Researchers have found another symptom of the Corona virus. There has been multiple reports of young, healthy adults suffering from blood clots and strokes due to Corona virus. At first, doctors thought the virus only attacked the respiratory system but this doesn’t seem to be the case. Due to the nature of the virus, no vaccine has been created yet. As research continues on the virus, it is crucial that we know every possible symptom in order to prepare for it.
We’re experiencing an viral outbreak called COVID-19. The virus originated in the Wuhan providence of China. It is believed the outbreak started from the consumption of bush meat. Bush meat are animals that are not normally eaten by humans such as dogs, bats, monkeys, birds and other exotic wildlife.
Even though the US is currently the center of this pandemic, over taking both Italy and China in the numbers of positive tests, it is important to continue taking proper precautions. Here are some ways you and your family can stay safe during this pandemic:
Earlier this week Rutgers president, Robert L. Barchi, sent out the email stating that face-to-face classes has been canceled until March 12th and he also suspended classes for the rest of the week. This was the proper measure to take since there has been already confirmed cases of the corona virus in New Jersey. Students have been advised to stay indoors and continue to disinfect in order to prevent anymore outbreaks. Universities across the US have been shutting down as well. I think there’s a bigger chance of an outbreak at a university since we’re all cooped up together on campus which makes getting infected a lot easier.
