Coronavirus Disease, officially named as COVID-19, started as an epidemic in a live animal market in Wuhan, China, and spread throughout the world at an alarming rate. It was declared a pandemic by WHO on 11th March, 2020. The virus causing the disease was initially named 2019 Novel Coronavirus (2019-nCoV), but later officially renamed by WHO as Severe Acute Respiratory Syndrome- Coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2). This virus is related to SARS-CoV and MERS-CoV that caused epidemics in China and Saudi Arabia in 2002 and 2012, respectively. The virus primarily affects the lungs, and causes death in a small proportion of patients due to Acute Respiratory Distress Syndrome (ARDS). The data on this new disease is very early, and might change as new data emerges.

Job satisfaction - does it impact on-job performance?Fatema Tandiwala
What is "Satisfaction"?
Satisfaction means the simple feeling of attainment of any goal or objective.
What do you understand by "Job Satisfaction"?
Job satisfaction refers to a person’s feeling of satisfaction on the job, which acts as a motivation to work. It is not the self-satisfaction, happiness or self-contentment but the satisfaction on the job.
Job satisfaction relates to the total relationship between an individual and the employer for which he is paid.
What does "Job Dissatisfaction" say?
Job dissatisfaction brings an absence of motivation at work.
Neuromarketing is the formal study of the brain’s responses to advertising and branding, and the adjustment of those messages based on feedback to elicit even better responses. Researchers use technologies such as functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI) and electroencephalography (EEG) to measure specific types of brain activity in response to advertising messages. With this information, companies learn why consumers make the decisions they do, and what parts of the brain are motivating them to do so.
DuPont analysis is a useful technique to break down the different return on equity (ROE) generators. The ROE decomposition helps investors to concentrate separately on key indicators of financial success to define strengths and weaknesses.
Three main financial metrics drive equity return (ROE): operating performance, asset usage performance, and financial leverage. Operating output is a net profit margin or a net income separated by overall revenue or profits.
The efficiency of asset usage is determined by the turnover ratio of the assets. Leverage is calculated by the equity multiplier, equal to average assets divided by average equities.
The component parts of a firm's return on equity (ROE) are calculated using a DuPont analysis. This allows an investor to assess, which financial activities contribute the most to the ROE changes
So what exactly is Personality ?
Personality refers to individual differences in characteristic patterns of thinking, feeling and behaving.
The study of personality focuses on two broad areas: One is understanding individual differences in particular personality characteristics, such as sociability or irritability.
What do we understand from Myers Briggs Indicator Test?
The Myers-Briggs Type Indicator (MBTI) assessment is a psychometric questionnaire designed to measure psychological preferences in how people perceive the world and make decisions.
Want to know how to organize an event?
The presentation talks about the entire procedure on hosting a college event festival & how to manage it.
Event Management refers to an act of planning, coordinating, running and organizing an event for people, teams, communities etc.

