infectious disease caused by a newly
discovered coronavirus.
Most people who fall sick with COVID-19
will experience mild to moderate symptoms
and recover without special treatment.

3. WHERE DID COVID-19
ORIGINATE?
All the published genetic sequences of SARS-CoV-2
isolated from human cases are very similar, suggesting
that the start of the outbreak resulted from a single
point introduction in the human population around the
time that the virus was first reported in humans in
Wuhan, China. The analyses of the published genetic
sequences further suggest that the spillover from an
animal source
to humans happened during the last quarter of 2019.

4. WHERE IT FIRST HAPPENED?
Wuhan City, China

5. WHEN IT FIRST HAPPEN?
The first human cases of COVID-19, the

officials in Wuhan City, China, in
December 2019.

6. HOW DO YOU KNOW WHEN YOU’RE
AFFECTED?
Most individuals whenever with the Covid-19 virus will
develop mild to moderate resperatory failure and
recover without needing special care, Aged individuals
and those with ongoing medical conditions such as
cardiovascular disease, asthma, chronic respiratory
disease and cancer are most likely to expirience
severe illnesses.

7. HOW DOES THE TRANSMISSION OF
VIRUS OCCUR?
The COVID-19 virus spreads mainly
by droplets of saliva or discharge
from the nose while an infected
person coughs or sneezes.

8. How Can We Avoid Or Prevent
Having This Virus?
The only way to deter and delay dissemination is
to be well educated about the Covid-19 virus, the
illness it produces and how it spreads. Secure
yourself and others from contamination by
washing your hands or using alcohol free rubbing
regulary and without touching your skin.
Wearing facial masks and face shields.

9. It is not clear yet how long the coronavirus can live on
surfaces, but it seems to behave like other coronaviruses.
Virus may persist on surfaces for a few hours or up to
several days, depending on conditions and the type of
surface.
It is likely that it can be killed with a simple disinfectant
on the EPA registered list below.

outside of the body?
