We apologize for Proteopedia being slow to respond. For the past two years, a new implementation of Proteopedia has been being built. Soon, it will replace this 18-year old system. All existing content will be moved to the new system at a date that will be announced here.

A novel coronavirus was identified as the cause of an outbreak of respiratory illness first detected in Wuhan, China in 2019. The illness caused by this virus has been named coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19). The illustration (left) shows the overall structure of the COVID-19 virus. Note the spikes that adorn the outer surface, colored <span style="color:red">red</span>, which impart the look of a '''corona''' surrounding the virus.
