COVID 19 is a infectious viral disease caused due to a group of virus called corona virus.The major target group of this virus are the people who are immunocompromised like people with diabete,elder age group ,drugs like corticosteroids,patients undergoing chemotherapy are the most susceptible.The main organ that is targeted is lungs.As with other viruses the corona virus also has ss rna which enters the cell membrane through its receptors and as a result get embedded into normal dna and after that the virus starts to replicate

The patient experiences dry cough,fever,shortness of breath,fatigue

The diseases that are the cause of mortlality are pneumonia and acute respiratory distress syndrome

The COVID-19 virus infects cells of the respiratory system. The virus spreads by moving from one cell to the next. While the virus moves from one cell to the next, it will outside of the cell temporarily and can be taken up by an antigen-presenting cell (APC) for processing and presentation. Explain how these antigens would be presented on the surface of these cells so that the immune system could react against it. What cells would recognise these antigens and...
