Description
As of June 5, 2020, the outbreak of the coronavirus disease (COVID-19) had been confirmed in around 210
countries or territories. The virus had infected 6,731,793 people worldwide, and the number of deaths had
totaled 393,721. The most severely affected countries include the U.S., Spain, and the United Kingdom. COVID-
19: background information COVID-19 is a novel coronavirus that had not previously been identified in humans.
The first case was detected in the Hubei province of China at the end of December 2019. The virus is highly
transmissible, and thousands of new cases are being reported around the world each day. Coughing and
sneezing are believed to be the most common forms of transmission, which is similar to the outbreak of the
SARS coronavirus that began in 2002 and was thought to have spread via cough and sneeze droplets expelled
into the air by infected persons. Naming the coronavirus disease Coronaviruses are a group of viruses that can
be transmitted between animals and people, causing illnesses that may range from the common cold to more
severe respiratory syndromes. In February 2020, the International Committee on Taxonomy of Viruses and the
World Health Organization announced official names for both the virus and the disease it causes: SARS-CoV-2
and COVID-19, respectively. The name of the disease is derived from the words corona , virus , and disease ,
while the number 19 represents the year that it emerged.

Description
As of June 5, 2020, there were over 6.73 million global cases of COVID-19. Over 3.2 million people had
recovered from the disease, while there had been around 393,700 deaths. The United States, Spain, and the
United Kingdom have been among the countries hardest hit by the pandemic. The various types of human
coronavirus The SARS-CoV-2 virus is the seventh known coronavirus to infect humans; its emergence makes it
the third in recent years to cause widespread infectious disease, following the viruses responsible for SARS and
MERS. Common human coronaviruses typically cause mild symptoms such as a cough or a cold, but the novel
coronavirus SARS-CoV-2 has led to more severe respiratory illnesses and deaths worldwide. Is there a cure for
this new coronavirus? There are currently no dedicated treatments for COVID-19 . While clinical studies take
place to develop new drugs, pharmaceutical companies and research groups are experimenting to see if older
ones can be repurposed. During the SARS and MERS outbreaks, work began on investigational vaccines, and
this information is proving valuable in the race to find a treatment for COVID-19. The basic biology of the virus is
well understood, making it possible to decide which current drugs have a chance of success.

produced by the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention meant the early spread of the disease went
undetected for weeks. Elsewhere, concerns have been raised regarding the accuracy of some rapid diagnostic
tests (RDT), mainly due to their low sensitivity - India is one country that has canceled a large order of test kits
due to a low accuracy rate. What are rapid diagnostic tests? COVID-19 vaccines and treatments are undergoing
clinical trials, but it could take years before they are approved for public use. Until then, widespread testing is
helping to track the spread of the disease. RDTs are a point-of-care test, which can deliver results in around 30
minutes - more traditional diagnostic tests conducted in laboratory settings are more time consuming but provide
greater reliability. One type of RDT detects the presence of antibodies in a patient`s blood sample. Immune
system cells produce antibodies to fight pathogens, and the detection of them may mean the patient has
developed some natural immunity to the virus.

Description
As of June 5, 2020, Portugal had performed the third most COVID-19 tests per one million population among the
countries most severely impacted by the pandemic. Portugal has conducted around 874,000 COVID-19 tests
and has a population of approximately 10.2 million inhabitants . So, for every one million inhabitants, around
85,700 tests are conducted. Testing is the key to controlling virus The World Health Organization sent a clear
message to all countries in mid-March: test, test, and test. The more tests that are conducted, the easier it
becomes to track the spread of the virus and reduce transmission. Many countries followed the advice,
identifying a greater number of cases at an earlier stage, isolating infected individuals, and limiting the spread of
the disease to others. However, testing capacity around the world has become stretched, and many infections
are going undetected. Iran is one country that has suffered due to a shortage of critical supplies, including test
kits and face masks. What is an antibody test? Countries around the world are making widespread testing a key
part of their plans to exit lockdown. However, the global demand for antibody test kits is huge. The kits are used
to identify antibodies in a person`s blood sample. The presence of antibodies means the individual has been
exposed to the SARS-CoV-2 virus and developed antibodies to help fight it. Antibody tests are important in
detecting infections in people who are asymptomatic, i.e., showing few or no symptoms. Asymptomatic carriers
may have unwittingly contributed to the rapid spread of the disease.

Description
India reported around 139 thousand confirmed cases of the coronavirus (COVID-19) as of May 25, 2020. Out of
these, around 77 thousand patients had recovered, while 4,024 cases were fatal. The number of people infected
with the virus was growing across the south Asian country and the government had swung into action to curtail
further spread of the outbreak. Globally, over 5.5 million cases of the coronavirus were reported in May 2020.
What is the coronavirus? COVID-19 is part of a large family of coronaviruses (CoV) that are transmitted from
animals to people. The name COVID-19 is derived from the words corona, virus, and disease, while the number
19 represents the year that it emerged. Symptoms of COVID-19 resemble that of the common cold, with fever,
coughing, and shortness of breath. However, serious infections can lead to pneumonia, multi-organ failure,
severe acute respiratory syndrome, and even death, if appropriate medical help is not provided. COVID-19 in
India India reported its first case of this coronavirus in late January in the southern state of Kerala. Since then
the outbreak has spread to other states and union territories, with Maharashtra consistently reporting the highest
case numbers since mid-March 2020. The government imposed a 21-day nation-wide curfew from March 25 in
order to curb the spread of the outbreak, which was extended until May 3, 2020. The lockdown had been further
extended for another two weeks starting from May 4, 2020. As per the new guidelines, the country was divided
into red, orange and green zones. Red zones are designated as the hotspots and will not see any relaxations in
comparison to the areas considered less prone for the spread of the virus.

