The COVID-19 pandemic has affected the world in different ways. Not only are people's lives and livelihoods affected, but the virus has also affected people's lifestyles. In the research sector, there have been significant changes, and new research is coming very strongly in the related fields of virology and epidemiology. Similar trends were observed after the Severe Acute Respiratory Syndrome Coronavirus (SARS-CoV) and Middle East Respiratory Syndrome Coronavirus (MERS-CoV) episodes of 2003 and 2012, respectively. Analyzing 20 years of published scientific papers, this article points out the highlights of coronavirus-related research. Significant progress is observed in the past research related to virology, epidemiology, infectious diseases among others. However, in research linked to public health, its governance, technology, and risk communication there seem to be gap areas. Although the World Health Organization (WHO) global research road map has identified social science-related research as a priority area, more focus needs to be given in the upcoming days for multi, cross and trans-disciplinary research related to public health and disaster risk reduction.
新冠疫情以不同的方式影响了全世界。不仅人们的生活和生计受到了影响，而且病毒还影响了人们的生活方式。在研究领域，发生了重大变化，病毒学和流行病学等相关领域的新研究非常强劲。2003 年和 2012 年严重急性呼吸综合征冠状病毒（SARS-CoV）和中东呼吸综合征冠状病毒（MERS-CoV）爆发后，也观察到了类似的趋势。本文通过分析 20 年来发表的科学论文，指出了与冠状病毒相关研究的重点。在过去与病毒学、流行病学、传染病等相关的研究中取得了重大进展。然而，在与公共卫生相关的研究、其治理、技术和风险沟通方面，似乎存在空白领域。尽管世界卫生组织（WHO）全球研究路线图已将社会科学相关研究确定为优先领域，但在未来几天，需要更加关注与公共卫生和减少灾害风险相关的多学科、跨学科和交叉学科研究。
