The document discusses the COVID-19 pandemic, caused by the SARS-CoV-2 virus. It describes how the outbreak began in Wuhan, China in December 2019 and was declared a pandemic by the WHO in March 2020. The virus spreads primarily through respiratory droplets from coughs and sneezes and can also spread by touching contaminated surfaces. Common symptoms include fever, cough and shortness of breath. There is no vaccine and treatment focuses on relieving symptoms. Preventive measures include hand washing, social distancing and self-isolation of those infected. The pandemic has caused major global socioeconomic disruptions.

2. Pandemic Koronavirus 2019 – 2020 or known as the COVID-19 pandemic is a spreading
disease of Koronavirus 2019 (English: Coronavirus disease 2019, abbreviated COVID-19)
worldwide. The disease is caused by a new type of Koronavirus which is named SARS-CoV-2.
(Gorbalenya, 2020) The COVID-19 outbreak was first detected in Wuhan city, Hubei Province,
China in December 2019, and was designated as a pandemic by the World Health Organization
(WHO) on March 11, 2020. (www.who.int, 2020) The SARS-CoV-2 Virus is thought to spread
among people primarily through the respiratory splashes (droplet) produced during coughs.
(Getting your workplace ready for COVID-19, 2020) (Q & A on COVID-19, 2020) (Q&A on
coronaviruses, 2020) (Symptoms of Novel Coronavirus (2019-nCoV), 2020)This splash can also
be produced from sneezing and normal breathing. In addition, the virus can spread due to
touching the surface of contaminated objects and then touching one's face (Q&A on
coronaviruses, 2020). The COVID-19 disease is most contagious when the person who suffered
it has symptoms, although the spread may occur before symptoms arise. (Coronavirus Disease
2019 (COVID-19), 2020). The time period between the viral exposure and the emergence of
symptoms is usually about five days, but can range from two to fourteen days (Symptoms of
Novel Coronavirus (2019-nCoV), 2020) (Rothan & Byrareddy, 2020). Common symptoms
include fever, cough, and shortness of breath (Symptoms of Novel Coronavirus (2019-nCoV),
2020) (Rothan & Byrareddy, 2020). Complications can be pneumonia and severe acute
respiratory disease. No vaccine or antiviral treatment is specific to this disease. The primary
treatment provided is symptomatic and supportive therapy. The recommended preventive
measures include washing hands, closing the mouth when coughing, maintaining distance from
others, as well as monitoring and self-isolation for people who suspect that they are infected
(Q&A on coronaviruses, 2020) (Symptoms of Novel Coronavirus (2019-nCoV), 2020)
(Coronavirus Disease 2019 (COVID-19), 2020). Attempts to prevent the spread of viruses
include travel restrictions, quarantine, night-time enforcement, event delays and cancellations, as
well as closure of facilities. These efforts included Hubei quarantine, national quarantine in Italy
and elsewhere in Europe, as well as curfew in China and South Korea, (Coronavirus : Shanghai
neighbour Zhejiang imposes draconian quarantine, 2020) (Marsh, 2020) (China's new
pneumonia epidemic 'restricted movement' to 780 million people) Various country border
closures or incoming passenger restrictions, (Nikel, 2020) (Coronavirus Poland to close borders
to foreigners, quarantine returnees, 2020) screening at airports and railway stations, (Coronavirus

3. Update : Masks And Temperature Checks In Hong Kong, 2020) as well as travel information on
regions with local transmissions. (Coronavirus Disease 2019 Information for Trevel, 2020)
(Deerwester & Gilbertson, 2020) (Coronavirus Live Updates, 2020) (Huang, et al., 2020) (Latest
information and advice, 2020) schools and universities have been closed either nationally or
locally in more than 124 countries and have influenced more than 1.2 billion students. (COVID-
19 Educational Disruption and Response, 2020). This pandemic has led to global socioeconomic
disruptions, (Here Comes the Coronavirus Pandemic, 2020) delays or cancellations of sporting
and cultural events, (Coronavirus Cancellations : An Updating list, 2020) and widespread
concerns about the shortage of goods inventory driving panic purchases. (Scipioni, 2020) (The
Coronavirus Outbreak Could Disrupt the U.S. Drug Supply, 2020) Misinformation and
conspiracy theories about viruses have spread online, (Perper, 2020) (Clamp, 2020) and there has
been a xenophobic incident and racism against the Chinese and other East Asians or Southeast
Asian people. (Weston, 2020).
The first suspected case was reported on 31 December 2019. (Pneumonia of unknown
cause- China Disease outbreak news, 2020) Early symptoms began popping three weeks earlier
on 8 December 2019. (Schnirring, 2020) The market closed on 1 January 2020 and people who
experienced similar symptoms were quarantined. (Pneumonia of unknown cause- China Disease
outbreak news, 2020) Approximately 700 people were involved with unexpected contact,
including + 400 hospital workers, undergoing quarantine. (Schnirring, China release genetic data
on new coronavirus, now deadly, 2020) As the PCR tests the development of a specific test to
detect infections, 41 people in Wuhan were known to have a SARS-CoV-2 Korona virus, (Hui,
et al., 2020) (Lu, Stratton, Charles, & Tang, 2020) two of whom were wives, one of whom had
never been to the market, and three people were members of one family working in a fish shop.
(Schnirring, Second Family cluster found in Wuhan novel coronavirus outbreak, 2020) (Wee &
Jr, 2020) The casualties began to fall on 9 January (Qin & Hernandez, 2020) and 16 January
2020. (Schirring, 2020) (Kyodo, 2020) (wjw.wuhan.gov.cn, 2020)
On January 20, China reported a sharp increase in this case with nearly 140 new patients,
including two people in Beijing and one in Shenzhen. (Korban tewas virus misterius di China
bertambah banyak negara kini waspada, 2020) As of March 3, the number of laboratory
confirmed cases has reached 93,000 cases, consisting of more than 80,000 cases in mainland

4. China, and the remainder in some other countries. (2019 Novel Coronavirus (2019-nCoV), 2020)
(France-Presse, 2020) (Deng, 2020) (广东确诊1例新型冠状病毒感染的肺炎病例) (South
Korea confirms first case of new coronavirus in Chinese visitor, 2020) (Hermesauto, 2020)
On 8 February 2020, it was announced that a Japanese citizen and a United States citizen
died of a virus in Wuhan. They were the first foreigners to die from the Korona virus.
(Tempo.co., n.d.) The first case of the death outside of Asia occurred in Paris, France on 15
February 2020, when a 80-year-old Chinese tourist from Hubei died after being hospitalized
since 25 January.
The basic reproductive figures for the transmission of human to human viruses are
estimated to be between 2 and 4. The number illustrates how many newly infected living
creatures are likely to transmit viruses in a human population. The new Korona Virus has
reportedly been able to deliver chains of up to four people so far. (How the new coronavirus
stacks up against SARS and MERS)
