Clinical Reviews of COVID-19 for Otorhinolaryngologists

The novel SARS-CoV-2 virus that causes COVID-19 has emerged rapidly and the virus has caused a global pandemic since it was first diagnosed in December 2019. SARS-CoV-2 is the seventh virus associated with human transmission among corona viruses. Otorhinolaryngologists could be vulnerable to this viral transmission due to the high viral load in the nasal cavity and nasopharynx. Hence, it is essential to understand the novel COVID-19 from the perspective of otorhinolaryngologists. We provide literature reviews of previous human coronaviruses and the novel COVID-19 with clinical hallmarks, diagnostic approaches, and possible treatment options. Further study is necessary to elucidate viral features and standardize treatment protocols with curable anti-viral agents and vaccines..
