Resumo

A partir do primeiro caso de COVID-19 no Brasil, o país se tornou o terceiro no mundo em números de casos e de óbitos. Apesar das medidas implantadas pelo governo, o número de infectados e de óbitos por COVID-19 continua aumentando e o país enfrenta vários outros problemas que inclui aspectos sociais e políticos, dificultando as medidas de contenção da pandemia. O presente estudo visou abordar as características gerais do SARS-Cov-2, bem como apontar os principais aspectos socioepidemiológico no Brasil, e tratamento da COVID 19. Foi realizada uma revisão de literatura para busca de artigos em Bases de dados PubMed, Scielo e Google Scholar até 06 de outubro de 2020. Os pacientes com COVID-19 podem ser assintomáticos, porém entre os sintomáticos a gravidade da doença está relacionada à idade e a condições médicas pré-existentes. Os pulmões são os órgãos mais afetados pelo vírus e por isso as manifestações respiratórias como tosse, falta de ar, produção de escarro, dor de garganta e congestão nasal são os sintomas mais associados à COVID-19 A transmissão do SARS-COV-2 entre os humanos ocorre principalmente por meio de gotículas respiratórias, mas também podem ocorrer por meio do contato com superfícies contaminadas. Testes de vacinas foram realizados aprovados pela Organização Mundial da Saúde (OMS). O Brasil se destaca em segunda posição mundial, com cinco vacinas aprovadas, Pfizer-BioNTech, Oxford-AstraZeneca, /CoronaVac (Sinovac), Janssen/Covishield.
