COVID-19 is an infectious disease caused by a coronavirus that mainly affects the airways, although it can involve other organs. Its severity varies widely from one person to another, from mild cases to forms that require hospital care.

Common symptoms:

• Fever, cough, and sore throat.
• Tiredness, muscle aches, and headache.
• Loss of smell or taste and, in some cases, difficulty breathing.

When to seek care? If you have difficulty breathing, chest pressure, or symptoms that are getting worse, a prompt evaluation is advisable.

Which specialist treats it? The general practitioner is usually the first point of contact, with support from the internist or the pulmonologist in more complex cases. If you have symptoms or questions about your condition, it's advisable to consult a professional who can assess your situation on an individual basis.
