A Review: Corona Virus (SARS CoV-2) that Causes COVID-19
Abstract
Coronaviruses are widespread zoontic viruses; they cause infection in humans. Colds is the most common disease caused by these viruses. They are also responsible for severe diseases such as MERS and SARS. SARS-CoV-2 is the new member of these viruses. It causes human respiratory infections; the most important symptoms of this disease are fever, dry cough, and shortness of breath. This may develop into other symptoms such as kidney failure. 80% of infections recover without the need for medical intervention. To date, it has been linked with the deaths of approximately 700,000 people worldwide, including 93 deaths in Libya. General hygiene such as washing hands, taking a distance not less than a meter, and covering the nose and mouth while coughing and sneezing are among the most important personal measures in reducing the spread of the disease and the occurrence of infection.
