Area of Science:

  • Infectious Diseases
  • Virology
  • Public Health

Background:

  • Severe acute respiratory syndrome (SARS) emerged in China in 2002.
  • Caused by a novel coronavirus (SARS-CoV), it spread internationally via travel.
  • The outbreak had significant economic and psychological impacts.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To provide a comprehensive overview of SARS.
  • To educate the public and healthcare professionals about SARS-CoV.
  • To consolidate information on epidemiology, clinical features, and control.

Main Methods:

  • Literature review and synthesis of existing data.
  • Description of SARS-CoV characteristics.
  • Review of epidemiological, clinical, diagnostic, and management aspects.

Main Results:

  • Over 8,000 cases reported across three continents.
  • Detailed characteristics of SARS-CoV, epidemiology, and clinical presentation.
  • Information on diagnosis, treatment, and infection control measures.

Conclusions:

  • Significant knowledge gained on SARS in a short period.
  • Key uncertainties remain regarding SARS-CoV origin and environmental stability.
  • Further research is needed on its establishment in human populations.
