Coronavirus: You Need To Know Its Origin, Symptoms & Cases

Image
CORONAVIRUS ITSELF Coronaviruses are a group of viruses that cause diseases in mammals and birds.  ln humans, coronaviruses cause respiratory tract infections that are typically mild, such as the common cold, though rarer forms such as SARS, MERS and COVID-19 can be lethal.  These viruses were originally transmitted between animals and people. SARS, for instance, was transmitted from civet cats to humans while MERS moved to humans from a type of camel. The genome size of coronaviruses ranges from approximately 27 to 34 kilobases, the largest  known RNA viruses. Coronavirus genomes encode a protein called RNA-dependent RNA polymerase (RdRp), which allows the viral genome to be transcribed into new RNA copies using the host cell's machinery. The RdRp is the first protein to be made. Once the gene encoding the RdRp is translated, translation is stopped by a stop codon.  This is known as a nested transcript.  When the mRNA transcript only encodes on...

As one of the Sacraments of the church, what does Marriage really entails or implies? Do you really know what the Sacrament of Matrimony(Marriage) requires or demands of you? Sacrament of marriage is very central to the mission and life of the church. Understanding the sacrament of marriage and preparing adequately for it therefore is a necessary condition for meaningfully entering into the sacrament. The rites of marriage celebrate our understanding of the nature of the marriage covenant between a man and woman. It clearly expresses a level of commitment to be faithful to one another all through life. Marriage implies a commitment to live with another person in such a way that he or she decides that the first thing on the agenda is the life, happiness, and holiness of the other person. The good of the other person takes precedence even over the desires and dreams they have for themselves as individuals. And when the other makes the same decision, together the two embark on...

Are You For Divorce? You Need To Consider These

First off, I will like anyone seeking for divorce to read the following bible quotation:  Luke 16:18, Mark 10:2-12, 1 Corinthians 7:39, Romans 7:2-3, Malachi 2:16 & Matthew 5:32.   To begin with, we have to see what Divorce actually mean. According to Wikipedia ,  Divorce , also known as  dissolution of marriage , is the process of terminating a  marriage  or marital union.  Divorce usually entails the canceling or reorganizing of the legal duties and responsibilities of marriage, thus dissolving the  bonds of matrimony  between a married couple under the rule of law of the particular country or state. The rate at which newly married couples divorce in recent times is scary, thus there is urgent need to stop this ugly trend, for the future of our homes and society at large; if homes are destroyed, definitely the society in one way or the other will receive the heat(be in trouble). Just take a look at it! As we all kno...

How well or healthy is your marriage? Is your Marriage still sacred(holy) or a road side marriage(marriage wih Jesus Christ absent) right now? The institution of Marriage is the oldest in human society, and also one of the most profoundly honoured institutions. Developed since time immemorial, rites of marriage ceremony occupy a sacred or hallowed place in every culture and in every religion. In biblical faith traditional(as it is recorded in the opening chapter of the Book of Genesis), the very first blessing bestowed by God on humanity was on the married couple: "God blessed them, saying to them, 'Be fruitful, multiply, fill the earth'"(Gen.1:28). In Christian tradition, this original blessing of God was further enhanced and deepened by Jesus during the wedding feast at Cana in Galilee: " This was the first of the signs given by Jesus; it was given at Cana in Galilee. He let His glory to be seen and his disciples believed in Him"(Jn 2:11). Christi...
