It is worth mentioning that, the World Health Organization (WHO) declared coronavirus a global pandemic as the new virus has rapidly spread to more than 121,000 people from Asia to the Middle East, Europe, and the United States.

More cases of the virus, which causes respiratory disease Covid-19, continue to emerge. There are 195 countries across the world, now, nearly every one of them has reported at least one case of the novel coronavirus.

In total, there are now over 183,179 confirmed cases and over 7,163 related deaths. However, in recent weeks, China has seen fewer and fewer new cases per day, while the count has risen in places like South Korea, Italy, Iran, Germany, France, USA, Spain, Switzerland, and the UK.

Italy recorded 368 more deaths from the coronavirus outbreak on Sunday, its biggest one day rise, amid growing concern about the ability of its strained health system to cope with the relentless increase in new cases.

Transmission of viruses between humans happens when someone comes into contact with an infected person’s secretions, such as droplets in a cough. They can also be transmitted by coming into contact with something an infected person has touched and then touching your mouth, nose or eyes.

It is known that older people appear to be more vulnerable to the effects of the emerging virus.
