ABSTRACT

ABSTRACT To assist nurses caring for hospitalized adults with coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19), the authors synthesize evidence-based information on the disease, providing background on the epidemiology and history of severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2, the causative virus. They also discuss the risks for severe effects of the illness, the multiple signs and symptoms hospitalized adults with COVID-19 may manifest, and the precautions hospitals should take to keep health care providers and patients safe during the course of this pandemic.
