This infectious disease has been causing universal awareness, anxiety and distress, all of which according to WHO are natural psychological responses to the randomly changing condition. People who are affected by COVID-19 have not done anything wrong, and they deserve our support, compassion and kindness. Protect yourself and be supportive of others. Assisting others in their time of need can benefit the helper as well as the person receiving the support. COVID-19 has affected, and is likely to affect, people from many countries and in many geographical locations. Do not attach a label of COVID-19 to any ethnicity or nationality. Be empathetic to all those who are affected, in and from any country.","PeriodicalId":417882,"journal":{"name":"IDC International Journal","volume":"1 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2021-01-10","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"126006334","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

In young children the number of alveoli within the respiratory tract is also lesser and shorter and organisms \u0000may move quickly down the respiratory tract triggering more extensive involvement. Postural drainage and \u0000percussion are usually taught to family members so that the therapy may be continued at home when needed in \u0000cases of chronic disease. Since this highly labour-intensive activity requires the daily intervention of a trained \u0000caregiver, it may lead to poor compliance with the recommended treatment plan. The air-pulse generator rapidly \u0000inflates and deflates the vest, compressing and releasing the chest wall up to 20 times per second. The vibratory \u0000forces of these devices are thought to lower mucus viscosity. High-frequency airway clearance (HFCWC) assist devices \u0000generate either positive or negative trans-respiratory pressure excursions. The typical treatment lasts 20-30 minutes, \u0000and consists of short periods of compression at different frequencies, separated by coughing.

It may be repeated activation of this system, failure to \u0000return to resting levels following stressful events, failure to habituate to repeated stressors of the same type, or \u0000some combination that is responsible for the development of hypertension.
