The virus causes acute disease in the lungs, and belongs to the family of coronavirus, which has crown-like appendages, and from which it got its name “Corona”, because it is one of the “straight curauna” viruses, one of the coronavirus species.
“Corona” is one of the viruses with “RNA”, and this genetic formation allows it to rapidly replicate within cells, and spread quickly between humans, which threatens a global epidemic, and with this rapid replication of the virus helps to cause “genetic mutations” in it, which causes A permanent change in the structure of its genetic tape, which makes treatment of this virus difficult.
And to prevent corona virus, like other viruses through the use of vaccines, which is not yet available for the corona virus, and its transmission to humans, it moved from snakes and bats through a genetic mutation, and provides appropriate medical care for the patient, as well as the role of the human immune system that can identify Against the virus and eliminate it, but any immune defect in the body may increase the effect of the virus.
Those at risk due to the Corona virus are elderly people with HIV and chemotherapy recipients. Despite this, the death rate due to the virus is low compared to other viruses, but its spread is easier due to its long incubation period before any symptoms appear on the person, Symptoms of the SK virus include dry cough, high body temperature, and difficulty breathing.
