This article aims at keeping an up-to-date list of Coronavirus strains and subspecies successfully isolated and cultured in laboratory, a task which is often challenging. When relevant it shall include a few synthetic chimera as well as some strains that were only propagated in laboratory animals.
SARS-CoV-2 is the virus that causes coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19). Some have been stated, to be of particular importance due to their potential for increased transmissibility, [1] increased virulence, or reduced effectiveness of vaccines against them. [2] [3] These variants contribute to the continuation of the COVID-19 pandemic.
The COVID-19 pandemic was the third leading cause of death globally in 2020 and the second in 2021, according to a recent World Health Organization report.The almost 13 million lives lost during ...
Only recently have strains of SARS-related coronavirus been observed to have evolved into having been able to make the cross-species jump from bats to humans, as in the case of the strains SARS-CoV-1 and SARS-CoV-2. [18] [8] Both of these strains descended from a single ancestor but made the cross-species jump into humans separately. SARS-CoV-2 ...
The heavily mutated COVID-19 variant is now the fastest-growing strain in the US. Experts discuss JN.1 symptoms, transmission, vaccines and more. JN.1 accounts for over 90% of US COVID cases: Know ...
New COVID-19 variants known as “FLiRT,” KP.2, KP.3, and KP.1.1, are spreading fast. Doctors explain symptoms, prevention, and how the vaccines stack up.
The principal for obstetric management of COVID-19 include rapid detection, isolation, and testing, profound preventive measures, regular monitoring of fetus as well as of uterine contractions, peculiar case-to-case delivery planning based on severity of symptoms, and appropriate post-natal measures for preventing infection.
SARS‑CoV‑2 is a strain of the species Betacoronavirus pandemicum (SARSr-CoV), as is SARS-CoV-1, the virus that caused the 2002–2004 SARS outbreak. [2] [17] There are animal-borne coronavirus strains
