The New Coronavirus attack sneaked up on the world. On 31st December 2019 when the world was busy celebrating the coming new year, a cluster of Pneumonia broke out in Wuhan China.
But the first case was apparently detected on 17th November 2019.The whistle blower doctor was one of the first to succumb to the disease.The Chinese authorities had left no stones unturned to stop information. In fact over the next several months they actively spread misinformation .
They even kept WHO in the dark.When the world wanted to stop people from traveling to China ,they talked about racism.The damage was already done though and Italy payed the price of the famous “hug me ” campaign.
700 people in 2002 and 2003 had died of SARS in China. The new Coronavirus is suspected to be of the same family.

According to WHO and CDC reports this is what you should know
11/03/2020: WHO declares the COVID19 as a pandemic.Interesting that initially WHO was saying the exact opposite.When it comes to China everyone seems to be fighting a shadow war.
Chinese officials have advised against traveling to Wuhan. But with the Chinese New Year coming many will be traveling, to visit their families and that could be a problem in containing the outbreak. Close space contact like during train or air travel can cause the rapid spread of the virus.
Symptoms of New Coronavirus infection as mentioned by WHO
- Asymptomatic to Mild to moderate upper respiratory tract illness, like a common cold.
- Fever -98%
- Cough-76%
- Myalgia /fatigue -44%
- Hyposmia/anosmia unable to smell
- Runny nose
- Sore throat
- Headache
- Shortness of breath and breathing difficulties-55%
- Severe cases: pneumonia, acute respiratory syndrome, kidney failure, and even death.
- Other symptoms updated by CDC (updated on this blog June 2020)-skin rash, nausea, vomiting, diarrhea.
This study reviewing scientific studies in 148 countries found persistent cough and fever is the classic symptom of COVID 19. Other major symptoms include fatigue, reduced smell sensation, breathing difficulty.
Of the 24,410 cases, the study found:
78 percent had a fever. vary across countries. ( 72 percent of fever reported by patients in Singapore and 32 percent in Korea.
57 percent had a cough. Varying across countries,76 percent of patients reporting a cough in the Netherlands while only 18 percent in Korea.
31 percent fatigue.
25 percent -lost the ability to smell.
23 percent – difficulty breathing.
Mortality rate of 2019-nCoV infection is around 3%
Transmission of the Novel Corona Virus 2019-NCoV
TRANSMISSION RATE (Ro) :2 – 3
(2 – 3 newly infected from 1 case)
It is highly infectious and transmittable during the incubation phase ranging from 2 days to two weeks.
Animals and people transmit coronaviruses.
Itโs a zoonosis, so most likely initial point of contact was an animal. But now the new Coronavirus from China can spread by human contact has been confirmed by reports. In one instance, 14 doctors and nurses operating on a patient unknown to be infected were all affected(source). This makes the possibility of the virus spreading easily likely.
It is suspected to spread through the aerosols from respiratory tract But the exact modes of transmission are still under research.
The Wuhan strain is suspected to have links to a city market selling seafood and live animals including wild species. SARS has a similar history of relation to the transmission through a city market selling, Civet cat a delicacy in some parts of China.
Its spread through fomites, human to human and aersol transmission is confirmed.
A South China post reports about evidence regarding aerosol transmission of the virus.These droplets are less than 5micrometers in diameter and could be cause for concern.
Study was done by researchers from University of Nebraska Medical Centre, National Strategic Research Institute at the University of Nebraska.They collected air samples from 11 rooms where 13 confirmed cases of #COVID19 were being treated.
A new study has found evidence that hints at the possibility of airborne transmission of #covid19, reports the South China Morning Post. In spite of its findings, however, the researchers have insisted that this โdoes not confirm the airborne spreadโ of the deadly virus just yet.
— The Weather Channel India (@weatherindia) April 2, 2020
Viral genetic material was found both inside (63.2%) and outside the rooms (66.7%).The highest concentration was at 2 meters from the patient inhaling oxygen through nasal tube.