2. What is COVID-19?
A new virus called the severe acute respiratory syndrome
coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) was identified as the cause of a
disease outbreak that began in China in 2019. The disease is
called coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19).
In early 2020, after a December 2019 outbreak in China, the
World Health Organization identified SARS-CoV-2 as a new
type of coronavirus. The outbreak quickly spread around the
world.
3. Why is it called Coronavirus?
Coronaviruses are a large group of viruses that have crown-
like thorns on their surface. The Latin word for crown
is coronam.
Coronavirus refers to a large family of viruses that includes
SARS-CoV-2, the virus that causes COVID-19. For this reason,
some people call the virus coronavirus.
Crown = “Corona”
4. ORIGIN OF THE VIRUS
Circulated in a veried range of animals
Spillover
Effected due to a
range of factors
MERS-COV
SARS-COV
5. Coronaviruses are a big family of different viruses. Some of
them cause the common cold in people. Others infect
animals, including bats, camels, and cattle.
The recent outbreak began in Wuhan, a city in the Hubei
province of China. Reports of the first COVID-19 cases
started in December 2019.
SARS-CoV-2 made the jump to humans at one of Wuhan’s
open-air “wet markets.” They’re where customers buy fresh
meat and fish, including animals that are killed on the spot.
Coronavirus History
7. Coronaviruses mainly spreads from person to person among
those in close contact (within about 6 feet, or 2 meters). The
virus spreads by respiratory droplets released when
someone infected with the virus coughs, sneezes, breathes,
sings or talks. These droplets can be inhaled or land in the
mouth, nose or eyes of a person nearby.
Sometimes the COVID-19 virus can spread when a person is
exposed to small droplets that stay in the air for several
minutes or hours — called airborne transmission
How does the Coronavirus spread?
8. SYMPTOMS
Exposure Symptoms
5-6 days
Range from 1-14 days
Very mild to
severe
Some may be
asymptomatic
Fever
Fatigue
Respiratory symptoms
Cough
Sore throat
Shortness of breath
9. Some people
Loss of smell or taste Skin rash
Severe cases
Pneumonia
Diarrhea
Organ failure Death
10. COVID-19 symptoms can be very mild to severe. Some
people have no symptoms. The most common symptoms
are fever, cough and tiredness.
Other symptoms may include shortness of breath, muscle
aches, chills, sore throat, headache, chest pain, and loss of
taste or smell. This list is not all inclusive. Other less
common symptoms have also been reported. Symptoms
may appear two to 14 days after exposure.
What are the symptoms of Coronavirus?
11. RISK FACTORS
people recover without needing special treatment
80%
Older people
Chronic respiratory
disease
Obesity
High blood pressure Diabetes
Cancer
Heart disease
12. • serious heart conditions, such as heart failure, coronary
artery disease, or cardiomyopathies
• kidney disease
• chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD)
• obesity, which occurs in people with a body mass index
(BMI) of 30 or higher
• sickle cell disease
• a weakened immune system from a solid organ transplant
• type 2 diabetes
Which groups are at risk?
The risk is higher for anyone in close contact with people who
have COVID-19, such as healthcare workers. Others are:-
14. Which are the diagnostic tests?
PCR test: This tests for the presence of the actual virus’s
genetic material or its fragments as it breaks down. This is
the most reliable and accurate test for detecting active
infection.
Antibody (serology) test: This tests detects if you’ve had an
immune response (antibodies) to the virus. This means that
you’ve had the virus and your body (immune system,
specifically antibodies) has mounted an attack to fight it. The
test is detecting those antibodies. This test shouldn’t be
used to diagnose an active infection.
16. Coronavirus Treatment
Treatment at Home
• Rest: It can make you feel better and may speed your
recovery.
• Stay home: Don't go to work, school, or public places.
• Drink fluids: Dehydration can make symptoms worse and
cause other health problems.
• Monitor: If your symptoms get worse, call your doctor right
away. Don't go to their office without calling first.
• Ask your doctor about over-the-counter medicines that may
help, like acetaminophen to lower your fever.
17. Treatment in the Hospital
• Check the levels of oxygen in your blood with a clip-on
finger monitor.
• Listen to your lungs.
• Give you a COVID-19 test. This involves putting a 6-inch
cotton swab up both sides of your nose for about 15
seconds.
• Give you a chest X-ray or CT scan.
18. MEDICATION
In October 2020, the FDA approved the antiviral drug
Remdesivir to treat COVID-19. The drug may be used to treat
adults and children ages 12 and older and weighing at least 88
pounds, who have been hospitalized for COVID-19. Clinical trials
suggest that in these patients, remdesivir may modestly speed
up recovery time.

21. Protect Yourself & Others
Ways to prevent the spread:
• Wear a mask that covers your nose and mouth to help
protect yourself and others.
• Stay 6 feet apart from others who don’t live with you.
• Get a COVID-19 vaccine when it is available to you.
• Avoid crowds and poorly ventilated indoor spaces.
• Wash your hands often with soap and water.
• Use hand sanitizer if soap and water aren’t available.
