Review ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractCOVID-19: A Review of Current Evidence on Phylogenetics and EtiopathogenesisRafiq Shajahan, Naganathan K. PillaiCOVID-19 represents the latest pandemic caused by the SARS-CoV-2 coronavirus. Coronaviruses are RNA viruses that cause a largely viral mediated immune-related syndrome similar to the SARS epidemic. Following metagenomic sequencing, SARS-CoV-2 closely resembles SARS-CoV (79% similarity) and MERS-CoV virus (50% similarity). Despite this, clinical observations have found varying degrees of infectivity and pathogenesis amongst these viruses. Phylogenetic origins of SARS-CoV-2 … …American Journal of Infectious Diseases, Vol. 17, Issue 1 · 2 Apr 2021 · 6,764 accessesView PDFCite
