COVID 19 – 3D Lifestyle Vs A Global Threat

The COVID 19 is an epidemic, which has caused panic throughout the world and it has brought the marketplace to its knees in a matter of a couple of weeks. According to WHO’s report, the number of confirmed cases tested positive of COVID 19 are 737,577, confirmed number of deaths from this virus are 35,000 and the total countries or territories which have been affected by this pandemic are 169; and increasing. This virus started from the Chinese city Wuhan, and it has spread across the globe in no time. Before hitting Pakistan, it has brought massacre to developed countries like Italy, China, USA, the UK and many more.

This means that even countries with high-end healthcare protocols and systems could not grasp this virus from the roots and discard it from their daily lives. In the light of the situation, Pakistan’s healthcare protocols are much weaker – which means that businesses such as 3D Lifestyle and people themselves have to step up to defeat this pandemic; and drive it out of our environment.

According to the research which has been carried out yet, it is seen that older adults in the age range of 45+, or those living with chronic health problems, for example, diabetes, heart disease or a lug disease are at a higher risk of being vulnerable to COVID 19. Also people who are in close contact with or have previously been in contact with a COVID 19 patient are more vulnerable, such as home workers and healthcare workers. 

3. What Are The Typical Symptoms Of COVID 19?

 The most common symptoms of COVID 19 are cough, fever, runny nose, difficulty in breathing and tiredness. In more severe cases, the symptoms can be pneumonia or an infection in the lungs. The symptoms start to appear in 2 to 14 days; depending on the immune strength of a person.

4. What Are The Globally Agreed Upon Precautionary Measures?
