Overview

Coronaviruses are a family of viruses that cause respiratory diseases, ranging from the common cold to more severe conditions such as Middle East Respiratory Syndrome (MERS) and Severe Acute Respiratory Syndrome (SARS). The recent outbreak of the novel coronavirus, officially named SARS-CoV-2 but commonly referred to as COVID-19, has become a global pandemic with significant impact on public health and the world economy. The International Journal of Coronaviruses provides researchers, healthcare professionals and the general public with up-to-date scientific knowledge and advances in the understanding of coronaviruses and their associated diseases. The journal focuses on the investigation of the epidemiology, pathogenesis, diagnosis, treatment and prevention of coronaviruses. It publishes original research articles, timely reviews, commentaries and case reports, covering all aspects of coronaviruses and their associated diseases. The journal aims to be a platform for international collaboration and exchange of ideas, fostering the understanding of the global impact of coronaviruses. In addition to COVID-19, the journal covers other coronaviruses such as SARS, MERS, and animal coronaviruses that pose a threat of zoonotic transmission. The journal encourages the submission of studies that explore the interactions between the virus and the host immune system, investigate the development of vaccines and therapeutic agents, and analyze the social and economic impacts of epidemics caused by coronaviruses. Through the International Journal of Coronaviruses, researchers and healthcare professionals can access the most current and reliable information on coronaviruses, supporting the development of effective strategies to combat the global spread of these pathogens.