Description
India reported over 200 thousand cases of the coronavirus (COVID-19) as of June 3, 2020, with more than 100
thousand recoveries and 5,829 fatalities. The country has been reporting new cases of the virus every day since
March 2, 2020. While the number of new cases has been growing, some patients who tested positive under
quarantine have made full recoveries. Why the curve matters The World Health Organization along with other
global health authorities have repeatedly underlined the importance of "flattening the curve" to handle the novel
coronavirus pandemic. What does it mean? Simply put, the idea is to reduce the number of new cases over a
long period to allow people to have better access to healthcare and recovery without infecting others. If the
current trend continues, the Indian health system would be overwhelmed leading to more deaths than
recoveries. The most important idea is to cut transmission rates by practicing social distancing and following
proper hygiene routines. Situation overview The western state of Maharashtra had the highest number of cases
since early March. In order to cope with the crisis better, the government was making contingency plans to
increase COVID-19 testing capacities of the country. At the same time, the country went into a total lockdown on
March 25, making it the largest in the world , restricting 1.3 billion people. After further extensions, the country
was divided into red, orange and green zones. Red zones were designated hotspots and will not see any
relaxations in comparison to the areas considered less prone for the spread of the virus. Like other countries
across the world, restrictions were slowly being lifted to attempt building economic momentum. For further

Description
This statistic depicts the age distribution of India from 2008 to 2018. In 2018, about 27.05 percent of the Indian
population fell into the 0-14 year category, 66.77 percent into the 15-64 age group and 6.18 percent were over
65 years of age. Age distribution in India India is one of the largest countries in the world and its population is
constantly increasing. India`s society is categorized into a hierarchically organized caste system, encompassing
certain rights and values for each caste. Indians are born into a caste, and those belonging to a lower echelon
often face discrimination and hardship. The median age (which means that one half of the population is younger
and the other one is older) of India`s population has been increasing constantly after a slump in the 1970s, and
is expected to increase further over the next few years. However, in international comparison , it is fairly low; in
other countries the average inhabitant is about 20 years older. But India seems to be on the rise, not only is it a
member of the BRIC states - an association of emerging economies, the other members being Brazil, Russia
and China -, life expectancy of Indians has also increased significantly over the past decade, which is an
indicator of access to better health care and nutrition. Gender equality is still non-existant in India, even though
most Indians believe that the quality of life is about equal for men and women in their country. India is patriarchal
and women still often face forced marriages, domestic violence, dowry killings or rape. As of late, India has come
to be considered one of the least safe places for women worldwide. Additionally, infanticide and selective
abortion of female fetuses attribute to the inequality of women in India. It is believed that this has led to the fact
that the vast majority of Indian children aged 0 to 6 years are male.

Description
India`s public health expenditure has been steadily rising over the last decade in order to cater to its growing
population. In fiscal year 2018, the value of public health expenditure by states and union territories together
amounted to around 1.58 trillion Indian rupees. This was estimated to be around 1.28 percent of the country`s
GDP . In comparison, the United States` budget estimates showed an outlay of over 17 percent of the GDP to
public health expenditure in its fiscal year 2018. When wealth decides health Overall, India`s per capita
expenditure on health amounted to over 1,600 Indian rupees that same year. However, this was an average
estimate with some parts of the country focusing on health far more than others. For example, the larger and
wealthier states like Maharashtra and Uttar Pradesh spent between 120 to 180 billion rupees on health in fiscal
year 2018; whereas north-eastern states which have historically been poorer and more remote, spent around
three to six billion rupees on healthcare that year. Private versus public The low health expenditure by the
government has led to a highly developed private health care sector. Private hospitals make up more than half of
the country`s healthcare infrastructure, while private insurance is usually the norm for middle to upper class
citizens. However, this is not to say that the government is not working towards its goal of universal healthcare
by 2025. Various programs like the Ayushman Bharat and the National Health Mission have already showed
some success by providing the common man with an alternative to exorbitant healthcare costs and treatments.

for the month following the survey period. This included the opinion that travelers into India should only be
allowed if they had a "coronavirus free" certificate from the country of departure or boarding port. With the
outbreak of the coronavirus (COVID-19) in late 2019, countries across the world have implemented entry
restrictions, quarantine measures and travel advisories to help contain the virus. As of March 13, 2020, the
Indian government suspended existing visas with exceptions until April 15, 2020. The country went into
lockdown on March 25, the largest in the world , restricting 1.3 billion people. For further information about the
