Coronavirus: Latest Updates

This media comes from the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention‘s Public Health Image Library (PHIL), with identification number #23312.

Hi everyone,

I am going to pin this post for the time being, since news is updating quite rapidly regarding the Coronavirus and it’s spreading across the United States as well as other parts of the world. I will also try to update this whenever I stumble across something interesting enough for me to want to add. So, just in case you’ve been sleeping under a rock lately, according to WHO – the World Health Organization – the Coronavirus, which seems to have originated in Wuhan, China back in December of 2019 has now quickly spread all across the globe, infecting over 155k of the world population with 5k and rising succumbing from it.

So, what is the Coronavirus exactly? The Coronavirus is a type of virus that has actually been around for a long time – but a newly identified type named COVID-19 is the one that currently has everyone on edge at the moment. It’s symptoms include a cough, shortness of breath and a fever. Mild cases can mimic the flu while the worst cases can cause lung and kidney failure, and even death. There currently is no definitive cure nor any vaccine, so it can be very dangerous if someone with a compromised immune system, especially the elderly – were to catch it.

  1. Even though this post was published a couple of weeks ago, it is amazing how things can escalate so quick. Hopefully things will improve somehow. We all have a role in this. I am pretty much working from home and staying in all the time besides my weekly grocery trips. Stay safe!
