CORONAVIRUS PARTICLES, ILLUSTRATION
Coronavirus particles, illustration. Different strains of coronavirus are responsible for diseases such as the common cold, gastroenteritis and SARS (severe acute respiratory syndrome). A new coronavirus (2019-CoV) emerged in Wuhan, China, in December 2019. The virus causes pneumonia and can be fatal in some cases. The coronaviruses take their name from their crown (corona) of surface proteins, which are used to attach and penetrate their host cells. Once inside the cells, the particles use the cells' machinery to make more copies of the virus. (KEYSTONE/SCIENCE PHOTO LIBRARY/MAURIZIO DE ANGELIS/SCIENCE PHOTO LIBRARY)
