The fast-growing outbreak of the 2019 novel coronavirus (2019-nCoV), which originated from Wuhan locating in central China at the end of 2019, spread to multiple cities in merely a month. Although the mortality of this disease was lower than that of SARS, the incredible contagiousness was much higher than SRAS-CoV. Because of the tremendous clout of 2019-nCoV, it is essential to hold more details about it and monitor its future evolution. This mini review consequently summarizes the key elements of epidemiology features, providing updated relevant findings and novel insights related to 2019-nCoV.
2019 年新型冠状病毒(2019-nCoV)疫情迅速蔓延,该病毒于 2019 年底起源于中国中部的武汉,并在短短一个月内传播到多个城市。虽然这种疾病的死亡率低于 SARS,但传染性却比 SARS-CoV 高得多。由于 2019-nCoV 的巨大影响力,了解其更多细节并监测其未来的演变至关重要。因此,这篇综述总结了流行病学特征的关键要素,提供了与 2019-nCoV 相关的最新相关发现和新的见解。
