| | CDC Media Relations - Telebriefing Transcript - March 24, 2003 |
 | | You've heard reports from other laboratories internationally that are also concerned that Coronavirus may be an etiology. | | | We are also here today to tell you a little bit about what is happening in our laboratories and in the laboratories of our collaborators internationally with respect to the viral cause of this infectious disease. | | | And I think the mystery here is how do we make sense out of all of this information and really relate it to the epidemiology and the large number of affected people that we're seeing. |

| | For research purposes, virus can be cultured from nasal swabs or washings by inoculating organ cultures of human fetal or nasal tracheal epithelium. | | | The epidemiology of coronavirus colds has been little studied. | | | Cell-mediated immunity and allergy have been little studied, but may play a role. |

| | December '96 - Coronavirus |
| | This month, I’ll describe canine coronavirus, which is probably the second most important cause of virus-infected intestinal disease (viral enteritis) in dogs. | | | Vaccines against canine coronavirus exist, but their effectiveness is questionable. | | | In a kennel situation, the virus is highly contagious and spreads rapidly from dog to dog. |

| | Coronavirus infection aka corona virus affects many dogs |
| | The coronavirus is transmitted when a dog ingests feces from another dog that has the virus. | | | The virus grows in the animal’s small intestine and may cause gastrointestinal problems. | | | For information on reprinting articles please contact Working Dogs. |

| | Coronavirus - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia |
| | Hence, significant research efforts have been focused on elucidating the viral pathogenesis of these animal coronaviruses, especially by virologists interested in veterinary and zoonotic diseases. | | | Four to five of total isolated strains of coronaviruses infect humans. | | | Early 2005, a research team at the University of Hong Kong reported finding a fifth human coronavirus in two pneumonia patients, and subsequently named it HKU1. |

| | Canine Coronavirus is a virus that affects the intestinal tract of dogs. | | | 90% of all dogs have had exposure to Coronavirus at one time or another. | | | Because it is a virus, there is NO CURE for coronavirus at this time. |

| | CIDRAP >> New coronavirus may be SARS cause, CDC says |
| | There is no "on-the-shelf medication" that is effective against coronaviruses, but the CDC has asked the Department of Defense to rapidly test various antiretroviral drugs to see if they might combat the virus, Gerberding reported. | | | Larry Anderson, MD, chief of the respiratory branch in the CDC's National Center for Infectious Diseases, said some foreign laboratories collaborating with the CDC have also found evidence of coronavirus involvement in SARS. | | | Further steps needed to confirm the coronavirus hypothesis include further culturing of the virus from appropriate specimens, sequencing of the viral genome, and examining specimens from patients at different stages of the illness, the CDC news release stated. |

| | The precise evolutionary relationship of this new human coronavirus to the established members of the family has yet to be determined. | | | HCoV-NL63 is associated with acute respiratory tract disease, but not the severe pneumonia associated with the SARS coronavirus. | | | The essential conclusion is that this novel human coronavirus, like the novel human metapneumovirus also detected first in The Netherlands, has been found also in patients in Japan, confirming its probable prevalence as a world-wide respiratory pathogen - Mod.CP] |

| | Although researchers had widely accepted this new coronavirus as the primary cause of SARS in recent weeks, a series of conditions known as Koch's postulates had to be met before it could be officially recognized as the cause. | | | Two known strains of coronaviruses are known to cause the common cold and respiratory infections in humans, and other strains cause more serious illnesses in animals. | | | April 16, 2003 -- After weeks of speculation, a new form of a coronavirus never before seen in humans has been confirmed as the cause of SARS (severe acute respiratory syndrome). |
