3. INTRODUCTION
Coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) is defined as
illness caused by a novel coronavirus now called severe
acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2;
formerly called 2019-nCoV), which was first identified
amid an outbreak of respiratory illness cases in Wuhan
City, Hubei Province, China.
It was initially reported to the WHO on December 31,
2019. On January 30, 2020, the WHO declared the
COVID-19 outbreak a global health emergency. On
March 11, 2020, the WHO declared COVID-19 a
global pandemic, its first such designation since declaring
H1N1 influenza a pandemic in 2009.

4. TERMINOLOGIES
◻ VIRUSES:- an infective agent that typically consists of a
nucleic acid molecule in a protein coat, is too small to be
seen by light microscopy, and is able to multiply only
within the living cells of a host.
◻ EPIDEMIC:- a widespread occurrence of an infectious
disease in a community at a particular time.
◻ PANDEMIC:- Disease prevalent over a whole country or
the world.

5. EPIDEMIC DATE OF COVID-19
◻ A large number of studies so far are reports based on experiences
in China. At the beginning of the outbreak, COVID-19 cases were
mostly observed among elderly people .
◻ As the outbreak continued, the number of cases among people
aged 65 years and older increased further, but also some increase
among children (< 18 years) was observed.
◻ The number of male patients was higher initially, but no significant
gender difference was observed as case number increased. The
mean incubation period was 5.2 days.

6. PATHOGENIOUS OF COVID 19

7. PATHOGENIOUS OF COVID 19
◻ The basic reproduction
number of coronavirus
is 2 to 2.5..that means
one infected person
can infect other 2
healthy indiviuals when
other control measures
are not taken

8. STATE WISE CORONA VIRUS
◻ According to the WHO
situation report (March 27,
2020) update on
COVID-19, there have been
more than 500,000
reported cases and 23000
deaths worldwide and this
number continues to increase.

9. SYMPTOMS
Less common symptoms
❑ Aches and pains.
❑ GI symptoms like
nausea, vomiting,
diarrhoea.
❑ Conjunctivitis.
❑ A rash on skin, or
discoloration of fingers
or toes.
❑ Headache
Most common Symptoms may appear
❑ 2-14 days after exposure to the virus.
People with these symptoms may have
COVID-19:
❑ Cough
❑ Shortness of breath or difficulty breathing
❑ Fever
❑ Chills
❑ Muscle pain
❑ Sore throat
❑ Loss of taste or smell

10. MODE OF TRANSMISSION

11. PEOPLE AT HIGH RISK
◻ COVID-19 is a new disease and there is limited information regarding
risk factors for severe disease. Based on currently available
information and clinical expertise, older adults and people of any
age who have serious underlying medical conditions might be at
higher risk for severe illness from COVID-19.
◻ Based on what we know now, those at high-risk for severe illness from
COVID-19 are:
◻ People 65 years and older
◻ People who live in a nursing home or long-term care facility
◻ People of all ages with underlying medical conditions, particularly if
not well controlled, including
◻ disease or moderate to severe asthma
◻ People who have serious heart conditions

12. GENERAL PREVENTION
◻ STAY
home
◻ KEEP
a safe distance
◻ WASH
hands often
◻ COVER
your cough
◻ SICK?
Call the helpline

13. WHAT TO DO IF YOU ARE SICK
◻ If you have a fever, cough or other symptoms, you might have COVID-19.
Most people have mild illness and are able to recover at home. If you think
you may have been exposed to COVID-19, contact your healthcare provider.
◻ Keep track of your symptoms.
◻ If you have an emergency warning sign (including ), get emergency medical
care immediately.

14. TREATMENTS

15. STANDARD PRECAUTIONS
◻ These practices are designed to both protect DHCP and
prevent DHCP from spreading infections among patients.
◻ Standard Precautions include —
1. Hand hygiene. 2. Use of personal protective equipment
(e.g., gloves, masks, eyewear). 3. Respiratory hygiene /
cough etiquette. 4. Sharps safety (engineering and work
practice controls). 5. Safe injection practices (i.e., aseptic
technique for parenteral medications). 6. Sterile instruments
and devices. 7. Clean and disinfected environmental surfaces

16. SELF HYGIENE
Wash hands with soap and water for
at least 20 seconds after contact

17. PERSONAL PROTECTIVE EQUIPMNENT
Personal protective
equipment (PPE) refers
to wearable equipment
that is designed to
protect DHCP from
exposure to or contact
with infectious agents.
