ABSTRACT
Since its start spreed "Severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2" was discovered in Wuhan, China.that is chargeable COVID-19, a pandemic virus, has end up a widespread fitness hassle everywhere in the global Over 2.1 million people have been affected. We analyze serum concentration of CD4 marker and CD8 marker depend in COVID-19 sufferers, and to make clear a relationship between these variables and disorder Progression and severity For those purpose, (158) sufferers with COVID-19 (showed with the aid of using polymerase chain reaction) and (22) seemingly wholesome human beings have been protected withinside the present day examine and taken into consideration as a manipulate group. All examine population (sufferers and manipulate) have been subjected to the assessment of serum awareness of CD4 marker and CD8 marker. COVID-19 sufferers displayed a huge elevation withinside the tiers of parameters protected on this examine while in comparison with wholesome controls. We additionally observed that concentration of CD4 and CD8 high in sever (CD4 5.68 +/- 0.16-CD8 961.74149.48 ) than critical (CD4 4.7610.14- CD8 880.19 +/- 52.03 )and moderate (CD43.83 +/- 0.09 - CD8 647.52 +/- 44.54) groups with high significant different (P <= 0.01(.
ABSTRACT
After the zoonotic CoV epidemics of SARS (2003) and MERS (2012), SARS-COV-2 was appeared as the human positive sense RNA coronavirus's third and fatal strain that infect birds and a variety of animals and human. It is one of Coronaviridae family. It cause serious respiratory illness. A total number of 68 samples were involved in the current study, the suspected patients infection were confirmed by obtaining nasopharyngeal swab and subjected to PCR test in the molecular biological laboratories accredited by the Iraqi Ministry of Health. The samples were divided into two interval groups: the first period were collected during the first fourteenth day after infection and the second group interval after 15th to 28th of infection. NFAT concentration was tested by ELISA. The study results showed that the concentration of NFAT is increased in the first fourteen days then its concentration decreased at the second fourteen days with significance of (p≤0.03). © 2022 International Journal of Health Sciences.All rights reserved.
ABSTRACT
COVID-19 is the virus that engulfed the globe in the year 2020 that caused many deaths and disrupted countries' economies. In this report, we reviewed all aspects to explain the subjects, where we performed a systematic and thorough report of the Covid-19 outbreak, its medical conditions, its sources, diagnosis and prevention mechanisms and available methods of treatment. This also discussed the epidemiological situation in Iraq and the distribution of the province of Anbar as a sample for the report. Overall, from all of this analysis we conclude that epidemiology, virology, COVID-19 clinical is still enigmatic and that (viral) epidemics occasionally kill humanity, so we need a broader understanding of viruses.

ABSTRACT
The Coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) pandemic is caused by the transmission of severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2), which was first identified in December 2019 in Wuhan, China. The outbreak was declared as a Public Health Emergency of International Concern in January 2020 and a pandemic in March 2020. In this study, a complete statistical analysis for SARS-CoV-2 pandemic in entire Iraq, as well as for each governorate separately, is performed for the first time. The study covers a period that starts from the beginning of the pandemic, in the 24th of February 2020, until the 16th of July 2020. It was clear that, although the average number of the reported infection cases was low during February and March, the average infection rate (R0) was >1 (1.3- 2.1), indicating a high spreading rate. During April, when there was a complete lockdown, there was a slight decrease in the RO when the lockdown was lifted, the RO and the number of new cases started to increase rapidly until the 16th of July, when the average number of new cases for every 6 days reached 2281. The cumulative average number of new cases for every six days since the beginning of the pandemic in Iraq on 16 July was 598.4 ±862.4 (Mean± SD). The higher standard deviation than mean value (SD >mean) for most of the analyzes indicates that the official statistics are not reliable. This may be due to the need to conduct further studies as well as the presence of several cases that were not officially reported. In addition, the overall six-day average RO for entire Iraq was 1.4±0.5, with unstable values after the start of the pandemic and absence of monitoring at any time. On the other hand, this study reflects the variations in average RO, average new cases, average recovery rates, average death rates for every 6 days between the Iraqi provinces. Bagdad reported the highest average number of new cases;Babil and Salah aldin reported the highest RO values (2.8± 7.6, 2.5±7.7, respectively). Erbil and Kurkuk reported the highest average recovery rates (372.3± 1340.8, 158±433%, respectively). Babil and Dhiqar reported the highest average death rates (12.2± 63.3, 10.0± 25.8%, respectively), although Duhock did not record any deaths at the time of the study. The data require the attention of the Ministry of Health and Environment to fill in performance holes, as demonstrated by an out-of-control pandemic in Iraq. © 2021 University of Baghdad-College of Science.
