The virus, identified as the causative agent for a cluster of pneumonia cases initially detected in Wuhan City, China, in late 2019, was isolated and its sequence made available on January 7 and 12, 2020, respectively [2]. Phylogenetic data implicate a zoonotic origin of the virus, which is closely related to two bat-derived severe acute respiratory syndrome (SARS)–like coronaviruses, but more distant from SARS-CoV and Middle East respiratory syndrome (MERS)-CoV [3]. The study of community transmission and family clusters of the disease, as well as the rapid spread of infection across the world, has soon provided key insights to support the existence of person-to-person transmission [4]. …
