Description
Summary:The Coronavirus Disease 2019 (COVID-19) pandemic has posed enormous health risks worldwide. In the 21st century, a novel virus which is called SARS-CoV-2; was the main cause for the COVID-19 pandemic outbreak. This virus is transmitted from person to person through direct and indirect transmission. Some infected people develop serious symptoms, but others do not show any symptoms. Infected people with no visible symptoms could also transmit the viruses. Literature studies about the COVID-19 pandemic (starts from Dec 2020 until June 2021) were conducted through PubMed, Embase, Medline and Google Scholar. In this study, we explored the COVID-19's impact on non-communicable diseases and young children. Scientists are currently testing several drugs to eradicate the COVID-19 outbreak. Pfizer, AstraZeneca, Sinovac and Moderna, vaccine doses administrated successfully throughout the world. Government agencies also implemented certain rules and regulations to protect their citizens from coronavirus. Moreover, World Health Organization (WHO) also helps by providing many valuable information and precautions to countries. Hence, this study might provide some information on how to deal with the virus to curb the rapid spread of the SARS-CoV-2. Keywords: COVID-19, Non-communicable diseases, SARS-CoV-2, Young children
