Public Health Significance of Covida-19

Koronavirus je virus koji je uzrokovao trenutnu pandemiju koja postoji na cijelom svijetu. Prethodno spomenuti virus uključuje sedam različitih vrsta, a jedan od njih je COVID-19 kojeg su znanstvenici prvi put identificirali 1965. COVID-19 je ipak veliku popularnost stekao 2020. godinu kada je u Wuhanu počela epidemija koja se ubrzo pretvortila u pandemiju. Danas se pandemija COVID-a 19 i dalje širi svijetom te broji više od 100 milijuna potvrđenih slučajeva i 2,2 milijuna smrtnih slučajeva u gotovo 200 zemalja. Nacionalni stožeri zemalja iz tog razloga preporučuju različite mjere za sprječavanje širenja zaraze, a ključne mjere su fizička distanca, često pranje ruku, dezinfekcija površina koje se često dodiruju i slično. Tu je i cijepljenje koje je nužno kako bi se pandemiji uzrokovanoj COVIDom 19 stalo na kraj. Sama pandemija je ostavila utjecaj i na socijalni i na poslovni život ljudi. Kod ljudi je zabilježena veća anksioznost te depresija, dok su sama poslovanja prebačena na online način rada ili su pak prekinuta. Kako bi pandemija uzrokovana COVID-om 19 završila bitno je da svaki pojedinac uloži vlastiti napor i da samu pandemiju shvati kao ozbiljan problem koji stvara brojne posljedice.The coronavirus is the virus that caused the current pandemic that exists all over the world.
