The Spread of the Corona Virus Evolves

Recently the world was shocked by the presence of the fastest spreading disease caused by a virus called the corona virus. This disease can live in inanimate objects for a very long time. And can be transmitted through the respiratory tract, a terrible disease!

The rapid spread of the virus has overwhelmed the country where I live, the people infected with this virus are increasing rapidly every day. That's why I'm sharing a science information article, which discusses the corona virus. Can this virus still evolve or is there a new type of virus? Reported from the journal JAMA on Thursday 27 February. Four medical professionals who specialize in researching the COVID-19 disease, the name of the disease caused by the corona virus.

Patients Recover After Recovering From COFID -19

Patients treated at the Zhongman Medical Hospital of Wuhan University in China. From the results of these studies. the patients were given oseltamivir, better known as the antiviral drug tamiflu. The data obtained, it turns out that all patients were cured, only one patient was hospitalized. The patients were declared cured after two days of being tested by medical experts and were negative for COFID-19.

After that, the medical experts ordered the recovered patients to immediately self-quarantine for 5 to 14 days. After being tested again within 5 days and 13 days, it turned out that the patients came back positive for Covid-19. This is a surprising finding, it turns out that patients who recovered from cofid-19 still carried the corona virus.

Data finding that patients who recovered can recover again came from Japan. A person who recovered from Covid-19 relapsed for the second time. In the opinion of the researchers, the case of the person may have caught the new virus from another person or the body's antibody system was unable to fight the virus completely. When the virus divides again in the lungs the symptoms occur again.

Immunity in the Face of Corona Virus.

The body has an immune system that will respond and provide protection from the virus, but the question is how long the body's immune system lasts. For example, the immune system protects the body from the corona virus, which causes the common cold within a year or two. It is possible that the new coronavirus mutated moving through a population. The virus becomes a version that the immune system cannot recognize.

How to deal with the Evolution of the Corona Virus?

This is a challenge for medical experts, in future research medical experts will not only make an antiviral vaccine against the corona virus. But also must be able to deal with the new version of the virus if that happens. It is very important that medical experts carry out long-term monitoring of recovered patients for the corona virus.
