.
