Koch's postulates fulfilled for SARS virus [PDF]

Nature, 2003
Severe acute respiratory syndrome (SARS) has recently emerged as a new human disease, resulting globally in 435 deaths from 6,234 probable cases (as of 3 May 2003). Here we provide proof from experimental infection of cynomolgus macaques (Macaca fascicularis) that the newly discovered SARS-associated coronavirus (SCV) is the aetiological agent of this ...

Plausible models for propagation of the SARS virus

, 2003
Using daily infection data for Hong Kong we explore the validity of a variety of models of disease propagation when applied to the SARS epidemic. Surrogate data methods show that simple random models are insufficient and that the standard epidemic susceptible-infected-removed model does not fully account for the underlying variability in the observed ...

Influenza, respiratory syncytial virus and SARS

Medicine, 2005
Acute lower respiratory tract infections (LRTIs) are a major worldwide health problem, particularly in childhood, and are ranked first among the conditions contributing to the global burden of disease. About 30-50% of acute LRTIs are viral in origin; of these, influenza and respiratory syncytial virus (RSV) are associated with the greatest disease ...

SARS virus infection of cats and ferrets [PDF]

Nature, 2003
The reservoir of the coronavirus isolated from patients with severe acute respiratory syndrome (SARS)(1,2) is still unknown, but is suspected to have been a wild animal species. Here we show that ferrets (Mustela furo) and domestic cats (Felis domesticus) are susceptible to infection by SARS coronavirus (SCV) and that they can efficiently transmit the ...

The SARS-CoV-2 virus [PDF]

, 2021
Viruses are non-living particles containing genetic information in the form of DNA or RNA. They are fascinating because they are not considered a form of life even though they evolve in the same way all living organisms do. Viruses are so-called obligate pathogens because they cannot multiply unless they infect and hijack the cellular machinery in ...

Influenza Virus and SARS-CoV-2 Vaccines [PDF]

The Journal of Immunology, 2021
Abstract Seasonal influenza and the current COVID-19 pandemic represent looming global health challenges. Efficacious and safe vaccines remain the frontline tools for mitigating both influenza virus and severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2)–induced diseases.
