“The SARS Coronavirus Type 2 (SARS-CoV-2) is known to cause respiratory tract infections and  has been isolated from several bodily fluids. Although there is still no concrete evidence of an  animal reservoir, the World Health Organization has prematurely classified the Coronavirus  disease (COVID-19), caused by SARS-CoV-2, as a zoonotic disease”. 2.1 In your own view, discuss the possible route of transmission of SARS-CoV-2 from an animal source to humans

Viral Infections

Viruses are abundantly found, minute entities that have genetic material enclosed within a protein coat. The proteinaceous material enclosing the genetic material of the virus is called a capsid. The genetic material could be either DNA (deoxyribonucleic acid) or RNA (ribonucleic acid). A virus is too minute to be looked at with naked eyes and therefore visualized with the help of a microscope. They are acellular entities that require a host for processes, such as replication, transcription, translation and multiplication. Plants, animals, and bacteria act as host wherein the virus reproduce. Viruses cannot multiply outside the host's body and thus are considered nonliving outside the host body.
