Preface

Background Of Study

Manufacturing companies are those that engage in the metamorphosis of goods, accoutrements or substances into new products. The transformational process can be physical, chemical or mechanical. Manufacturers frequently have shops, manufactories or manufactories that produce goods for public consumption.

These contagions were firstly transmitted from creatures to people. SARS, for case, was transmitted from civet pussycats to humans while MERS moved to humans from a type of camel. Several known coronaviruses are circulating in creatures that haven’t yet infected humans. still, the confirmed cases of COVID- 19 in the country between February 27 and March 17( the first 30 days) were imported by returning trippers .
