Abstract

COVID-19 is a major disaster that has occurred in the year 2020. Most natural disasters are more common among developed countries, but Coronavirus affects almost all countries. Evidence states that this originated in Wuhan, China. It is a respiratory infection that has its rate of spread higher than all other diseases in this world. The symptoms of this disease are fever, cough, sore throat, difficulty in breathing, and many other respiratory problems. All these make it difficult for a person affected with Coronavirus to survive. To date, no effective vaccine has been found to combat this lethal virus, or even medicine has been discovered to cure this disease. Hydroxychloroquine is just a drug for temporary use and it doesn’t cure the disease. Preventive measures have to be followed to reduce its spread. Quarantine is one among them, that is keeping yourself away from others and staying home, social distancing and washing your hands is very important. The lockdown initiated by the government has to be strictly followed to reduce the rate of spread. All these measures have to be taken to prevent the reappearance of this deadly disease. It's a tragedy that has shaken the entire world. Considerations have to be given to cardiovascular insurance during treatment for COVID-19. A favorable line can be used in severe cases when indicated, but its efficacy needs further evaluation.