What is the Diagnostic test for 2019-nCoV
Real-time reverse transcription-polymerase chain reaction (rRT-PCR)assay is the test being done by CDC in the USA.
Prevention
Coronavirus treatment
No specific antiviral treatment is recommended yet for 2019-nCoV infection.
Supportive treatment for cold, steam inhalation and gargling could help. Application of PVP-I with 0.23โ1% concentration, for 1โ2 min reduced SARS-CoV virus infectivity from 1.17โรโ106 TCID50/ml to below detectable levels in a study by Kariwa et al. Studies for shorter contact times are not available.
Fluids, rest and sleep are very important for preventing complications
Consult your doctor for the best advice regarding your symptoms. Definitely inform him in advance about your travel history.
Symptomatic supportive treatment for respiratory and other vital organ functions are often the mainstays of treatment.
In India,Rajasthan ,treatment with a combination of a certain antimalarial and anti- retroviral drugs have good result.
Vaccine trial has started in USA
Washington: A clinical trial has started with a vaccine designed to protect against the new coronavirus on 17/03/2020 .
The National Institutes of Health is funding the trial.It is taking place at the Kaiser Permanente Washington Health Research Institute in Seattle.
It will take a year to 18 months to fully validate any potential vaccine. Says US Govt Official

Corona virus vaccine and treatment New Update May 2020: whatโs happening?
The New Coronavirus COVID 19, CCP virus Wuhan virus, SARS COVID 2 -the names of this virus are as many as the number of entities making a vaccine for it.
Probably more of the latter. The good news so far is
Oxford University started the vaccine human trial in April 2020 and our very own Serum institute Pune is ready to roll production of this vaccine by September.
Covaxine by Bharat Biotech also has potential to be India’s first COVID-19 vaccine by Hyderabad’s Bharat Biotech.It has been given DCGI clearance for human trials.(Updated 30/06/2020).This is India’s first indigenous anti COVID19 vaccine.This was developed in collaboration with ICMR and NIV.The official release says the vaccine has shown an effective immunological response and safety.
Many other COVID vaccines are being developed by various other Indian company and Internationally in collaborations across the globe.
May the best vaccine win!
The article in Lancet about the Hydroxychloroquine controversy has several study bias. Most importantly its an observational study and secondly it’s funded by pharma giants producing more expensive treatment protocols for COVID 19 treatment. Under all circumstances, both treatment and vaccine trials should strictly follow a transparent disclosure policy regarding funding and bias if any.
The Lancet paper has also made WHO stop the HCQ study .The paper was funded by all other trial drugs which is a direct conflict of interest in this case.It was not published by people who use the medicine,that looks like a bias.The Paper was then retracted.
This pandemic has made biological threats a present day problem.
The problem with viral vaccines:
The virus keeps mutating and you need a yearly shot like the Influenza /Flu vaccine. The mutating capacity of this virus is an unknown quantity
The pandemic is still very much alive.It’s wait and watch time guys.
How can you prevent infection and overwhelm by COVID19?
How to Prevent Corona Virus infection and Overwhelm?
- Avoidingย close contact with people suffering from acute respiratory infections;
- Practice frequent hand-washing and cough etiquette.Hand washing the WHO way is useful for at least 20 seconds. Use soap and water for handwashing and an alcohol-based sanitizer if soap not available.
Soap and water are best.
- Avoid touching face, eyes, nose and mouth with unwashed hands.
- Coverup with tissues when you cough or sneeze and dispose it properly afterward.
- Frequently used objects and surfaces need to be disinfected regularly.
- Wearing an appropriate surgical mask is recommended, and protective gear as available should be used in the presence of known cases of 2019-nCoV.But panicked overstocking will not help anyone.
It’s better the case who is affected offered the mask first, to avoid the spread of infection.Wearing a mask may protect against inadvertent touching of face eyes, nose and other mucosal surfaces which causes virus transmission,
- Strictly avoid close contact with alive or dead farm or wild animals. Avoid visiting slaughterhouses. Avoid touching surfaces in slaughterhouses and raw flesh, blood of animals.
