What is the CoronaVirus and its actual tolls? And what are the predictions?

1 Medically speaking, the CoronaVirus (officially named SARS-CoV-2) is not as “strong” as other viruses in terms of toxicity, namely the Ebola and SARS-CoV, which were exceptionally lethal and due to their high mortality rates, were less contagious (since they kills off the infected so quickly before the virus can spread). As for the CoronaVirus, roughly 85% of those who got the disease only shows mild symptoms, and only about 5% are in critical condition (requiring intensive care), mortality usually occurs in elderly people and those with underlying diseases (like diabetes or cardiovascular). Therefore, it is apparent that the biological danger it poses is not commensurate with the fear of the community.

2 Instead, the CoronaVirus owes its immeasurable impacts to high infectibility, which in turn is caused by its low mortality rates. But just imagine, our society will cease to operate if everyone is sick. Therefore, quarantine and seal off transportation is the best course of action at the moment.

3 It is the intersubjective fear of getting infective with this virus that effectively choked the world economy. The fear is society-based, when you see your friends, your family, the whole neighborhood starts stockpiling foods and essentials, you will definitely panic. And when the news is so eager to add to the confusion with titles that read “Is China hiding something?”, it will drive us crazy.

4 A lot of press predictions that stock exchanges will collapse, travel industries will collapse, companies, schools and offices will shut down ... and move to online activities are completely plausible, and we do not really know how long this will last until the vaccine is found, or there is a cure for CoronaVirus.

5 This Covid-19 pandemic is a very special case in the history of world epidemiology, because it takes a toll on both human lives and the economy. This is a global affair, so everyone may be sad because we’re having a "dark" time with everything stagnating, but the most important thing is to "overcome the epidemic" and "recover" after that.

6 Each of us should continuously strengthen our resistance, distinguishing common colds and suspected CoronaVirus infection so that we can fight them immediately or as quickly as possible.

 Predictions are, in the next few months, as Europe and some countries warm up, CoronaVirus resistance will be better, because the virus does not tolerate heat (a lot of evidence shows that the ideal temperature for CoronaVirus is 8.72. degrees C), and if the average increases, the contagion is also lowered (although this may not stop the epidemic but makes the situation much easier to control).

 The good part is that our country - Vietnam, has hot / dry climate in many regions, so we hope that the control will be better.
