Extract
The outbreak of the 2019 new coronavirus pneumonia has caught worldwide attention. Since December 2019, several pneumonia cases of unknown origin have been found in hospitals in Wuhan, Hubei Province, China. The Chinese epidemic prevention authorities have quickly organised laboratories to conduct pathogen tests on alveolar lavage fluid, throat swabs, blood and other samples by methods of virus isolation, nucleic acid testing and genome sequencing, among others. On 7 January 2020, a novel coronavirus, previously undetected in humans, was isolated and its full genome sequence was decoded [1]. On 12 January 2020, the World Health Organization (WHO) officially named this new coronavirus causing the outbreak of pneumonia in Wuhan the “2019 new coronavirus (SARS-CoV-2).”
