Welcome to this video on the COVID-19 disease caused by the SARS-CoV-2 coronavirus.
In this tutorial we will discuss:
- Structure of the SARS-CoV-2 virus and its structural glycoproteins
- ACE-2 receptor interaction and mechanisms of host cell entry
- Pathogenesis and mechanism of ARDS
- Typical chest radiograph and CT appearances
We hope you have found this video informative - see references below for further reading.
