Key Factors To Take Into Account For The COVID-19
Everyone on the internet truly refuses to recognise that they have symptoms and does not get tested since people are always afraid when they hear about the coronavirus. Health professionals advise getting the test done if you are exhibiting symptoms, even if they are the symptoms of a common flu.
There are three stages of coronavirus infection, depending on its severity. In a mild infection, the patient experiences fever, accompanied by a mild cough and weakness. In a moderate case, the patient may suffer from pneumonia or other respiratory issues. In the third stage, the COVID-19 virus impacts the organs of the body in addition to pneumonia.
In addition, anyone over the age of 60 or a pregnant woman with high blood pressure, diabetes, obesity, cancer, or any other health conditions is more likely to contract COVID-19. These groups of people are more vulnerable to getting afflicted by the COVID-19; hence, if you exhibit any of the symptoms or are not feeling well, it is crucial that you be vaccinated and isolate yourself.
Who Is Required To Pass The COVID Test?
It's critical to get tested as soon as symptoms of COVID-19 or the flu start to manifest. Even if you haven't come into contact with an infected person, it is still a good idea to get tested. It is best to get tested as soon as symptoms start to show because getting the test done in advance does not produce accurate findings.
Experts assert that anyone exhibiting symptoms of even the common flu should get tested and isolate themselves for some days as it can help prevent the further spread of the deadly virus, which has so far afflicted over 4.47 crore people in the country while over 5.31 lakh people have died due to COVID-19.
