Overview

Historical Perspective

  • The etiological agent is SARS-CoV-2, named for the similarity of its symptoms to those induced by the severe acute respiratory syndrome, causing coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19), is a virus identified as the cause of an outbreak of respiratory illness first detected in Wuhan, China.[1][2]
  • The growing number of patients however, suggest that human-to-human transmission is actively occurring.[3][4]
