The coronavirus is a very infective virus that, at first, seemed that it was only contagious between animals. Even though, it was discovered that can be dangerous for the humans too in December 2019 in the city of Wuhan, a capital of the big powerful country of China where live millions of people who were infected. Nowadays, China is recuperating normal life after two months of a more strict confinement than ours. China can’t be considerate a democracy. For this reason, its population is so well-behaved and the government can take the measures they want to. However, it was successful and, now, they are helping other countries.
In the beginning, it was thought for everybody that this new virus was like influenza but the time and doctors has denied this affirmation. The main differences between them are:
· The corona virus doesn’t’ have a vaccine or a specific treatment.
· The transmission of influenza is through air while coronavirus one is through people.
· The period of incubation of influenza is between two and three days instead of corona virus one that is between two and fifteen days and, sometimes, is asymptomatic. Even though, can be transmitted to other people
· The characteristic symptom of coronavirus is the difficulty of breathing but has influenza’s same symptoms too like fever, cough and general discomfort. Nevertheless, it doesn’t provoke sneezes.
The principal method to prevent this virus is cleaning our hands very well during twenty seconds. Others can be going outside with a mask and gloves only to throw the rubbish, going to the supermarket or walking the dog. Don’t be abuse with your groceries and walks, we have to stay calm and avoid collective panic . Even all the ages can suffer the virus, elderly people is more vulnerable than us so if we can help them buying them food or anything else, we must do it.
