Most patients infected with the virus will have mild to severe respiratory disease and will recover without needing any special treatment. However, some people will get serious illnesses and need to visit a doctor. Older adults and those with underlying medical conditions, such as cardiovascular disease, diabetes, chronic respiratory disease, or cancer, are more prone to develop severe illness. COVID-19 can cause anyone to get very ill or die at any age. The emergence of the COVID-19 pandemic has caused a lot of problems in various fields, such as from health, socio-economy, education, even tourism. Keywords: Impact, Pandemic, COVID-19 1. Introduction Coronavirus disease (COVID-19) is a virus-borne infection caused by the SARS-CoV-2 virus [1]. Coronavirus is a virus that can cause disease in humans as well as animals. In humans, it causes infectious diseases of the respiratory tract, which can range from the flu to other severe diseases such as Middle East Respiratory Syndrome (MERS) and Severe Acute Respiratory Syndrome (SARS) [2]. Most patients infected with the virus will experience mild to severe respiratory illness and will recover without requiring special treatment. However, some people will get a serious illness and need to see a doctor. Older adults and those with underlying medical conditions such as cardiovascular disease, diabetes, chronic respiratory disease, or cancer are more susceptible to severe illness. COVID-19 can cause anyone to become very sick or die at any age [1]. Because coronavirus spreads by airborne transmission, investigating events that might suspend the virus in the air is critical. Coughing, sneezing, laughing, wet talking, etc. might spread the virus in the surrounding air from a potentially infected person's exhaled breath [3]. COVID-19 (Coronavirus) has had an impact on daily life and is affecting the global economy. This pandemic has affected thousands of individuals, who are either sick or dying because of the disease's spread [4]. All throughout the world, schools were shuttered to stop the virus's spread. In the first year of the epidemic, school closures had an impact on nearly half of the world's kids.
