UNSEEN ON COVID-19 FOR THE STUDENTS OF HIGHER SECONDARY SCHOOLS. Coronavirus is continuing its spread across the world, with eight million confirmed cases in 188 countries. More than 440,000 people have lost their lives.The virus, which causes the respiratory infection Covid-19, was first detected in the city of Wuhan, China, in late 2019.It then spread quickly across the globe in the first months of 2020.
The virus that causes COVID-19 is mainly transmitted through droplets generated when an infected person coughs, sneezes, or exhales. These droplets are too heavy to hang in the air, and quickly fall on floors or surfaces.
You can be infected by breathing in the virus if you are within close proximity of someone who has COVID-19, or by touching a contaminated surface and then your eyes, nose or mouth.
In India, total cases of coronavirus is nearing the 3.5 lakh-mark, as per the latest updates, with over 9000 deaths.
The coronavirus pandemic in India witnessed a new peak with the states registering 12,881 fresh cases in a single day — the highest so far.Covid-19 crisis has taught India to be 'Aatma Nirbhar', Says PM Modi;
COVID-19 affects different people in different ways. Most infected people will develop mild to moderate illness and recover without hospitalization.
Most common symptoms are -fever,dry cough,tiredness.Less common symptoms are-aches and pains,sore throat,diarrhoea,conjunctivitis,headache,loss of taste or smell,a rash on skin, or discolouration of fingers or toes.
The US has by far the largest number of cases - now more than two million and about 25% of the global total - according to figures collated by Johns Hopkins University. It also has the world's highest death toll, followed by Brazil and the UK.
In China, the official death toll is some 4,600 from about 84,000 confirmed cases, although critics have questioned whether the country's official numbers can be trusted.
Globally, at least 4.5 billion people - half the world's population - were living under social distancing measures at the height of the pandemic in Europe, according to the AFP news agency's estimates.
Those restrictions have had a big impact on the global economy, with the International Monetary Fund warning the world faces the worst recession since the Great Depression of the 1930s.
The United Nations World Food Programme has also warned that the pandemic could almost double the number of people suffering acute hunger.
The outbreak was declared a global pandemic by the World Health Organization (WHO) on 11 March. This is when an infectious disease is passing easily from person to person in many parts of the world at the same time.
The WHO has warned that the pandemic is a long way from being over and says people should be prepared for new outbreaks, especially in areas where lockdowns are eased.
