Corona viruses are non segmented,
single-stranded, and positive-sense
RNA genomes. six corona viruses have
been known to infect human hosts and
cause respiratory diseases. Among
them, severe acute respiratory
syndrome corona virus (SARS-CoV)
and Middle East respiratory syndrome
corona virus (MERS-CoV) are zoonotic
and highly pathogenic corona
viruses [1]
COVID-19 is an infectious disease
caused by the recently found virus
known as SARS-CoV-2 (or
coronavirus). Before the outbreak
originated in Wuhan, China on
December 2019, there was no
information about this virus
COVID-19
SYMPTOMS OF COVID-19
