The International Journal of Coronaviruses is an authoritative, peer-reviewed publication that covers all aspects of the coronavirus epidemic, including epidemiology, diagnosis, treatment, and prevention. The current global health crisis caused by the outbreak of COVID-19 has been a challenge to governments, healthcare systems, and individuals worldwide. COVID-19, caused by the novel coronavirus, has spread rapidly since its emergence in late 2019. It has caused widespread illness, death, and disruption to healthcare systems and economies around the globe. As an infectious respiratory illness, the virus can spread easily from person to person, making prevention through social distancing, masks, and vaccines critical measures to combat the outbreak. Research and communication in the scientific community have been pivotal in response to the pandemic. The International Journal of Coronaviruses serves as a platform for sharing the latest updates on the ongoing pandemic, as well as research on SARS-CoV-2, the virus responsible for COVID-19. Through collaboration and knowledge-sharing, the scientific community has been able to develop vaccines and treatments that continue to prevent further spread. The journal also coherently describes the emergence of new coronavirus strains, such as the Delta variant, and research aimed at understanding the mechanisms of viral adaptation and transmission. It covers research on the host-pathogen relationship, with the goal of developing therapies that will reduce the burden of illness for patients suffering from COVID-19. Overall, the International Journal of Coronaviruses plays a crucial role in disseminating knowledge and timely communication of scientific advances in combating this pandemic. In addition, the publication aims to inform researchers and practitioners working across a diverse range of fields in combating this global health crisis.
