ARTICLE ON COVID-19
Coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) is defined as illness caused by a novel
coronavirus now called severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-
CoV-2; formerly called 2019-nCoV), which was first identified amid an outbreak of
respiratory illness cases in Wuhan City, Hubei Province, China.

It was initially reported to the WHO on December 31, 2019. On January 30, 2020,
the WHO declared the COVID-19 outbreak a global health emergency. On March
11, 2020, the WHO declared COVID-19 a global pandemic, its first such designation
since declaring H1N1 influenza a pandemic in 2009.

Illness caused by SARS-CoV-2 was termed COVID-19 by the WHO, the acronym
derived from "coronavirus disease 2019. " The name was chosen to avoid
stigmatizing the virus's origins in terms of populations, geography, or animal
associations

Who is at risk?
Having a health condition does not make you more likely than anyone else to come
into contact with coronavirus.

But it appears people who are older, those with weakened immune systems and
people who have underlying chronic conditions, including heart disease, diabetes, or
asthma, are more at risk of severe effects if they do catch it.

Most people start to recover from coronavirus quickly after a few days' rest. For
some people, it can be more severe and sometimes life-threatening. The symptoms
are similar to other illnesses that are much more common, such as cold and flu:

 a cough

 a high temperature

 shortness of breath

People at higher risk include those who are over 70, regardless of whether they have
a medical condition or not, and people under 70 with any of the following underlying
health conditions:

 chronic (long-term) respiratory diseases, such as asthma, chronic obstructive pulmonary disease
(COPD), emphysema or bronchitis

 chronic heart disease, such as heart failure

 chronic kidney disease


 chronic liver disease, such as hepatitis

 chronic neurological conditions, such as Parkinson's disease, motor neurone disease, multiple
sclerosis (MS), a learning disability or cerebral palsy

 diabetes

 problems with your spleen - for example, sickle cell disease or if you have had your spleen
removed

 a weakened immune system as the result of conditions such as HIV and AIDS, or medicines such as
steroid tablets or chemotherapy

 being seriously overweight (a BMI of 40 or above)

 those who are pregnant

Everyone is being told to follow social-distancing measures to help reduce the


chance of catching and spreading coronavirus. And 16m people in higher risk groups
are strongly advised to follow the advice.
