$RXMD What to Know: According to the World Health Organization (“WHO”), Coronaviruses (CoV) are “a large family of viruses that cause illness ranging from the common cold to more severe diseases such as Middle East Respiratory Syndrome (MERS-CoV) and Severe Acute Respiratory Syndrome (SARS-CoV).”
On December 31, 2019, the WHO became aware of new strain – a “novel coronavirus (nCoV)” – not previously identified in humans that first appeared in the form of pneumonia in Wuhan City, Hubei Province of China. It appears as though this marks the emergence of a new infectious disease borne of a non-human-to-human virus in this region that mutated into a state allowing for human-to-human infectious transmission.
This disease has spread rapidly. Many questions still remain, including whether or not the disease is fully contagious in the pre-symptomatic incubation period. Chinese authorities and authorities in many countries are already taking rapid action to slow the spread of the disease, and biomedical facilities around the world are working hard to create a viable vaccine, with some early-stage candidate compositions already beginning animal testing.
