What is Corona Virus?

Writer's picture: KCPMedicalAdminAssistanceKCPMedicalAdminAssistance


Corona viruses are a group of viruses that look a bit like crowns (corona being the Latin word for crown). There are different kinds of corona viruses, most of which only cause mild symptoms and illness, such as a cold. Corona viruses are zoonotic, meaning they are transmitted between animals and people.  Detailed investigations found that SARS-CoV was transmitted from civet cats to humans and MERS-CoV from dromedary camels to humans. Several known corona viruses are circulating in animals that have not yet infected humans. Common signs of infection include respiratory symptoms, fever, cough, shortness of breath and breathing difficulties. In more severe cases, infection can cause pneumonia, severe acute respiratory syndrome, kidney failure and even death.
