Subject: - Biology Coronaviruses (CoV) are a family of RNA (ribonucleic acid) viruses. They are called coronaviruses
because the virus particle exhibits a characteristic ‘corona’ (crown) of spike proteins around its lipid
envelope. CoV infections are common in animals and humans. Some strains of CoV are zoonotic,
meaning they can be transmitted between animals and humans, but many strains are not zoonotic.
Q.1 What causes COVID-19?
Q.2 Can animals be infected with COVID-19 virus? Are animals responsible for COVID-19 in
people?
Q.3 What precautionary measures should be taken when companion or other animals have close
contact with humans sick or suspected with COVID-19?
Q.4 What are the relationship of corona virus with other viruses
Q.5 How are the symptoms of this novel coronavirus different from those we associate with a typical
common cold and seasonal flu?
Subject:- Social – Science
Topic- Covid 19 And Humanity Recognize your cognitive biases. In its early stages, the Covid-19 crisis in Italy looked nothing like a crisis.
The initial state-of-emergency declarations were met by skepticism by both the public and many in policy circles — even though several scientists had been warning of the potential for a catastrophe for weeks.
Indeed, in late February some notable Italian politicians engaged in public handshaking in Milan to make the
point that the economy should not panic and stop because of the virus. (A week later, one of these politicians
was diagnosed with Covid-19.) Similar reactions were repeated across many other countries besides Italy and exemplify what behavioral scientists call confirmation bias — a tendency to seize upon information that
confirms our preferred position or initial hypothesis.
Threats such as pandemics that evolve in a nonlinear fashion (i.e., they start small but exponentially intensify) are especially tricky to confront because of the challenges of rapidly interpreting what is
happening in real time. The most effective time to take strong action is extremely early, when the threat
appears to be small — or even before there are any cases. But if the intervention actually works, it will
appear in retrospect as if the strong actions were an overreaction. This is a game many politicians don’t want to play.
The systematic inability to listen to experts highlights the trouble that leaders —and people in general —
have figuring out how to act in dire, highly complex situations where there’s no easy solution.
The desire to act causes leaders to rely on their gut feeling or the opinions of their inner circle. But in a time of uncertainty, it is essential to resist that temptation, and instead take the time to discover, organize, and
absorb the partial knowledge that is dispersed across different pockets of expertise.
