Background Information and Discussion Questions:
What is COVID-19?
Answer: COVID-19 is a Coronavirus. Coronaviruses are a large family of viruses that are common in people and many different species of animals, including camels, cattle, cats, and bats. Rarely, animal coronaviruses can infect people and then spread between people.mThree of the most recent versions of Coronaviruses have their origins in bats. The occurrences of the virus from U.S. patients are similar to the one that China initially posted, suggesting a likely single, recent emergence of from an animal reservoir. Early on, many of the patients who were part of an outbreak in Wuhan, Hubei Province, China had some link to a large seafood and live animal market, suggesting animal-to-person spread. Later, a growing number of patients reportedly did not have exposure to animal markets, indicating person-to-person spread. Person-to-person spread was subsequently reported outside Hubei and in countries outside China, including in the United States.
