CORONA
COVID-19 VIRUS
Coronavirus
(CoV) is a large family of viruses that cause diseases, ranging from the common
cold to more severe illnesses, such as Middle East Respiratory Syndrome
(MERS-CoV) and Severe Acute Respiratory Syndrome (SARS-CoV). Most coronaviruses are harmless viruses. Coronavirus is a zoonotic virus, meaning that
this virus is spread through animals and humans. Quoted from WHO, the investigation shows that
the corona virus that causes SARS (SARS-CoV) is transmitted from ferrets to humans. Meanwhile, animals that transmit
coronaviruses that cause MERS (MERS-CoV) to humans are dromedary camels. There are also several other viruses found in
animals, but have not infected humans.
Corona virus in humans was first discovered in 1960 in the nose of
patients affected by the common cold (common cold). Two coronaviruses in humans, namely OC43 and
229E, are responsible for the occurrence of a portion of the common cold. This
virus is named based on crown-like projections on its surface. "Corona" in Latin means
"hello" or "crown".
The spread of coronavirus is the same as viruses that cause other flu,
such as from coughing and sneezing, or from the touch of an infected person. Almost all people have been infected with the
corona virus at least once in their lifetime, usually occurring in
children. Coronavirus is a virus that
generally appears in the fall and winter in the United States. However, everyone can get this virus at any
time.
Coronavirus
is a virus that has many types. The name
is usually distinguished by the severity of the disease caused and how far it
has spread. Medical News Today said,
currently there are six types of corona viruses that infect humans, namely:
229E; NL63; 0C43;
HKU1. The more rare types of
coronavirus are MERS-CoV which causes Middle East Respiratory Syndrome (MERS)
and SARS-CoV, which causes Severe Acute Respiratory syndrome (SARS). In addition to the six types of coronavirus
above, on January 7, 2020, as reported by the website of the world health agency,
WHO, the Chinese government confirmed a new type of corona virus that was
endemic in late December. The new corona
virus is a type that is not similar to other corona virus groups. Initially, the virus was named the
coronavirus novel 2019 (2019-nCoV) until finally the official name was
SARS-CoV-2, the cause of Covid-19 disease.
SARS-CoV-2 causes Covid-19 is suspected of transmitting from animals of
bats and snakes to humans. Even so, this
virus has also been confirmed to be transmitted from human to human. This outbreak was first reported to emerge
from the city of Wuhan, the capital of Hubei Province, China, on December 31,
2019. So, this virus is also called the Wuhan Virus. The corona virus, which is currently endemic
at the end of December 2019, is anticipated in the next month of January 2020.
That is when Chinese authorities isolate the city of Wuhan with the aim of
slowing the spread of the deadly virus.
According to WHO World Health Organization records, to date it has been
detected in 76 countries, with 3,162 fatalities, 92,860 infected and 48,252
curable. The most affected country was
China reaching 95% (80,152 infected, 2,945 died). The next countries included in the top 10
infected with corona are: South Korea, Italy, Iran, Japan, France, Germany,
Spain, the US and Singapore. It is not
only the country that has contracted the corona even the Indonesian State has
been affected by this virus. this was
announced by President Joko Widodo (Jokowi).
At a press conference in Jakarta, Monday (2/3/2020), Jokowi said 2
Indonesian citizens were positively corona.
Indonesian citizens who are positively exposed to the virus by the name
Covid-19 are a 64-year-old mother and her 31-year-old daughter. This mother and child live in Depok, West
Java. Both were exposed to the Corona
virus after, a girl danced with a Japanese citizen. This Japanese citizen is also a close friend
of the 31-year-old woman who contracted the corona. Both the mother and her
child who were exposed to the corona virus are now being treated at Prof.
Infection Disease Hospital Dr. Sulianti Saroso, North Jakarta. "Contracting from the Japanese. The Japanese went to Indonesia, then went to
Malaysia, after checking it turned out to be corona positive, the team from
Indonesia had immediately searched right then, "Jokowi said.
Corona Covid-19 virus continues to
spread. A person can be infected with
COVID-19 through a variety of ways, namely: 1) Accidentally inhaling saliva
splashes from sneezing or coughing sufferers of COVID-19; 2) Holding the mouth or nose without washing
hands first after touching an object affected by saliva splashes of COVID-19
sufferers; 3) Close contact with
sufferers of COVID-19, for example touching or shaking hands. Corona virus can infect anyone, but the
effect will be more dangerous or even fatal if it occurs in elderly people,
pregnant women, people who are sick, or people whose immune systems are
weak. Corona virus infection or COVID-19
can not be treated, but there are several steps that doctors can take to reduce
symptoms and prevent the spread of the virus, namely: Referring people with
COVID-19 to undergo treatment and caratina in the designated hospital; Provide fever and pain relievers that are
safe and in accordance with the patient's condition; Encourage sufferers of COVID-19 to get enough
rest; Encourage sufferers of COVID-19 to
drink lots of water to maintain body fluid levels.
The
distribution of the corona covid-19 virus in administrative areas is
increasingly one-sided. Along with the
discovery of new cases in Jambi and North Maluku, now the plague has affected
22 provinces out of a total of 34 provinces in the country. 65 added from the previous day. Of the total cases, which have recovered 30
people, 49 patients died. The 22 provinces
are: Bali (6), Banten (56), In Yogyakarta (5), DKI Jakarta (353), West Java
(59), Central Java (15), East Java (41), West Kalimantan ( 2), East Kalimantan (11), Central Kalimantan
(2), South Kalimantan (1), North Sumatra (2), Jambi (1), Riau (1), Riau Islands
(5), Lampung (1), North Sulawesi (2),
Southeast Sulawesi (3), South Sulawesi (2), Maluku (1), North Maluku (1), Papua
(2). In addition there were 8 cases in
the verification process in the field.
The dead patients were recorded in DKI Jakarta (29), West Java (9),
Central Java (3), Banten (3), Bali (2), East Java (1), North Sumatra (1), South
Sulawesi (1). The data is the result of
calculations until 12.00 WIB on Monday (3/22/2020). The Liputan6.com team continues to monitor
the progress of the case until 00.00 WIB, Tuesday (03/24/2020). Movement of data is monitored through
official local government sources and tracking teams throughout the
region. From the results of the search
to enter Tuesday, March 24, 2020 at 00.00 WIB, there were no new positive
patients with corona covid-19.
In
my opinion because with the COVID-19 many people are taking the opportunity for
this condition. like a pretty high price increase on masks and hand sanitizers.
and there are also many people who hoard goods to get big profits, which
incidentally many people really need.
