Along with many other intensive steps NUML is equipping itself for Online Teaching. In this regard NUML deployed Learning Management System which is empowered with interactive classes. The ZOOM and other facilities are added in LMS for live classes. The ICT Department also took the responsibility and register all the teachers and students in LMS, also developed E-rooms for lectures. Moreover, the complete walkthrough LMS Manual is provided to all concerns, also trained entire faculty to use LMS and record offline lectures and share with students.
WHAT IS A CORONAVIRUS?
Coronavirus disease (COVID-19) is an infectious disease caused by a newly discovered coronavirus.
Most people infected with the COVID-19 virus will experience mild to moderate respiratory illness and recover without requiring special treatment. Older people, and those with underlying medical problems like cardiovascular disease, diabetes, chronic respiratory disease, and cancer are more likely to develop serious illness.
The best way to prevent and slow down transmission is be well informed about the COVID-19 virus, the disease it causes and how it spreads. Protect yourself and others from infection by washing your hands or using an alcohol based rub frequently and not touching your face.
The COVID-19 virus spreads primarily through droplets of saliva or discharge from the nose when an infected person coughs or sneezes, so it’s important that you also practice respiratory etiquette (for example, by coughing into a flexed elbow).
The COVID-19 virus affects different people in different ways. COVID-19 is a respiratory disease and most infected people will develop mild to moderate symptoms and recover without requiring special treatment. People who have underlying medical conditions and those over 60 years old have a higher risk of developing severe disease and death.
Common symptoms include:
- fever
- tiredness
- dry cough.
Other symptoms include:
- shortness of breath
- aches and pains
- sore throat
- and very few people will report diarrhoea, nausea or a runny nose.
People with mild symptoms who are otherwise healthy should self-isolate and contact their medical provider or a COVID-19 information line for advice on testing and referral.
People with fever, cough or difficulty breathing should call their doctor and seek medical attention.
To prevent infection and to slow transmission of COVID-19, do the following:
-
Do Not Share EatingStop having food around those who ask you for it.
-
Don’t Touch Your Face or NoseAvoid animals (alive or dead), animal markets, and products that come from animals (such as uncooked meat).
-
Avoid Contact with Sick PeopleAvoid close contact with anyone showing symptoms of respiratory illness.
-
Avoid Crowded Places (Social Distancing)As an individual, you can lower your risk of infection by reducing your rate of contact with other people.
-
Wash Your Hands For 20secWash hands often with soap and water for at least 20 seconds.
-
Wear a Mask if AvailableYou should continue to use the surgical mask in all public places until you are advised.
-
Cover Nose When SneezingCover your mouth and nose with a tissue or your sleeve (not your hands) when coughing or sneezing.
-
Seek Medical Care RegularlyRegular health checks can identify any early signs of health issues.
