SARS-CoV-2 is the coronavirus that is responsible for COVID-19, the respiratory illness responsible for the ongoing pandemic. This is a virus of the species severe acute respiratory syndrome-related coronavirus (SARSr-CoV). The virus primarily spreads through close contact and respiratory droplets (aerosols) that are exhaled when talking, breathing, as well as from coughs and sneezes. It largely enters the human cells by binding to angiotensin converting enzyme 2 (ACE2), a membrane protein that regulates the renin-angiotensin system (https://www.who.int/emergencies/diseases/novel-coronavirus-2019)
