COVID-19 (SARS-CoV-2) is a pandemic declared by the World Health Organisation (WHO) on 11 March 2020. The case definition is updated regularly following several studies reviewing clinical characteristics. The clinical spectrum has just started unfolding itself for this novel virus. It started with respiratory symptoms (fever and at least one sign/symptom of cough, shortness of breath) to which was subsequently added diarrhoea, rash, anosmia, ageusia, mental confusion, stroke, seizures, acute kidney damage, liver damage, COVID toes, multisystem inflammatory syndrome in children (MIS-C) and many more.
