The new coronavirus first started spreading between humans in Wuhan, China sometime in November of last year and has been officially labeled “SARS-CoV-2.” You may also have seen its provisional name from earlier this year thrown about: “2019-nCoV.” Researchers, scientists, some public health officials, and some test manufacturers regularly use these two variations of the moniker for the virus.
Of course, SARS-CoV-2 doesn’t exactly roll off the tongue. Instead, “COVID-19” or just “Covid” has caught on as the name of the invisible bug that’s stalking the globe right now. Remember that strictly speaking, “COVID-19” is the name of the disease that the SARS-CoV-2 virus can cause in people.
The difference between the two is like the difference between HIV and AIDS. HIV and SARS-CoV-2 are both viruses. When these viruses infect people and their immune systems or medicine are unable to stop the infection early enough, the viruses make people sick. In the case of HIV, we call that sickness “AIDS.” In the case of the SARS-CoV-2 virus, we call the sickness “COVID-19”.
When we talk about “testing” right now, we mean testing for signs that the SARS-CoV-2 virus has infected someone. As you’ll see below, however, some newer tests instead look for signs that someone has in the past been infected with SARS-CoV-2.
Understand that we don’t test for the conditions of COVID-19. If you have severe COVID-19, you’ll know because the symptoms are hard to miss: fever, pains, severe difficulty breathing, and so on. Milder cases of COVID-19 are easier to mistake for a common cold or a mild flu. In any event, the point of testing is to help limit the spread of the virus, so we test for the virus. - D.R.

I don't know if I've ever had covid because, fortunately, I didn't feel any symptoms according to this virus. Still, because of the paranoia that persisted for a long time in me, I took some express tests from https://www.confirmbiosciences.com/c...irus-test-kit/ to check myself and to become calmer. That's something that not only I did, but also many acquaintances of mine. In general, the global atmosphere a year ago was fierce. Everyone was afraid to go outside and intersect with each other. I am glad that many items and medicines have been created now, which help the world overcome this difficulty.
