SOBRE CORONAVÍRUS
Coronaviruses (CoV) are a large viral family, known since the mid-1960s, that cause respiratory infections in humans and animals. Generally, coronavirus infections cause mild to moderate respiratory illnesses, similar to a common cold. Most people become infected with common coronaviruses throughout their lives, with young children being more likely to become infected. Common coronaviruses that infect humans are alpha coronavirus 229E and NL63 and beta coronavirus OC43, HKU1.
Some coronaviruses can cause severe respiratory syndromes, such as the severe acute respiratory syndrome that was known by the acronym SARS of the syndrome in English "Severe Acute Respiratory Syndrome". SARS is caused by the SARS-associated coronavirus (SARS-CoV), being the first reports in China in 2002. SARS-CoV spread rapidly to more than twelve countries in North America, South America, Europe and Asia, infecting more of 8,000 people and causing around 800 deaths, before the global SARS epidemic was stopped in 2003. Since 2004, no case of SARS has been reported worldwide.
In 2012, another new coronavirus was isolated, distinct from the one that caused SARS at the beginning of the past decade. This new coronavirus was unknown as an agent of human disease until its identification, initially in Saudi Arabia and, later, in other countries in the Middle East, Europe and Africa. All cases identified outside the Arabian Peninsula had a history of travel or recent contact with travelers from countries in the Middle East - Saudi Arabia, Qatar, the United Arab Emirates and Jordan. Due to the location of the cases, the disease came to be designated as Middle East respiratory syndrome, whose acronym is MERS, from the English “Middle East Respiratory Syndrome” and the new virus named MERS-associated coronavirus (MERS-CoV).
