Coronavirus belongs to a family that includes viruses causing common cold to middle east respiratory syndrome (MERS), and severe acute respiratory syndrome (SARs), as per the World Health Organization (WHO). The novel coronavirus is a newly discovered strain and is also known as COVID-19 and has led to a rapid rate of respiratory infections and deaths globally. The disease primarily spreads through droplets of saliva or nasal discharge of an infected person, when such a person coughs or sneezes. The common symptoms of the disease are fever, cough, difficulty in breathing, fatigue, loss of smell, tenderness, and muscle pain, among others. The spread of the disease can be avoided through washing hands with soap and water at regular intervals, avoiding contact with those infected, and using a medical facemask. The following figure illustrates the crucial information regarding novel coronavirus spread, its symptoms, susceptibility, and the preventive measures against the disease.
