Synopsis

Is this really happening? I watch in almost disbelief that all schools and businesses are closed across the country. I watch on TV, read online and hear what reporters, politicians, governmental officials and many in the medical community are saying and it just does not add up. The information I am hearing in the media does not correlate well with what I see and what I hear from many physician colleagues across the country. I understand that COVID-19 can be bad, but is the fear and panic warranted? What is the risk to me, you or our families? Is it as bad as many report? I just cannot help but get a funny feeling that something is not right. Am I missing something? Is the public not being told something? Is there some other or ulterior motive for all of this? How can the predictions be so off? How many people have really died and how are the number of deaths calculated? Why can't we get answers? I realized there are many questions and no one seems to really have answers. Those who do, often give various answers and their answers seem to change with time. I get the feeling I am in a bad dream or an episode of the Twilight zoneThe good news is when you research things and look at the data from the CDC, Johns Hopkins, and other reputable sources and read many articles from USAToday, CBSnews, ABC, Fox etc., you discover that while SARS-CoV-2, and the COVID-19 illness that it causes, can be severe and has killed many people, there is hope. There is also information that put things in perspective that should reassure any concerned, educated, or intelligent individual that there are measures we can do to help impede the spread and lessen the chances of catching COVID-19.Recently, there are studies being done at reputable medical centers, and there is encouraging results. This is not to say all is clear, it is just to allow people to get a more complete understanding that all the news is not bad. There is plenty of good news and there may be a silver lining in this grey cloud of COVID-19. I discuss this in the book.COVID-19 will help you, the reader, get a better understanding of COVID-19, and clear up some of the confusion that may exist understanding what it is versus Coronavirus or SARS-CoV-2. It discusses 1) its origin, 2) how it was named, 3) how it is spread and 4) what you can do to protect yourself. It discusses 5) what things can make it worse. It discusses the 6) different kinds of tests there are for it and 7) how accurate they may be. This informative book is packed with facts and figures from the CDC, government entities, health care facilities and news reporters. The goal is help inform you about SARS-CoV-2, the novel Coronavirus, and COVID-19 and help you understand it better and what you might hear on television better so you can make better informed decisions.
