What is "Covid-19"?
COVID-19 is an infectious disease caused by the SARS-CoV-2 virus. It mainly spreads when an infected person talks, coughs, or sneezes, releasing saliva or mucus. Symptoms can vary but commonly include fever, cough, fatigue, body aches, and loss of taste or smell. While most cases are mild, some individuals may experience serious complications, particularly older adults and those with underlying health conditions. Preventive measures like wearing masks, practicing good hand hygiene, and getting vaccinated help reduce the spread of the disease and protect people against serious illness.
Example
COVID-19, caused by the novel coronavirus SARS-CoV-2, emerged as a global pandemic in early 2020.
Symptoms of COVID-19 can range from mild respiratory issues to severe pneumonia and acute respiratory distress syndrome ( ARDS ).
Preventive measures such as wearing masks, practicing social distancing, and washing hands frequently are crucial in reducing the spread of COVID-19.
