IV. SARS COV-2 and COVID-19: Where We Are Then and Now Directions: Read an excerpt from a Department of Health (DOH) article on COVID- 19 Disease. Then answer the questions that follow. BACKGROUND The novel coronavirus, SARS COV-2, first isolated in Wuhan City, Hubei province, in China last December 2019, has caused a global pandemic with staggering speed. As of June 30, 2020, there were more than > 10,000,000 COVID-19 cases worldwide, with more than 500,000 reported deaths... The situation in the Philippines has also rapidly evolved, with a single case identified last January 30, 2020, to over 200 cases by March 16, 2020... The clinical presentation of COVID-19 disease ranges from a mild common cold-like illness to a severe viral pneumonia leading to acute respiratory distress syndrome that is potentially fatal. Large, retrospective case series from China have shown that the elderly, those with comorbidities, and those with pneumonia are most at risk for severe disease (3- 6). The predominant mode of transmission remains person to person spread via respiratory droplets. The peak of infectiousness is just before or within 5 days of symptom onset. The main driver of transmission remains the symptomatic group although presymptomatics and asymptomatics may transmit the disease but to a lesser extent. Treatment is largely supportive, although in-vitro and early observational data regarding the off-label use of several re-purposed drugs, such as remdesivir, chloroquine, hydroxychloroquine, lopinavir-ritonavir and tocilizumab showed some promise. Various pharmacologic and nonpharmacologic interventions are being investigated in a clinical trial or given as compassionate use. Supportive care and intensive respiratory management remain the standard of care for COVID-19...
