Ama-Coronavirus awumndeni omkhulu wamagciwane aziwayo ukuthi abangela izifo ezihlukahlukene ezihlanganisa umkhuhlane ovamile kanye nezifo ezibucayi kakhulu ezifana ne-Middle East Respiratory Syndrome (MERS) kanye ne-Severe Acute Respiratory Syndrome (SARS).
I-coronavirus entsha (I-COVID-19) yatholwa ngo-2019 e-Wuhan, e-China. Lena kwakuyi-coronavirus entsha eyayingakaze ibonwe ngaphambilini kubantu.
Lesi sifundo sikunikeza isingeniso esivamile ngokuqondene ne-COVID-19 kanye namagciwane okuphefumula asafufusa futhi sihloselwe izisebenzi zempilo yomphakathi, abaphathi bezehlakalo kanye nabasebenzi abasebenzela Izizwe Ezihlangene, izinhlangano zamazwe omhlaba nama-NGO.
Njengoba igama elisemthethweni lesifo lasungulwa ngemva kokwakhiwa kwezinto zokufundisa, noma nini lapho kukhulunywa nge-nCoV sisuke sibhekisele ku-COVID-19, isifo esithathelanayo esibangelwa i-coronavirus esanda kutholwa.
Sicela uqaphele ukuthi okuqukethwe kwalesi sifundo okwamanje kuyabuyekezwa ukuze kubonise isiqondiso sakamuva. Ungathola ulwazi olubuyekeziwe ngezihloko ezithile ezihlobene ne-COVID-19 ezifundweni ezilandelayo:
Umgomo: isiteshi sokugomela i-COVID-19
Izinyathelo ze-IPC: IPC ye-COVID-19
Ukuhlolwa kokuxilonga okusheshayo kwe-Antigen: 1) SARS-CoV-2 antigen yokuhlola okusheshayo kokuhlolwa kwe-antigen; 2) Ukucatshangelwa okubalulekile kokusetshenziswa kwe-SARS-CoV-2 antigen RDT
