Abstract

This presentation will examine the basics of the SARS CoV2 virus, including basic structure and how it is transmitted. Then we will examine how this virus invades and infects our bodies and how/why it elicits the devastating effects that we have observed over the past few months. Finally, we will examine how we know that there are different strains of the virus and what that may mean for a vaccine.

Comments

This University presentation was part of the 8 week series called COVID-19 in Context. It was open to UMW students, faculty, staff, alumni, and the broader community in the early months of the COVID pandemic..
