Novel Coronavirus
Novel coronavirus (nCoV) is a provisional name given to coronaviruses of medical significance before a permanent name is decided upon. Although coronaviruses are endemic in humans and infections normally mild, such as the common cold (caused by human coronaviruses in ~15% of cases), cross-species transmission has produced some unusually virulent strains which can cause viral pneumonia and in serious cases even acute respiratory distress syndrome and death. Species The following viruses could initially be referred to as "novel coronavirus", before being formally named: All four viruses are part of the ''Betacoronavirus'' genus within the coronavirus family.
