Overview

Coronaviruses are a large family of enveloped RNA viruses that infect humans and animals and can cause respiratory and other illnesses ranging from mild colds to severe disease. The novel coronavirus SARS-CoV-2 is responsible for COVID-19, the illness behind the global pandemic that profoundly affected health systems, communities, and economies. The virus spreads mainly through respiratory droplets and close contact, and possibly contaminated surfaces, and infection can produce symptoms such as fever, cough, and difficulty breathing, with outcomes varying from asymptomatic infection to critical illness. Research on coronaviruses spans epidemiology and outbreak modelling, transmission and prevention, immune responses and convalescent-plasma approaches, treatment strategies, and the wider social and toxicological dimensions of the pandemic. Vulnerable groups, including older adults and people with underlying conditions, face higher risk, and public-health measures such as mask-wearing and behavioural change have been central to control efforts. The journal publishes peer-reviewed studies relevant to these themes, including the use of human development indices to monitor the pandemic, adaptive passive-immunity strategies for critical cases, the origin and treatment of SARS-CoV-2, prevention through cultural practices and mask-wearing, neutralising antibodies in convalescent plasma, emerging challenges in toxicology, COVID-19 stigma, and mathematical models of outbreak risk.
