The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) is working hard to respond to and tackle the outbreak of respiratory illness, the new coronavirus that was first detected in China and later spread across the world. While the virus is known to be a coronavirus, the disease that results from the infection is known as COVID-19.
Due to the widespread infection, we are witnessing, COVID-19 has been declared as a pandemic indicating the global outbreak of the disease.
Illness caused by COVID-19 can range from mild to severe symptoms that can lead to death. The CDC says that symptoms can appear 2 days to 14 days after exposure, including:
• Cough
