A 3 year old child can get Covid.

Covid-19 does not just infect adults and older kids as Covid-19 can and has infected younger kids and even 3 year olds and babies.

So make sure to do your best to protect your 3 year old or any other kids and babies from the Covid-19 virus.

The Covid-19 Virus originated from bats.

Experts say that the Covid-19 Virus also known as the SARS-CoV-2 originated in bats.

That’s also how the coronaviruses behind Middle East respiratory syndrome (MERS) and severe acute respiratory syndrome (SARS) got started.

Covid-19 virus was first detected in Wuhan City, Hubei Province, China.

The first infections were linked to a live animal market, but the virus is now spreading from person-to-person.

In December 12, 2019 A cluster of patients in Wuhan, Hubei Providence, China begin to experience shortness of breath and fever.

Coronaviruses are named for the crown-like spikes on their surface.

Human coronaviruses were first identified in the mid-1960s.

They are closely monitored by public health officials.

The first known infections from SARS‐CoV‐2 were discovered in Wuhan, China.

The original source of viral transmission to humans remains unclear, as does whether the virus became pathogenic before or after the spillover event.

COVID-19 is caused by a coronavirus called SARS-CoV-2.

Older adults and people who have severe underlying medical conditions like heart or lung disease or diabetes seem to be at higher risk for developing more serious complications from COVID-19 illness.
