SARS and SARS-Cov-2 belong to the same family of virus, coronavirus, which invades the respiratory tract and causes atypical pneumonia. Patients develop breathing difficulties due to inflamed alveoli of the lungs. Atypical pneumonia, also known as walking pneumonia, differs from typical pneumonia as it is caused by viral agents or atypical bacteria that lack normal cell structure. Patients with atypical pneumonia experience milder symptoms and resistance to normal antibacterial medications (Cleveland Clinic, 2019). | SARS and SARS-Cov-2 belong to the same family of virus, coronavirus, which invades the respiratory tract and causes atypical pneumonia.
