Virology Journalemphasizes advances and key discoveries in the animal origin, viral evolution, epidemiology, diagnostics and pathogenesis of different emerging and re-emerging coronaviruses.

the outbreak of Middle East respiratory syndrome (MERS) which has spread to various countries including South Korea.
