I. Read the text about the coronavirus carefully.
By now, most of us are aware of the outbreak of the disease started in Wuhan, China, caused by a new
by species called New coronavirus. They belong to a member of the coronavirus family that was first
identified in the 1960s.
But the crucial questions is, how did the recent outbreak occur? Well, like other coronaviruses, it has
come from animals too and it is a form of zoonotic disease. Many of those infected patients either worked
or frequently shopped in the Human seafood wholesale market in the centre of the Chinese city, which
sells meat and live animals. It is believed that virus might have been transmitted through direct contact
between human and animals either by touching those animals or consuming them, and it can also spread
via the air like other cold-causing viruses.
But we know so far is its symptoms and how it effects humans. Yes, a person infected from this disease
may suffer from dry cough, mild fever, and breathing issues, which may go unnoticed at first.
Also, it is believed that these viruses are more liked to infect older people and those with a weak immune
system that find it hard to fight these notorious viruses. But, is there any way to treat this disease?
