Abstract

In recent years, various emerging diseases of pathogens such as Ebola virus, Zika virus, Nipah virus, and coronavirus have arisen in various geographic zones. The public is threatened with the dissemination of COVID-19 by a new global health epidemic. Data on the clinical characteristics of the patients involved have been expected since December 2019, when the coronavirus disease in 2019 (COVID-19) occurred in Wuhan City and quickly spread throughout China. Data from several research reports, WHO recommendations and other papers were extracted in this study. Readers should be aware that new health features, diagnostic, therapeutic plans and COVID-19 results are revised about every hour. In order to avoid the future spread of the infection to other patients and health care personnel, it is important to classify potential cases as quickly as possible and to separate suspicious persons from the reported COVID-19 cases.
