Noninvasive Detection of Respiratory Disorder Due to COVID-19 at the Early Stages in Saudi Arabia
The Kingdom of Saudi Arabia has suffered from COVID-19 disease as part of the global pandemic due to severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2. The economy of Saudi Arabia also suffered a heavy impact. Several measures were taken to help mitigate its impact and stimulate the economy. In this c...
