The best way to prevent and slow down transmission is be well informed about the COVID-19 virus, the disease it causes and how it spreads.
About 80% of those infected with the virus recover from the disease. Around 1 out of every 6 people who gets COVID-19 becomes seriously ill and develops difficulty in breathing. Older people, and those with underlying medical problems like high blood pressure, heart problems or diabetes, are more likely to develop serious illnesses. Therefore, they should take the precautionary measures to keep themselves safe
