Abstract
A cluster of cases of pneumonia caused by a novel coronavirus, COVID-19, was first reported in Wuhan in the Hubei province in China in late December 2019. Since then, several thousand cases have been reported in mainland China, with spread to over two dozen countries. Although many comparisons to other coronavirus epidemics have been made, the potential impact of this coronavirus is uncertain. We seek to summarize what is known about COVID-19, compare this epidemic to prior coronavirus outbreaks, and provide a primer on novel coronaviruses for practicing clinicians.
