Welcome to the "Novel Coronavirus 2019, an essential guide". You are holding a book that will soon turn into your friend in need. Remember: what you don't understand you can never conquer. This book is your first step to understanding The Novel Coronavirus 2019 in depth. We base everything here on hard facts and evidence. Our philosophical musings will end with this introduction. I hope you'd appreciate that in dealing with a life event as potentially catastrophic as nCoV-2 disease, we've all become a little glassy eyed, wouldn't you agree? The effects of SARS nCoV-2 will differ greatly from those of past pathogens, which struck populations far poorer than people today, and with less knowledge of things like viruses and bacteria. This time the toll should be on a different scale than that exacted by the Black Death or Spanish flu. The ravages of the past point to us how the global economy may change because of the coronavirus. The human costs of pandemics are dreadful, and so are the long-run economic effects that follow. A virus kills not just a person but attempts to shake our faith in the progress of humanity. It's an antithesis to civilization as we know it. Most of us in the current generation would have never faced the catastrophic effects of a global epidemic. Neither do we want to. None of us would want to lose a loved one before their time, none of us would want to shift from living a life of freedom to one of fear. Unfortunately, Novel Coronavirus 2019, causing what is now the 'Coronavirus Diseases 2019'or nCoV-2 disease, may find us witnessing a threat larger than the nuclear holocaust or more terrific than the Black Death that extinguished close to 200 million people from the world! However, despite everything, we plan to bring hope in this book. We want YOU, our readers, to think differently. We want you to rise and take this as an opportunity. While the world has faced pandemics, some recorded, some not, every successive wave has left humans more resilient in the face of imminent extinction. Every time it threatened us with mass extinction, humans have used their fiercest weapon - the ingenuity of their mind. We sought, and then we destroyed. Our scientists devoted their very lives so we could live a better one ahead. This book is a testament to what we have learned from the past, the facts in the present and what beholds us in the days and years to come. Every bit of evidence, scientific data and thoughts on this virus is an attempt to empower YOU. Understanding this virus, its implications, our responses and its eventual deterring is our common goal. To plan, to prepare, to be ready is what will make us more intelligent. Research on nCoV-2 disease keeps evolving. We have tried to keep as updated as possible. We hope you'd enjoy reading this book as much as we enjoyed writing it so far. If at all you feel this has added value to your understanding and tackling of the current situation, then please drop a line on our official ID - alfabetenter@gmail.com and let us know. Our very endeavor is to bring a smile to your face-be it one of understanding or one of confidence. And stronger we will be, in time to come. BE GOOD. DO GOOD. TRUST IN GOD. FOR GOD IS GREAT!
