Journal Title: International Journal of Trend in Scientific Research and Development - Year 2020, Vol 4, Issue 6
Abstract
From late fall to winter of 2020, the further challenge of medical care for thetwindemic of coronavirus infectious disease 2019 COVID 19 and seasonal influenza is imminent. The key to that is the ability of family doctors to protect the front lines of community medicine. It is difficult not only for patients but also for doctors to distinguish COVID 19 from seasonal flu only based on initial symptoms such as fever and malaise. Every year, patients with suspected seasonal flu are tested and, if positive, are treated with influenza drugs. However, due to the expansion of COVID 19, tests using a nasopharyngeal swab have a high risk of droplet infection. In this review, we would like to discuss the clinical similarities and differences between COVID 19 and seasonal influenza, including new findings.The coronavirus infectious disease 2019 COVID 19 pandemic, also known as the coronavirus pandemic, is an ongoing global pandemic of COVID 19, caused by severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 SARS CoV 2 1 .The outbreak was first identified in December 2019 in Wuhan, China 2,3 .The World Health Organization WHO declared the outbreak a Public Health Emergency of International Concern on 30January 2020 and a pandemic on 11March 2020 4,5 .As of 30 August 2020,more than 25million cases of COVID 19 have been reported in more than 188 countries and territories, resulting in more than 843,000 deaths more than 16.4million people have recovered 6 .The WHO has published a report summarizing the differences between the COVID 19 and influenza 7 .
