    Snippet: In December 2019, a cluster of patients with pneumonia of unknown origin was encountered in Wuhan, China (1). The causative agent was determined to be a novel virus of the Coronaviridae family of RNA viruses and was claimed to be of zoonotic origin (1). Due to its close relationship with the SARS-CoV, this novel coronavirus was named SARS-CoV-2 (2).

    Document: In December 2019, a cluster of patients with pneumonia of unknown origin was encountered in Wuhan, China (1). The causative agent was determined to be a novel virus of the Coronaviridae family of RNA viruses and was claimed to be of zoonotic origin (1). Due to its close relationship with the SARS-CoV, this novel coronavirus was named SARS-CoV-2 (2). Since then, SARS-CoV-2 has caused a widespread outbreak of the disease now known as COVID- 19 and was declared to be a pandemic by WHO on March 11 2020 (3) . Human to human transmission occurs primarily through close-contact with the infected person, through fomites in the immediate surroundings of the infected person and via droplets of respiratory secretions (4, 5), although there is limited evidence pointing to a possibility of airborne and faeco-oral transmission as well (6, 7) . According to few case studies, transmission may also occur via viral shedding in "presymptomatic" individuals during the incubation period (8, 9) .
