Now we know more about Corona







It started just with cold, fever,cough and breathlessness.

Now we look for body ache, loss of smell and taste,headache, dizziness and fatigue.

Sometimes there is only weakness and no other symptoms.

It will become more challenging for the physician to suspect and diagnose Covid19

The virus is not confined to lungs. It has effects outside lungs


  • It blocks oxygen supply to many organs. 


  • It triggers a clot formation,which travels to heart, brain and kidneys.Many need a dialysis







  • Those who have recovered may need oxygen at home because their lungs are in bad shape. 


  • Some complain of dry cough,(due to scars in lungs)
  • Some complain of weakness and having no energy to go back to work.
  •  Physiotherapy is needed to improve lung capacity
