How the coronavirus outbreak from a Wuhan live animal market turned into a human epidemic. FMTNews coronavirus
An ongoing outbreak of coronavirus in central China has killed over 100 citizens.
Viruses are organic parasites that infect both plants and animals alike. To spread their reach, they have to undergo three stages: contact with a potential host, infection and replication and spread to other hosts. If the virus hides from or resists the immune system, there will be enough time for it to infect even more cells.
The human immune system is thankfully capable of busting new viruses, but the virus still remains dangerous as it’s still capable of spreading from one species to another.
