    • D.

      None of these

    Correct Answer
    A. COVID-19
    Explanation
    COVID-19 is the name given to the disease caused by the coronavirus that spread in Wuhan. It stands for "coronavirus disease 2019," as it was first identified in December 2019. The name was chosen to avoid stigmatizing any specific geographic location, animal, or group of people. It is important to use the correct name to accurately refer to the disease and prevent misinformation or discrimination.

    COVID-19 affects which part of the human body?

    • A.

      Heart

    • B.

      Lungs

    • C.

      Brain

    • D.

      Kidney

    Correct Answer
    B. Lungs
    Explanation
    COVID-19 primarily affects the lungs. The virus enters the body through respiratory droplets and attaches to the ACE2 receptors present in the lungs. It then infects the cells lining the respiratory tract, causing inflammation and damage to the lung tissue. This can lead to symptoms such as cough, shortness of breath, and pneumonia. In severe cases, COVID-19 can result in acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS), where the lungs become severely inflamed and filled with fluid, making it difficult to breathe. Therefore, the correct answer is lungs.

    Correct Answer
    D. All of above
    Explanation
    COVID-19 can spread in all age groups. While older individuals and those with pre-existing medical conditions are at a higher risk of developing severe illness, it is important to note that COVID-19 can affect people of all ages. This includes children, who may experience milder symptoms compared to older individuals but can still transmit the virus to others. Therefore, all age groups are susceptible to the spread of COVID-19.

    Explanation
    RT-PCR stands for Reverse Transcription Polymerase Chain Reaction. It is a widely used test for the detection of COVID-19. This test involves the extraction of RNA from a patient's sample, followed by reverse transcription of the RNA into DNA. The DNA is then amplified using a technique called polymerase chain reaction (PCR), which allows for the detection of the viral genetic material. RT-PCR is highly sensitive and specific in detecting the presence of the SARS-CoV-2 virus, making it the preferred method for diagnosing COVID-19.

This period can vary from person to person, but generally falls within the range of 1-14 days. It is important to note that some individuals may be asymptomatic and never develop symptoms, while others may start showing symptoms within a few days of exposure. Therefore, it is crucial to practice preventive measures and follow public health guidelines to reduce the risk of transmission.

    An effective way to clean hands is

    • A.

      Wash hands with hot water

    • B.

      Wash hands with cold water

    • C.

      No need of cleaning hands

    Correct Answer
    C. Follow a minimum 20 seconds wash cycle with soap, water or alcohol based hand sanitizer
    Explanation
    The correct answer is "Follow a minimum 20 seconds wash cycle with soap, water or alcohol based hand sanitizer." This is because washing hands with soap and water or using an alcohol-based hand sanitizer for at least 20 seconds is an effective way to clean hands and remove germs. Hot or cold water alone may not be sufficient to kill germs, and not cleaning hands at all would leave them dirty and potentially contaminated.
