Abstract

Viruses are non-living organisms that cause many problems for human societies annually. The outbreak of some dangerous viruses causing acute pneumonia has been the leading cause of death in the world. The epidemiological findings showed that the virus is developing different and dangerous species by creating new mutations, which makes it difficult to treat. The diagnosis and treatment of corona virus disease (COVID-19) has been one of the most important topics in the scientific community for the past 2 years. There are several diagnostic methods available for the detection of COVID-19 that are highly accurate and require less time. The use of some therapies such as with basic therapy has shown high therapeutic effectiveness, but the therapeutic side effects such as decreased glomerular filtration rate, decreased lymphocyte count, respiratory failure, and increased blood creatinine levels in most treatments have been observed. The COVID-19 infection and the associated deaths are still very worrying, therefore, rapid diagnosis and timely management of this deadly infection and the necessary measures for eradicating COVID-19 are important.
