People infected with COVID-19 would experience mild to moderate respiratory illness. The World Health Organization (WHO) declared it a pandemic on March 11, 2020. It spreads primarily through droplets of saliva or discharge from the nose when an infected person coughs or sneezes. There are common human coronaviruses; alpha(229E), beta(NL63), gamma(OC43), and delta(HKU1). Usually, those viruses would cause mild to moderate upper-respiratory tract illnesses, like the common cold.

There is a brief history of the coronavirus, which states that the first human coronavirus was identified in the 1960s. There are seven coronaviruses, which could cause disease in humans, among which four are endemic that cause mild to moderate diseases in humans. These viruses are found worldwide and are responsible for about 10-15% of common colds.

As of November 17, 2020, there have been 54,771,888 confirmed cases, including 1,324,249 deaths in the world, according to the WHO's COVID-19 dashboard.
