COVID-19 is highly contagious, and you can catch it by simply inhaling. It

was clear early on that COVID-19 was easily spread through close contact, whether

that was person-to-person or by touching contaminated surfaces. The U.S. Centers

for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) has now acknowledged that airborne

transmission is possible under certain circumstances, meaning the virus can spread

through particles in the air and not just the larger droplets that can be spread short

distances.

There are still some questions we don’t have the answer to, like “How much

of the virus will make a healthy individual ill?” which once answered, will help make

disinfection efforts, transmission models, and diagnostic practices more accurate.

And of course, researchers are furiously working to find effective treatments and a

vaccine.

A. “This is a scary, tough time,” said Dr. Hough. “We owe it to the essential workers,

parents, the jobless, and most of all, those who have plunged prey to this disease to do

all that we can to be liable members of our societies. The public needs to buy time for our

medical society.”

B. Flu time is here. The virus still plaguing much of the world. It’s more vital than ever to

be health conscious. Countless scientists all over the world are striving to better

understand SARS-CoV-2. This virus that caused COVID-19, brought the most relevant

research findings together in one place is key to a harmonized effort.

C. It is also important to note that COVID-19 can infect anyone, though it’s worse for

some than others. The CDC has found that most symptomatic cases are mild, but severe

disease can be found in any age group. Children have proven susceptible to COVID-19.

We don’t know exactly how infectious they are, but children with positive cases appear to

have as much SARS-CoV-2 in their upper respiratory tract as adults.
