SARC-CoV-2

SARS-CoV-2 is a virus that causes COVID-19, a respiratory illness that emerged in late 2019. It primarily spreads through respiratory droplets when an infected person talks, coughs, or sneezes. Symptoms can range from mild to severe and may include fever, cough, and difficulty breathing. Vaccines have been developed to help prevent the illness, significantly reducing its spread and severity. Public health measures, like wearing masks and social distancing, are also recommended to control outbreaks. Understanding SARS-CoV-2 is crucial for effective prevention and treatment strategies during the ongoing pandemic.
