COVID-19 is an infectious disease caused by severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2). The disease was first identified in 2019 in Wuhan, the capital of China's Hubei province, and has since spread globally, resulting in the ongoing 2019–20 coronavirus pandemic.
Common symptoms include fever, cough, and shortness of breath. Other symptoms may include muscle pain, sputum production, diarrhea, sore throat, loss of smell, and abdominal pain. While the majority of cases result in mild symptoms, some progress to pneumonia and multi-organ failure.
The best advice right now for staying safe from coronavirus is to simply stay home and practice social distancing. We know that's not possible for everyone so here are some resources to help keep you and your family as healthy as possible during this extraordinary time.
Keep your home safe & encourage your family members to, clean hands at the door and at regular intervals, disinfect surfaces like doorknobs, tables, and handrails regularly, create habits and reminders to avoid touching their face and cover coughs and sneezes & increase ventilation by opening windows or adjusting air conditioning
