An undated handout picture-set was made available by the National Institutes of Health (NIH) showing the transmission electron micrograph of SARS-CoV-2 virus particles, also known as 2019-nCoV, the virus that causes Covid-19, isolated from a patient (issued 01 March 2020).
The images were captured and color-enhanced at the National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases (NIAID) Integrated Research Facility (IRF) in Fort Detrick, Maryland, USA.

The spike protein (foreground) enables the virus to enter and infect human cells. On the virus model, the virus surface (blue) is covered with spike proteins (red) that enable the virus to enter and infect human cells. US health officials announced on 29 February 2020 the first confirmed death from the new coronavirus in the country in Washington State. The novel coronavirus is on the verge of spreading across the world as more Covid-19 cases are emerging outside China with outbreaks in South Korea, Italy and Iran.