- Older travelers and those with underlying health issues may be at higher risk
- If you traveled to Wuhan or any of the affected regions or have been in contact with a sick person, and feel sick with fever, cough, or difficulty breathing, you should visit your nearest healthcare facility.ย Informing about your recent travel in advance can be useful.ย Use a mask to prevent transmission at all times.
- Donโt travel while sick. Avoid going to the office or sending children to school if they are having a fever.
- Maintain social distancing
Atleast 3- 6 feet distance to be maintained to avoid contracting infection.
- Spitting in public is a healthcare hazard
Don’t spit in public .Avoid paan ,tobacco,gutkha chewing habits as they make you hypersalivate and spit.
- Self Quarantine strictly if in home quarantine.
Read my post and follow the tips.But in case you don’t have access to a seperate room,its best you stay in a Government quaramtine facility.
- Don’t forget routine immunizations for kids
Even during COVID19 pandemic you need to continue healthy habits,preventive healthcare practices
- Practice wellness for improving mental health
I am a passionate balcony gardener and during the COVID19 pandemic my gardening activities helped me lower stress and focus on now .
- Do’s for elderly in lockdown
Eat healthy and keep moving.Do housework regularly for maintaining mobility according to age.Exercise ,meditate,garden,sing .take medicines as prescribed regularly.Pray and maintain inner strength and positivity.
Quarantine,Self isolation and social distancing are all different ways to prevent inadvertent contracting of infection.
Responsible behaviour is needed to manage this disease .
What we know about Coronavirus attacks
Coronaviruses are a family of respiratory RNA viruses. They have a crown-like appearance and can infect a wide variety of animals. They are responsible for 10-35 % of common cold depending on the season like late fall, winter, early spring. They cause diseases ranging from the common cold to the Middle-East Respiratory Syndrome and the Severe Acute Respiratory Syndrome (SARS).
The novel coronavirus (2019-nCoV) is in the same family of infections as severe acute respiratory syndrome (SARS) and the Middle East respiratory syndrome (MERS). It shares an 80% genetic similarity with SARS CoV. Its most closely related to a bat virus and therein lies the catch!
Middle East Respiratory Syndrome, or the MERS virus, reported in 2012 in the middle East. It causes severe respiratory symptoms. According to CDC four out of every 10 patients infected with MERS died. Trials for a MERS vaccine are also underway. Unlike SARS, isolated cases of MERS are often heard.
Severe Acute Respiratory Syndrome, commonly known as SARS. First identified in the Guangdong in south China. According to WHO, it causes respiratory problems, diarrhea, fatigue, shortness of breath, respiratory distress and kidney failure. Depending on the patient’s age, the death rate with SARS ranged from 0-50% of the cases, with older people being the most vulnerable.

Allergic Rhinitis and COVID 19 difference.
Allergic Rhinitis and Allergic Pharyngitis will have a predominant complaint of itching of nose, throat, sneezing but no fever. It is not contagious. They will have a previous history of allergy of the same or different type. They will usually have a family history of allergy.
COVID19 will usually have fever.A persistent cough and fever are the most common symptoms Other major symptoms are fatigue, losing the ability to smell and difficulty breathing.
But there are also reports of afebrile and asymptomatic cases of COVID19.
About Rapid Antigen Test
The Corona virus has several protein molecule on its surface as antigens.When a nasopharyngeal swabs is applied on a test kit (it’s a paper strip with antibody layer ,enclosed in a plastic),there is a visual representation of the antigen and antibody complex, if antigen is present in certain amount.
Takes around 30 minutes for the reagent
The antigens are expressed when the virus is multiplying. Thus best for acute infection
Pros of the test:
Cheaper.Doesn’t need sophisticated set up .
When higher viral load if the Rapid test says positive ,it means positive.
Cons:
According to most guidelines it will be used in containment zones or hotspots and hospital settings only.
Reliability depends on kit quality,handling and temperature at storage and use .
Those who test positive are considered positive
Those who test negative needs a sequential RT PCR to rule out COVID 19.
ICMR Website gives a comprehensive list of all rapid diagnostic kits, RTPCR and Antibody testing.
