    A meta-analysis from November 2020 estimated the basic reproduction number of the virus to be between 2.39 and 3.44. [21] This means each infection from the virus is expected to result in 2.39 to 3.44 new infections when no members of the community are immune and no preventive measures are taken.

  3. Double-stranded RNA viruses - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Double-stranded_RNA_viruses

    Double-stranded RNA viruses (dsRNA viruses) are a polyphyletic group of viruses that have double-stranded genomes made of ribonucleic acid.The double-stranded genome is used as a template by the viral RNA-dependent RNA polymerase (RdRp) to transcribe a positive-strand RNA functioning as messenger RNA (mRNA) for the host cell's ribosomes, which translate it into viral proteins.

  4. Variants of SARS-CoV-2 - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Variants_of_SARS-CoV-2

    Variants of severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 are viruses that, while similar to the original, have genetic changes that are of enough significance to lead virologists to label them separately. SARS-CoV-2 is the virus that causes coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19).

  5. Coronavirus - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Coronavirus

    The coronavirus RNA genome has a 5′ methylated cap and a 3′ polyadenylated tail, which allows it to act like a messenger RNA and be directly translated by the host cell's ribosomes. The host ribosomes translate the initial overlapping open reading frames ORF1a and ORF1b of the virus genome into two large overlapping polyproteins, pp1a and ...

  6. Positive-strand RNA virus - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Positive-strand_RNA_virus

    Positive-strand RNA virus genomes usually contain relatively few genes, usually between three and ten, including an RNA-dependent RNA polymerase. [4] Coronaviruses have the largest known RNA genomes, between 27 and 32 kilobases in length, and likely possess replication proofreading mechanisms in the form of an exoribonuclease within nonstructural protein nsp14.

  7. SARS-related coronavirus - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/SARS-related_coronavirus

    The SARS-related coronavirus is an enveloped, positive-sense, single-stranded RNA virus. Its genome is about 30 kb , which is one of the largest among RNA viruses. The virus has 14 open reading frames which overlap in some cases. [ 19 ]

  8. Double-stranded RNA - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Double-stranded_RNA

    Double-stranded RNA structure. Double-stranded RNA (dsRNA) is RNA with two complementary strands found in cells. It is similar to DNA but with the replacement of thymine by uracil and the adding of one oxygen atom. [1] Despite the structural similarities, much less is known about dsRNA. [2]

  9. COVID-19 testing - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/COVID-19_testing

    COVID-19 testing involves analyzing samples to assess the current or past presence of SARS-CoV-2, the virus that cases COVID-19 and is responsible for the COVID-19 pandemic. The two main types of tests detect either the presence of the virus or antibodies produced in response to infection.
