COVID-19 Novel Coronavirus

Dyspnea
Around 1 out of every 6 people who gets COVID-19 becomes seriously ill and develops difficulty breathing. Shortness of breath (dyspnea) can be described in many different ways according to your patient. A feeling of “heaviness” to breathe or the inability to “catch my breath” are two of them. Not only is there a physical component to dyspnea, the mental aspect of knowing you cannot breath only aggravates the situation.
