The severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) causes a respiratory illness called 2019 coronavirus disease (COVID-19) leading to a pandemic. Since there is currently no vaccine or designated specific drug treatment for COVID-19, the government can take necessary public health prevention and control measures to prevent the spread of the epidemic [1-3].
