Description

Deutsch: Diese Abbildung, die in den Zentren für die Kontrolle und Prävention von Krankheiten (CDC) erstellt wurde, zeigt die ultrastrukturelle Morphologie des neuartigen Coronavirus 2019 (2019-nCoV). Beachten Sie die Spitzen, die die äußere Oberfläche des Virus schmücken und bei elektronenmikroskopischer Betrachtung das Aussehen einer das Virion umgebenden Korona vermitteln. Dieses Virus wurde als Ursache für einen Ausbruch einer Atemwegserkrankung identifiziert, die erstmals in Wuhan, China, festgestellt wurde.

Note the spikes that adorn the outer surface of the virus, which impart the look of a corona surrounding the virion, when viewed electron microscopically. This virus was identified as the cause of an outbreak of respiratory illness first detected in Wuhan, China.
