It all started in Wuhan, China at the end of 2019, a mysterious virus that targets people with respiratory tract, a deadly virus, but its danger is that it is invisible and spreads at a record speed.
As of this writing, 1431 cases was confirmed in morocco, according to data from the Ministry of Health, and globally, it has infected 1 million, 611 thousand and 80. according Johns Hopkins University of medcine.
The World Health Organization announced on March 11 that the virus is a global pandemic, Covid 19, is different from its predecessors such as the SARS virus (2003), swine flu, H1N1 (2009), the virus of mers, (2012), and the Ebola virus that appeared in Africa in 2014.
All of these viruses kill humans, but the lethality was very high compared to Coved 19, and it is superior to them in terms of spreading as it travels through sneezing, touching surfaces, and the face.
