It cause illness to people ranging from normal cold to Middle East respiratory syndrome and severe acute respiratory syndrome.


History of Corona Virus Symptoms


The introduction about what exactly is this corona virus of 2019 they're calling it as it turns out it was discovered on the last day of 2019 December 31st,

            So what are the symptoms and what's going on with this virus clinically so there was a great article that was published in The Lancet just recently about this about 41 patients that came in to the hospital there and were diagnosed with molecular technique to show that they actually had the virus for the corona virus in those patients about 41-98 percent of them had fever 76% had coughed and 55 had shortness of breath 




Molecular Technique Of Corona Virus Symptoms


 What did they find this is a pretty good indication of if you're sick enough to go to the hospital this is what you might expect so just so you're aware 100 percent of these were confirmed with molecular technique of being the 2019 and CoV which is the corona virus so what was the median age, median age was 49 so these are not old people 73% of them were men and surprisingly only 32% had underlying co morbidness, now what's interesting is that 66% of these people that were hospitalized were exposed to that specific meat market and as I mentioned there was one family grouping that seemed to have gone to this meat market that came down with this virus what's concerning is that it took about eight days to develop the shortness of breath in those patients who did develop shortness of breath after the illness so in other words there was an incubation period of maybe about a week or two and then there was the illness that lasted for eight days and then there was the shortness of breath and what did that shortness of breath lead to in a hundred percent of the cases there were signs of pneumonia on chest CT and 29% of these patients developed a RDS which is a pretty serious and significant lung disease leading to the last statistic here was that the mortality was 15% so there's about six patients that died as a result of this and one of them was a young man that had no co morbidness.

 Symptoms Of Corona Virus In Human


The symptoms of Corona virus in initial stage are quite common and quite hard to identify or diagnose the Corona virus. The world Health Organization ( WHO) has reported that the cold, cough ,fever , shortening of breath as well as others breathing difficulties are the symptoms of corona virus in the initial stage. Later on , its lead to the Pneumonia , sever acute respiratory syndrome, failure of kidney as well as other failures of body organ.

The incumbent period of corona virus is still not confirmed but most perceptions are leading towards the period of about 10-14 days.
