According to The CDC, people infected have ranged from having little or no symptoms to others who have become severely ill. Coronavirus COVID-19 symptoms can include:

- Shortness of breath
The CDC states, "The following symptoms may appear 2-14 days after exposure (based on what has been seen previously as the incubation period of MERS-CoV viruses.)"

- Wash hands with soap and water for at least 20 seconds or use an alcohol-based hand sanitizer with at least 60 percent alcohol if soap and water are not accessible
- Avoid touching eyes, nose and mouth with unwashed hands
- Minimize or avoid exposure to sick people
- Stay home if you are sick
