Eradicating coronavirus, conceptual illustration

Description: Eradicating coronavirus, conceptual illustration. A virus-like particle (VLP, yellow) vaccine leading to the destruction of a coronavirus particle (red). Different strains of coronavirus are responsible for diseases such as the common cold, gastroenteritis and SARS (severe acute respiratory syndrome). The new coronavirus SARS-CoV-2 (previously 2019-CoV) emerged in Wuhan, China, in December 2019. The virus causes a mild respiratory illness (Covid-19) that can develop into pneumonia and be fatal in some cases. The coronaviruses take their name from their crown (corona) of surface spike proteins (large protrusions), which are used to attach and penetrate their host cells.
