When the world learned about the new coronavirus, no one expected it to be capable of profoundly shaking the economy of all countries, but there was already an idea of its danger.
But why has an effective cure for the Coronavirus not yet been found? Since its appearance was in December?
It is not known yet, as it is not a virus transformed from another that exists, but a new virus of really strange origin from China, which consequently is not the first time that a potentially dangerous virus has emerged from there.
Today we have gathered some information that will certainly be revealing for you to pass on to those people who are not aware of the main symptoms that the coronavirus causes in our bodies.
What to do if I have these Coronavirus symptoms?
Firstly, you need to look at your immune system, even before you experience any symptoms. And for this there are several concrete actions that you can start doing, such as taking vitamin D, Omega 3, tea, drinking plenty of water. Physical exercises at home, etc…
The symptoms are very varied, but the drawing above represents the main ones that occur with everyone who catches the coronavirus.
Every person with a fever and respiratory symptoms such as runny nose, cough and shortness of breath qualifies as a potential suspected case of Covid-19, the disease caused by this infectious agent. Before that, the definition only applied to people who traveled or had contact with infected patients.
Therefore, should anyone with a similar condition go to the hospital?
The advice from health professionals is that: in case of suspicion, stay at home for 14 days and only seek hospital if the problem worsens.
The WHO also recommends home isolation for 14 days from other residents of the residence.
But you must be cautious, and during this period, you need to pay attention to the evolution of the condition. “Mild symptoms, such as a cough and runny nose that last for several days, are not worrying.
However, until further notice, if there is a persistent high fever and if the cough is accompanied by respiratory discomfort, seek immediate medical attention”, recommends Marcelo Mimica, infectious disease specialist at Fleury Medicina e Saúde.
The message goes double for risk groups, that is, people over 60, smokers, those with respiratory problems, and so on.
