Corona Virus History

Coronaviruses are a large family of viruses that have been around for centuries. They can cause respiratory illness in both humans and animals. The first human coronavirus was identified in the mid-1960s, and since then, seven coronaviruses have been known to infect humans.

Three of these coronaviruses have caused major outbreaks in recent years:

* Severe acute respiratory syndrome (SARS-CoV) in 2002-2003

* Middle East respiratory syndrome (MERS-CoV) in 2012

* Coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) in 2019-present

SARS-CoV and MERS-CoV are both highly deadly viruses, but they did not cause global pandemics. COVID-19, on the other hand, is highly contagious and has caused a global pandemic.

**COVID-19 history**

COVID-19 was first identified in Wuhan, China, in December 2019. The virus quickly spread to other parts of China and then to other countries around the world. In March 2020, the World Health Organization (WHO) declared COVID-19 a pandemic.

COVID-19 has had a devastating impact on the world. More than 6.3 million people have died from the virus, and billions more have been infected. The virus has also caused widespread economic and social disruption.

**COVID-19 vaccines**

The development of COVID-19 vaccines was one of the scientific achievements of the 21st century. Several safe and effective vaccines were developed and approved in record time. COVID-19 vaccines have helped to reduce the number of cases, hospitalizations, and deaths from the virus.

**Conclusion**

Coronaviruses are a serious threat to human health. COVID-19 has shown us how quickly and easily a coronavirus can spread and cause a global pandemic. We must continue to invest in research and development to improve our understanding of coronaviruses and to develop new vaccines and treatments.
