Name a clinical trial in which blood is transfused from recovered COVID-19 patients to a coronavirus patient who is in critical condition?
- A.
Plasma Therapy
- B.
Solidarity
- C.
Remdesivir
- D.
Hydroxychloroquine
Correct Answer
A. Plasma TherapyExplanation
Plasma therapy is a clinical trial where blood is transfused from recovered COVID-19 patients to a coronavirus patient who is in critical condition. This therapy involves extracting plasma from the blood of recovered individuals, which contains antibodies that can help fight against the virus. By transfusing this plasma into a critically ill patient, it is believed that the antibodies can boost their immune system and potentially improve their condition. This experimental treatment is being explored as a potential way to treat severe cases of COVID-19.Rate this question:

How does Coronavirus transmit?
- A.
When a person sneezes or cough, droplets spread in the air or fall on the ground and nearby surfaces.
- B.
If another person is nearby and inhales the droplets or touches these surfaces and further touches his face, eyes or mouth, he or she can get an infection
- C.
If the distance is less than 1 meter from the infected person.
- D.
All the above are correct.
Correct Answer
D. All the above are correct.Explanation
The correct answer is that all of the above are correct. This is because the coronavirus can transmit through droplets that are spread in the air when a person sneezes or coughs, as well as when these droplets fall on the ground or nearby surfaces. If another person is nearby and inhales these droplets or touches contaminated surfaces and then touches their face, eyes, or mouth, they can become infected. Additionally, the transmission is more likely to occur if the distance between the infected person and another person is less than 1 meter.Rate this question:

What happens to a person suffering from COVID-19?
- A.
Around 80% of the people will require no treatment as such and will recover on their own.
- B.
Around <20% or a small proportion may need hospitalisation.
- C.
A very small proportion basically suffering from chronic illness may need admission in an Intensive Care Unit (ICU).
- D.
All the above are correct
Correct Answer
D. All the above are correctExplanation
The given answer states that all the options mentioned in the question are correct. This means that a person suffering from COVID-19 can have different outcomes. Around 80% of people will recover on their own without requiring any treatment. However, around 20% or a small proportion may need hospitalization. Additionally, a very small proportion of individuals suffering from chronic illness may require admission to an Intensive Care Unit (ICU). Therefore, all the options mentioned in the question are correct in terms of the possible outcomes for a person with COVID-19.Rate this question:

In which age group the COVID-19 spreads?
- A.
COVID-19 occur in all age groups
- B.
Coronavirus infection is mild in children.
- C.
Older person and persons with pre-existing medical conditions are at high risk to develop serious illness.
- D.
All the above are correct
Correct Answer
D. All the above are correctExplanation
COVID-19 can spread in all age groups, making the statement "COVID-19 occurs in all age groups" correct. Although children generally experience milder symptoms, they can still contract and transmit the virus, supporting the statement "Coronavirus infection is mild in children." Older individuals and those with pre-existing medical conditions are more vulnerable to severe illness if they contract the virus, validating the statement "Older person and persons with pre-existing medical conditions are at high risk to develop serious illness." Therefore, all the given statements are correct.Rate this question:

What is Coronavirus?
- A.
It is a large family of viruses.
- B.
It belongs to the family of Nidovirus.
- C.
Both A and B are correct
- D.
Only A is correct
Correct Answer
C. Both A and B are correctExplanation
Both options A and B are correct because coronavirus is indeed a large family of viruses, and it also belongs to the family of Nidovirus. The coronavirus family includes several strains, with the most well-known ones being SARS-CoV, MERS-CoV, and the novel coronavirus SARS-CoV-2, which causes COVID-19. Nidoviruses are a group of viruses that have a common genetic characteristic of having a large single-stranded RNA genome. Therefore, both statements accurately describe the nature of the coronavirus.Rate this question:

- A.
COVID-19
- B.
COVn-19
- C.
COnV-20
- D.
COnVID-19
Correct Answer
A. COVID-19Explanation
The World Health Organisation (WHO) announced on 11 February, 2020 that the official name for the disease causing the 2019 novel coronavirus outbreak is COVID-19. This name was chosen to avoid stigmatizing any specific geographic location, animal, individual, or group of people. The name COVID-19 is derived from "coronavirus disease 2019," indicating the year when the outbreak was first identified.Rate this question:

The first case of novel coronavirus was identified in .....
- A.
Beijing
- B.
Shanghai
- C.
Wuhan, Hubei
- D.
Tianjin
Correct Answer
C. Wuhan, HubeiExplanation
The correct answer is Wuhan, Hubei. The first case of novel coronavirus was identified in Wuhan, Hubei. Wuhan is the capital city of Hubei province in China and it is believed to be the epicenter of the COVID-19 outbreak. The virus is thought to have originated from a seafood market in Wuhan, where live wild animals were also sold. From there, it quickly spread to other parts of China and eventually to other countries around the world.Rate this question:

Which of the following diseases are related to coronavirus?
- A.
MERS
- B.
SARS
- C.
Both A and B
- D.
Neither A nor B
Correct Answer
C. Both A and BExplanation
Both MERS (Middle East Respiratory Syndrome) and SARS (Severe Acute Respiratory Syndrome) are diseases caused by different types of coronaviruses. MERS is caused by the MERS-CoV virus, while SARS is caused by the SARS-CoV virus. Both diseases primarily affect the respiratory system and can lead to severe illness and even death. Therefore, the correct answer is "Both A and B" as both MERS and SARS are related to coronaviruses.Rate this question:

From where coronavirus got its name?
- A.
Due to their crown-like projections.
- B.
Due to their leaf-like projections.
- C.
Due to their surface structure of bricks.
- D.
None of the above
Correct Answer
A. Due to their crown-like projections.Explanation
The coronavirus got its name due to its crown-like projections. These projections are spike proteins that cover the surface of the virus, giving it a crown-like appearance under a microscope. The word "corona" means crown in Latin, which is why the virus was named coronavirus. This name accurately describes the unique physical characteristic of the virus and helps to differentiate it from other types of viruses.Rate this question:
