INTRODUCTION
is a viral respiratory disease of zoonotic origin
caused by severe acute respiratory syndrome
coronavirus (SARS-CoV or SARS-CoV-1), the first
identified strain of the
SARS coronavirus species severe acute
respiratory syndrome–related
coronavirus (SARSr-CoV). The first known cases
occurred in November 2002, and the syndrome
caused the 2002–2004 SARS outbreak

Signs and symptoms
4
Flu-like
symptoms and
may include
fever, muscle
pain, lethargy,
cough, sore
throat, and
other nonspecific
symptoms

Transmission
The primary route of transmission for
SARS-CoV is contact of the mucous
membranes with respiratory
droplets or fomites. While diarrhoea is
common in people with SARS,
the fecal–oral route does not appear
to be a common mode of
transmission.

Diagnosis
A chest X-ray showing increased opacity in both lungs, indicative of
pneumonia, in a patient with SARS approved tests (ELISA, immunofluorescence or PCR)
but whose chest X-ray findings do not show SARS-CoV infection

Prevention
• There is no vaccine for SARS,
although immunologist Anthony Fauci mentioned that
the CDC developed one and placed it in the US national
stockpile. That vaccine, however, is a prototype and not field-
ready as of March 2020. Clinical isolation and quarantine remain
the most effective means to prevent the spread of SARS. Other
preventive measures include :Hand-washing with soap and
water, or use of alcohol-based hand sanitizer
• Disinfection of surfaces of fomites to remove viruses
• Avoiding contact with bodily fluids

Treatment
As SARS is a viral disease, antibiotics do not have direct effect but
may be used against bacterial secondary infection. Treatment of
SARS is mainly supportive with antipyretics, supplemental oxygen
and mechanical ventilation as needed. While ribavirin is commonly
used to treat SARS, there seems to have little to no effect on SARS-
CoV, and no impact on patient's outcomes. Tested drugs,
include ribavirin, ritonavir, type I interferon, that have thus far
shown no conclusive contribution to the disease's
course. Administration of corticosteroids, is recommended in
patients with severe disease and O2 saturation of <90%.

Vaccine
Vaccines can help immune system to create enough antibodies and also it
can help to decrease a risk of side effects like arm pain, fever, headache
etc. According to research papers published in 2005 and 2006, the
identification and development of novel vaccines and medicines to treat
SARS was a priority for governments and public health agencies around
the world In early 2004, an early clinical trial on volunteers was
planned. A major researcher's 2016 request, however, demonstrated that
no field-ready SARS vaccine had been completed because likely market-
driven priorities had ended funding.
