New coronavirus and common virus, what is the difference?

The full name of neocoronavirus pneumonia is neocoronavirus, which is an acute infectious disease caused by neocoronavirus infection.In 2020, the National Health Commission tentatively named pneumonia caused by neocoronavirus infection as neocoronavirus, with the English name neocoronavirus pneumonia. What is the difference between a new coronavirus and a common virus?

1. The new coronavirus is different from previous coronaviruses. In general, the incubation period of common coronaviruses is 2-5 days, and the incubation period is usually not infectious or contagious. However, in the new coronavirus, the incubation period is usually 3-7 days, with a maximum of 14 days, and it is also contagious. Since it is a newly discovered virus, there is no specific drug for this virus. Therefore, early detection, early detection and early isolation are the most effective prevention and control measures.

2. New coronavirus is an inflammation of the lungs caused by a new coronavirus. There is no specific treatment and it is widely spread. According to the existing knowledge, it is known that this disease can be transmitted through droplets, breathing, contact or person-to-person transmission. And according to epidemiologic investigations, the incubation period of this virus is usually from 1 to 14 days. The main symptom is fever with dry cough, malaise and dyspnea.

Then the common viral pneumonia is caused by various infectious factors. The main symptom of this disease is cough, usually accompanied by shortness of breath and dyspnea. Usually, taking some special medicines will significantly improve the situation. Among the new coronaviruses, there is no specific medicine for this disease. At the same time, there is a significant difference in imaging between novel coronavirus and common pneumonia. This allows a good distinction between the two diseases.

3, first, the pathogens that cause disease are different. The common cold is mostly caused by viral infections, including adenovirus, rhinovirus, respiratory syncytial virus and so on. The new coronavirus is caused by the new coronavirus infection. Second, in terms of symptoms, the common cold is mainly characterized by respiratory symptoms, including sneezing, runny nose, sore throat, cough, etc.. , and fever is not common. The common symptoms of new crown pneumonia are fever, malaise and dry cough, and some patients will progress to respiratory distress in about a week. Third, the common cold is weakly contagious, while the new coronavirus is highly contagious. Fourth, the common cold usually recovers quickly, rarely gets worse, and has a good prognosis. However, the new coronavirus has a long duration of illness, and the proportion of severe illness and mortality rate is higher than that of the common cold.
