SARS-CoV-2: Phylogenetic origins, pathogenesis, modes of
transmission, and the potential role of nanotechnology
The COVID-19 pandemic has elicited a rapid response from the scientific community with significant advances in understanding the causative pathogen (SARS-CoV-2). Mechanisms of viral transmission and pathogenesis as well as the structural and genomic details have been reported, which are essential in guiding containment, treatment, and vaccine development efforts.
The present paper is a concise review of the recent research in these domains and an exhaustive analysis of the genomic origins of SARS-CoV-2. Particular emphasis has been placed on the pathology and disease progression of COVID-19 as documented by recent clinical studies, in addition to the characteristic immune responses involved therein. Furthermore, the potential of nanomaterial and nanotechnology to develop diagnostic tools, drug delivery systems, and personal protective equipment design within the on-going pandemic context have also been
