Coronaviruses (CoV) are a broad family of viruses that can cause a variety of conditions, from the common cold to more serious illnesses, such as the coronavirus that causes Middle East respiratory syndrome (MERS-CoV) and the one that causes respiratory syndrome. acute severe (SARS-CoV). A new coronavirus is a new strain of coronavirus that has not been found before in humans.
Coronaviruses can be passed from animals to people (zoonotic transmission). According to exhaustive studies in this regard, we know that SARS-CoV was transmitted from the civet to humans and that transmission of the MERS-CoV from the dromedary to humans has occurred. Furthermore, it is known that there are other coronaviruses circulating among animals, which have not yet infected humans.
These infections are usually associated with fever and respiratory symptoms (cough and dyspnea or shortness of breath). In the most severe cases, they can cause pneumonia, severe acute respiratory syndrome, kidney failure, and even death.
The usual recommendations for not spreading the infection are good hand and respiratory hygiene (covering your mouth and nose when coughing and sneezing) and the complete cooking of meat and eggs. Also, close contact with anyone with signs of respiratory distress, such as coughing or sneezing, should be avoided.
