ARS-CoV-2 is classified within the genus Betacoronavirus.

On rare occasions, coronaviruses

from other mammals can mutate and infect humans

and then spread from one person to another,

as has happened with the Severe Acute Respiratory

Syndrome (SARS) that first appeared in November

2002 in the province of Canton (China) and

the Middle East Coronavirus Respiratory Syndrome

(MERS) that was first identified in 2012 in Saudi

Arabia.

Wuhan's betacoronavirus sequence shows similarities

to betacoronaviruses found in bats, but they

are genetically distinct from other coronaviruses

such as SARS-CoV and MERS-CoV
