SARS are severe acute respiratory syndrome. The SARS are generally caused by the SARS virus. The new one added to this category is the COVID 19. SARS is a type of neumonia or lung infection that can lead to death. This was first reported in the 2003 in china. We know that the in our lungs we have bronchioles that end up in alveoli. In SARS majorly the alveoli is filled with pus and fluid and thus affecting the breathing in a serious way. As it is virus caused it has an incubation period. It is told that the person become contagious when he have fever. In most of the SARS the start of infection is unknown and still no vaccines are developed against SARS. As they are virus they invade the CD4+ molecules and disrupt the immune mechanism and making that body easy for its growth. The respiratory difficulty create a situation of hypoxia where the body becomes weak and sometimes may lead to cardiac arrest.
