Answer:
Can you briefly explain what this novel coronavirus is?
Coronaviruses are a large family of viruses. They’re pretty common in people, and they usually cause just the common cold. They’re also found in many different species of animals. Very rarely, animal coronaviruses can infect and spread between people. Examples of animal coronaviruses that infect humans include: Middle East respiratory syndrome coronavirus (MERS-CoV), severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus (SARS-CoV) and the one we’re dealing with now, called SARS coronavirus-2 (SARS-CoV-2).
What are the origins of SARS-CoV-2?
There’s irrefutable evidence that SARS-CoV-2 came from a natural source. Coronaviruses are common in humans and animals. They cause cross-species infections by jumping from one host to another.
What do we know about how SARS-CoV-2 is spread and why it's spreading so quickly?
SARS-CoV-2 is a respiratory virus; the primary way it’s transmitted is human-to-human. It spreads very easily from person to person, and that’s why it’s spreading so quickly. When an infected person talks, coughs, sneezes or simply breathes out, they release respiratory droplets into the environment. These droplets are laced with viral particles that can move on to infect others. There has been some evidence of airborne and surface transfer of SARS-CoV-2. In some cases, viral RNA has been found in the air and on surfaces hours to days after contact with infected individuals. However, that RNA is not always infectious.
What are the incubation period and symptoms of COVID-19?
The incubation period (amount of time between exposure to the virus and development of symptoms of COVID-19) ranges from 1-14 days. It is most commonly 5-6 days, and in some rare cases has been reported to be longer than 14 days.
