Abstract

The World Health Organization (WHO) has declared that coronavirus 2019 (COVID19) is a pandemic. A concerted effort is needed to curb the spread of the virus. Epidemics have been described as “widespread and affecting more and more people. The last reported global outbreak was the H1N1 flu in 2009.[1,2] On 31 December 2019, a collection of cases of unknown pneumonia was reported, in the city of Wuhan, Hubei province in China, by the World Health Organization. In January 2020, a new previously unknown virus.[3,4] was identified, called the 2019 coronavirus, and samples obtained from cases and genetics analysis showed that this was the cause of the outbreak. The coronavirus novel was renamed Coronavirus Disease 2019 (COVID-19) by WHO in February 2020.[5] The virus is referred to as SARS-CoV-2 and the associated disease is COVID-19.
