COVID-19, also known as coronavirus disease 2019, is a viral illness caused by the severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2).
Some people infected with COVID-19 may be asymptomatic (showing no symptoms at all) but can still spread the virus to others. The most common symptoms include:
The most common method for diagnosing COVID-19 is via a polymerase chain reaction (PCR) test, that detects the genetic material of the virus in a patient’s respiratory sample. The PCR test is highly accurate.
There is currently no specific antiviral treatment for COVID-19. Most people infected with COVID-19 will experience mild to moderate symptoms and will recover without special treatment. However, severe cases may require hospitalization, with supportive care such as oxygen therapy, intravenous fluids, and medications to manage symptoms.
Many patients experience long term side effects of COVID-19. At CMC Dubai our Post-Covid Care Package is designed to help patients be properly diagnosed and receive an optimal customised treatment plan for their side-effects.
The medications for COVID-19 are not available over-the-counter at pharmacies. They are typically administered in a hospital or clinical setting under the supervision of a healthcare provider.
There are several medications that have been authorized or approved by regulatory agencies for the treatment of COVID-19, including remdesivir, dexamethasone, and monoclonal antibodies.
The best way to prevent getting COVID-19 is to get vaccinated, practice good hygiene (such as washing your hands frequently), wear a mask in public spaces, and avoid close contact with individuals who are sick.
If you think you have COVID-19, it is important to seek medical advice and get tested as soon as possible. You should also self-isolate to avoid spreading the virus to others.
Yes, individuals who have recovered from COVID-19 can still receive the COVID-19 vaccine. In fact, getting vaccinated after recovery is recommended to help prevent future infections and protect against new variants.
