"All of Wuhan shouts through their windows encouraging words to each other to fight the coronavirus."
Wuhan, a city in China, is currently under quarantine because of the coronavirus, which has now killed more than 425 people and has risen to more than 20,438.
But what is the coronavirus?
Coronavirus are a family of viruses that primarily produce respiratory infections. They can cause mild infections such as colds, but also more serious ones such as pneumonia. Initially thought to be passed from animals to humans (the outbreak started in an animal market in the Chinese city of Wuhan), it is now known that it can be passed from person to person, through droplets when coughing or sneezing.
The main symptoms of a Chinese coronavirus infection are Fever, cough (sometimes with respiratory secretions), difficulty breathing, headache, and general fatigue.
Currently there is no cure for the virus, there are no treatments, people can only be quarantined in hospitals or at home, waiting for all this to happen.
The year has begun with difficulties for China and the world, it could be that this virus becomes very dangerous due to the deaths and the way of contagion; we just have to wait.
Tell me, what do you think about all this? Do you think that the virus will go away or that a cure will be found? Should we be alarmed?
Hi everyone! I think that the coronavirus can be more dangerous than any flu or a cold. I think it can reach many more countries if they do not close the air and road borders, since Covid-19 is dangerous for its infectious potential quite quickly. Not only can we catch it, we can also be transmitters of the virus without realizing it or having the symptoms.
To avoid the virus I consider that we would have to follow the precautions for the virus.
You have to know what to do to protect yourself and avoid a possible pandemic.
Hello!
What an interesting theme! While reading your article I was thinking and I realize that in the few weeks this whole new has deplove a lot. Some of the news that I've been watching and reading, said that it might be a brandnew antidote for the Coronavirus; it is true that it have been proved on some of the patients and it's working, so let's hope that it can be cured! But let's not forget that it's really contagious for babies, kids, elders and people with a low immiunity system.
And answering to the last question, I think that maybe we shoud be a little bit alarmed about this "new" virus.
In my opinnion this theme, we must take it seriously because that illness is becoming a huge threat for our health. We are far of getting a cure because of the virus rising in a incomesurable speed, and so many people is getting sick of it. But to be honest there's also the factor that people overstimate this illness, because the possibilities of diyng because of it it's by 2%. For grant security for everyone we need to get calm and try to not contage the others.
In my opinion I think this theme have to take serious, because is a virus without cure and very contagious who can be a big problems for everyone, but more especific for persons like baby, kids, elders and persons with respiratory or inmunitary problems. But, although it has to be taken with importance, I think the people and news channels are exagerating a bit with this virus.
I think this situation are overreacted, it's true this can be alarming because this are very contagious and are expanding from differents countries, the level of persons with the virus are increasing but luckily the number of deaths for this is very low, and from now I see him quite unable to become…
