Summary

DescriptionSARS-CoV-2 without background.png	Italiano: Questa illustrazione, creata presso i Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC), rivela la morfologia ultrastrutturale esibita dai coronavirus. Notare le punte che adornano la superficie esterna del virus, che conferiscono l'aspetto di una corona che circonda il virione, se osservate al microscopio elettronico. Un nuovo coronavirus, denominato Coronavirus 2 della sindrome respiratoria acuta grave (SARS-CoV-2), è stato identificato come la causa di un'epidemia di malattia respiratoria rilevata per la prima volta a Wuhan, in Cina, nel 2019. La malattia causata da questo virus è stata denominata malattia da coronavirus 2019 (COVID-19). Español: Esta ilustración, creada en los Centros para el Control y la Prevención de Enfermedades (CDC), revela la morfología ultraestructural exhibida por los coronavirus. Tenga en cuenta los picos que adornan la superficie exterior del virus, que imparten el aspecto de una corona que rodea al virión, cuando se observa al microscopio electrónico. Un nuevo coronavirus, denominado coronavirus 2 del síndrome respiratorio agudo severo (SARS-CoV-2), fue identificado como la causa de un brote de enfermedad respiratoria detectado por primera vez en Wuhan, China en 2019. La enfermedad causada por este virus se ha denominado enfermedad por coronavirus 2019 (COVID-19). English: This illustration, created at the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC), reveals ultrastructural morphology exhibited by coronaviruses. Note the spikes that adorn the outer surface of the virus, which impart the look of a corona surrounding the virion, when viewed electron microscopically. A novel coronavirus, named Severe Acute Respiratory Syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2), was identified as the cause of an outbreak of respiratory illness first detected in Wuhan, China in 2019. The illness caused by this virus has been named coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19). Deutsch: Diese Abbildung, die in den Zentren für die Kontrolle und Prävention von Krankheiten (CDC) erstellt wurde, zeigt die ultrastrukturelle Morphologie von Coronaviren. Beachten Sie die Spitzen, die äußere Oberfläche des Virus schmücken und bei elektronenmikroskopischer Betrachtung das Aussehen einer das Virion umgebenden Korona vermitteln. Ein neuartiges Coronavirus namens schweres akutes respiratorisches Syndrom Coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) wurde als Ursache für einen Ausbruch einer Atemwegserkrankung identifiziert, die erstmals 2019 in Wuhan, China, entdeckt wurde. Die durch dieses Virus verursachte Krankheit wurde als Coronavirus-Krankheit bezeichnet 2019 (COVID-19). 中文：這張由疾病控制與預防中心（CDC）創作的插圖揭示了冠狀病毒的超微結構形態。請注意裝飾病毒外表面的尖峰，在電子顯微鏡下觀察時，這些尖峰賦予病毒粒子周圍的電暈外觀。一種名為嚴重急性呼吸系統綜合症冠狀病毒2（SARS-CoV-2）的新型冠狀病毒被確定為2019年在中國武漢首次發現的呼吸道疾病暴發的原因。由該病毒引起的疾病已被命名為2019冠狀病毒病（COVID-19）。
