Doctor's answer (1)
Dr. Jiang Weimin
A severe acute respiratory syndrome caused by the novel coronavirus is considered an international pandemic, characterized by high infectivity and mortality. The virus may be associated with Mycoplasma pneumonia, thereby increasing the burden on healthcare systems and governments. COVID-19 primarily spreads through respiratory droplets, transmitted to others via actions such as coughing and sneezing, or through contact with contaminated surfaces. Main symptoms include fever, cough, fatigue, and difficulty breathing; severe cases may develop pneumonia and other complications. Therefore, individuals should adopt effective preventive measures, such as frequent handwashing, wearing masks in public, and maintaining social distancing, to avoid infection with COVID-19, Mycoplasma pneumonia, and influenza. Additionally, people should avoid crowded places, seek medical attention promptly when necessary, and follow medical advice to improve recovery rates.
