COVID-19 Virus Shedding

Abstract

As of December 2019, the SARS-CoV-2 virus (responsible for the COVID-19 disease) has been rapidly spreading throughout the world. In order to understand the spread, viral shedding characteristics, which refers to the release of the virus from an infected individual into the environment, must be determined. As we are currently in the middle of the COVID-19 pandemic, additional research is required to fully understand the characteristics of SARS-CoV-2 shedding.
