COVID-19
Updates as of 25 February 2020
What is COVID-19?
• Coronaviruses (CoV) are a large family of viruses that cause
illness ranging from the common cold to more severe
diseases such as Middle East Respiratory Syndrome (MERS-
CoV) and Severe Acute Respiratory Syndrome (SARS-CoV). A
novel coronavirus (nCoV) is a new strain that has not been
previously identified in humans.
• Coronaviruses are zoonotic, meaning they are transmitted
between animals and people.
• Common signs of infection include:
• Respiratory symptoms
• Fever
• Cough
• Shortness of breath and breathing difficulties
• In more severe cases, infection can cause pneumonia,
severe acute respiratory syndrome, renal failure and even
death.
• When a disease is new as COVID-19, there is usually no
vaccine until one is developed. It can even take a number of
years for a new vaccine to be developed.
Update on COVID-19 epidemic until 24th February 2020
• Globally: 79,424 confirmed cases, including 2,626 associated deaths
• China: 77,262 confirmed cases, 2,595 deaths
• Outside China: 2,162 confirmed cases, 17 deaths, from 33 countries
• Iran: 61 confirmed cases, 12 deaths
• Iraq: 1 case reported in Najaf – religious student travelling back from Iran
and 04 from same family in Kirkuk with the recent travel history
to Iran
Global Strategic objectives
• Limit human-to-human transmission including reducing secondary
infections among close contacts and health care workers
• Identify, isolate and care for patients early, including providing optimized
care for infected patients
• Address crucial unknowns regarding clinical severity, extent of transmission
and infection, treatment options, and accelerate the development of
diagnostics, therapeutics and vaccines
• Communicate critical risk and event information to all communities and
counter misinformation
• Minimize social and economic impact through multisectoral partnerships
• Identify and reduce transmission from the animal source
Iraq response to COVID-19
• Restriction of entry to non-Iraqi travelers (direct or indirect for a previous period of 14-days)
coming from China, Iran, South Korea, Thailand, Japan, Italy, and Singapore until further
notice.
• Iraqis coming from these countries are quarantined at their homes for 14 days (for those of
no clinical signs), and at designated hospitals in each governorate (for those with clinical
symptoms).
• Advise citizens to avoid gatherings (especially in closed sites) and travel (except in
emergency situations).
• Avoid conducting meetings, symposiums, and other events except for emergency
conditions.
• Adopt a fast track mechanism to procure medical supplies, test kits, PPEs, thermal
scanners, and other needed diagnostic and curative commodities through KIMADIA and
distribute it to all possible sites (Ports of Entry, Government buildings, etc.).
• Since a case has been identified in Najaf & 4 in Kirkuk, special measures are taken in the
holy governorate as follows:
– Inspection of all who were in contact with cases.
– Quarantine all those coming from Iran after 10 Feb 2020 and test those with clinical symptoms.
– Advise citizens not to travel between governorates (especially Najaf and Kirkuk) except for emergencies.

COVID-19 prevention activities supported by WHO in

• Laboratory reagents brought in and supplied on 9th

among the MoH, relevant ministries, and WHO.
• Situation updates are shared daily with partners
• A regional mission is planned to Iraq (1-5 March) to
look into COVID-19 Preparedness in the context of mass

Prevention methods
• Wash your hands frequently: Regularly and thoroughly
clean your hands with an alcohol-based hand rub or wash
them with soap and water.
• Why? Washing your hands with soap and water or using alcohol-
based hand rub remove and kills viruses that may be contaminated
from the surfaces on your hands.
• Maintain social distancing: Maintain at least 1 meter (3
feet) distance between yourself and anyone who is coughing
or sneezing.
• Why? When an infected person coughs or sneezes they spray small
respiratory droplets from their nose or mouth which may contain
virus. If you are too close, you can breathe in the droplets, or the
droplets may contaminate your mucous membranes on of nose,
mouth and eyes.
• Avoid touching eyes, nose and mouth
• Why? Hands touch many surfaces and can contaminated by the
viruses that are discharged from an infected person and staying for
a while on the surfaces. The contaminated, hands can transfer the
virus to your eyes, nose or mouth. From there, the virus can enter
your body and can make you sick.
Prevention methods – contd.
• Practice respiratory hygiene: Make sure you, and the
people around you, follow good respiratory hygiene. This
means covering your mouth and nose with your bent elbow
or tissue when you cough or sneeze. Then safely dispose of
the used tissue immediately and clean your whole upper
limb or wash the clothes at the earliest.
• Why? Droplets spread virus. By following good respiratory hygiene
you protect the people around you from viruses such as cold, flu
and COVID-19.
• Practice self quarantine and seek early medical care: Stay
home if you feel unwell. If you have a fever, cough and
difficulty breathing, seek medical attention as early as
possible. Follow the directions of your local health authority.
• Why? National and local authorities will have the most up to date
information on the situation in your area. Calling in advance will
allow your health care provider to quickly direct you to the right
health facility. This will also protect you and help prevent spread of
viruses and other infections.

  • 8. Prevention methods • Wash your hands frequently: Regularly and thoroughly clean your hands with an alcohol-based hand rub or wash them with soap and water. • Why? Washing your hands with soap and water or using alcohol- based hand rub remove and kills viruses that may be contaminated from the surfaces on your hands. • Maintain social distancing: Maintain at least 1 meter (3 feet) distance between yourself and anyone who is coughing or sneezing. • Why? When an infected person coughs or sneezes they spray small respiratory droplets from their nose or mouth which may contain virus. If you are too close, you can breathe in the droplets, or the droplets may contaminate your mucous membranes on of nose, mouth and eyes. • Avoid touching eyes, nose and mouth • Why? Hands touch many surfaces and can contaminated by the viruses that are discharged from an infected person and staying for a while on the surfaces. The contaminated, hands can transfer the virus to your eyes, nose or mouth. From there, the virus can enter your body and can make you sick.
  • 9. Prevention methods – contd. • Practice respiratory hygiene: Make sure you, and the people around you, follow good respiratory hygiene. This means covering your mouth and nose with your bent elbow or tissue when you cough or sneeze. Then safely dispose of the used tissue immediately and clean your whole upper limb or wash the clothes at the earliest. • Why? Droplets spread virus. By following good respiratory hygiene you protect the people around you from viruses such as cold, flu and COVID-19. • Practice self quarantine and seek early medical care: Stay home if you feel unwell. If you have a fever, cough and difficulty breathing, seek medical attention as early as possible. Follow the directions of your local health authority. • Why? National and local authorities will have the most up to date information on the situation in your area. Calling in advance will allow your health care provider to quickly direct you to the right health facility. This will also protect you and help prevent spread of viruses and other infections.
