What is coronavirus?

Coronaviruses are a family of viruses that can cause respiratory illness in humans. They are called "corona" because of crown-like spikes on the surface of the virus. Severe acute respiratory syndrome (SARS), Middle East respiratory syndrome (MERS) and the common cold are examples of coronaviruses that cause illness in humans.

How many people are infected with COVID-19?

The number of people infected changes daily. As of this writing (10/11/2021), more than 196,910,000 people in the world have been infected. Over 4,850,000 people have died. Some 192 countries and territories on all continents have now reported cases of COVID-19.

How do you get infected with COVID-19?

COVID-19 enters your body through your mouth, nose or eyes (directly from the airborne droplets or from transfer of the virus from your hands to your face). The virus travels to the back of your nasal passages and mucous membrane in the back of your throat. It attaches to cells there, begins to multiply and moves into lung tissue. From there, the virus can spread to other body tissues.

How does the new coronavirus (COVID-19) spread from person to person? COVID -19 is likely spread: The virus travels in respiratory droplets released into the air when an infected person coughs, sneezes, talks, sings or breathes near you (within 6 feet). You may be infected if you inhale these droplets. You can also get COVID-19 from close contact ( touching, shaking hands ) with an infected person and then touching your face. It's considered possible to get COVID-19 after touching a contaminated surface and then touching your eyes, mouth, or nose before washing your hands. But it's thought to be unlikely . Where do coronaviruses come from?

Dry fruit”

This paper is based on a scientific workshop, convened on 7 June 2018 at the Kings Fund, London, UK to explore key scientific issues relating to dried fruits. Dried fruits have been part of the diet for thousands of years as a means of preserving seasonal fruits and as a tradeable commodity. Key issues identified at the outset were the lack of consensus and general confusion over the definition of dried fruit, equivalence of the portion size to fresh fruit, and on account of dental health, whether dried fruit is suitable as a snack or should be restricted to meals. The key scientific aims were to explore the evidence base for the potential contribution of traditional dried fruits to public health, identify gaps in the evidence, and establish priorities for further research. The following is a summary of the main topics covered in the workshop, followed by a report of the round table discussion (titles of the presentations and related speakers are listed in "Acknowledgm
