Understanding COVID-19
As the world grapples with the COVID-19 pandemic, understanding the virus and its impact on health and wellness has become paramount. Nasseri Medical Centre & Medspa is dedicated to providing our valued patients and community members with comprehensive information about COVID-19.
What is COVID-19?
COVID-19, commonly known as coronavirus disease 2019, is a respiratory illness caused by the SARS-CoV-2 virus. It originated in Wuhan, China, and quickly spread worldwide, leading to a global pandemic. The virus primarily spreads through respiratory droplets when an infected individual coughs, sneezes, or talks.
Signs and Symptoms
The symptoms of COVID-19 can range from mild to severe and may appear 2-14 days after exposure to the virus. Common symptoms include:
- Fever
- Cough
- Shortness of breath
- Fatigue
- Muscle or body aches
- Headache
- Sore throat
- Loss of taste or smell
- Congestion or runny nose
- Nausea or vomiting
- Diarrhea
Prevention and Safety Measures
To help prevent the spread of COVID-19, it is essential to follow recommended safety measures:
- Wear a face mask in public settings
- Maintain at least 6 feet of distance from others
- Wash your hands frequently with soap and water for at least 20 seconds
- Use hand sanitizer with at least 60% alcohol if soap and water are not available
- Cover your mouth and nose with a tissue or your elbow when coughing or sneezing
- Clean and disinfect frequently-touched objects and surfaces regularly
