Sometimes transmission by airborne droplets is possible. The immune system when it enters the body of the virus reacts to it by producing specific antibodies that block viral particles. However, the body itself is often unable to fully cope with the impact of the virus. Therefore, it is necessary to resort to the use of special medications.
