About Covid-19
What is COVID-19?
COVID-19 is a contagious respiratory illness caused by a novel coronavirus that spreads through droplets. Symptoms range from mild to severe and can lead to complications such as pneumonia and death.
Though effective vaccines have been developed, wearing masks, social distancing, hand washing, and avoiding large groups are still necessary precautions.
Covid-19 Symptoms
What are the symptoms of COVID-19?

Tiredness
Covid-19 symptoms include fatigue, fever, cough and body aches that can last weeks. Get tested if you have these symptoms, and if positive, rest and stay hydrated for a faster recovery.

Dry Cough
To diagnose and manage Covid-19 symptoms while minimizing spread, seek medical help if you have a dry cough, fatigue, difficulty breathing, sore throat, or fever, and have been near a positive case or high-risk area.

Shortness of Breath
Shortness of breath is a Covid-19 symptom. Seek medical help immediately for severe respiratory distress, chest pain, bluish lips, confusion or fatigue. Treatment may include oxygen, ventilation or anti-inflammatory drugs.

Covid-19 Contagion
How does COVID-19 Spread?
COVID-19 spreads easily through respiratory droplets when an infected person talks, coughs, or sneezes. It also spreads through touching infected surfaces then touching the mouth, nose, or eyes. Infected people can transmit the virus before showing symptoms, making it hard to contain. Crowded areas with poor ventilation are high-risk for transmission. Wearing masks, social distancing, washing hands frequently, and avoiding large gatherings are crucial in reducing the spread of COVID-19.
