Abstract
In December 2019, an outbreak of pneumonia of unknown origin was reported in Wuhan, Hubei Province, China. The disease is called coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19). When an infected person sneezes or coughs, sending tiny droplets into the air, people can catch coronavirus. People also can get infected if they touch an infected droplet on a surface and then touch their own nose, mouth, or eyes. The transmission rate is relatively high and the virus can lead to pneumonia, respiratory failure, septic shock, and death.
