2020 Archive: Infectious diseases faculty share expertise during coronavirus outbreak

Emory Division of Infectious Diseases faculty members are sharing their expertise with various media outlets as the coronavirus remains a top public health concern in the United States.

Coronaviruses are a group of viruses that can cause several symptoms including fever, coughing, shortness of breath and difficulty breathing. The majority of people experience mild symptoms, while others have severe illnesses including reports of the virus leading to death. Patients who are older and have pre-existing medical problems appear to be at the highest risk for complications. The virus was first detected in China and has since spread to other countries.
