    Snippet: SARS-CoV-2 is a single-stranded, positive sense RNA virus, having a diameter of 60-140 nm with a round or elliptic shape; however, it often exists in pleomorphic form. Its RNA genome contains 29891 nucleotides, encoding for 9860 amino acids and shares 99.9% sequence identity, suggesting a very recent host shift into humans [5, 6] . Like other CoVs, it is sensitive to ultraviolet rays and heat. Besides, these viruses can be effectively inactivated.....
    Document: SARS-CoV-2 is a single-stranded, positive sense RNA virus, having a diameter of 60-140 nm with a round or elliptic shape; however, it often exists in pleomorphic form. Its RNA genome contains 29891 nucleotides, encoding for 9860 amino acids and shares 99.9% sequence identity, suggesting a very recent host shift into humans [5, 6] . Like other CoVs, it is sensitive to ultraviolet rays and heat. Besides, these viruses can be effectively inactivated by lipid solvents including chloroform, ether (75%), ethanol, peroxyacetic acid and chlorine-containing disinfectant but not by chlorhexidine [5, 6] .
