The social and political distresses caused by this epidemic will certainly impact our world for a long time to come. Here, we synthesize lessons from a range of scientific perspectives rooted in epidemiology, virology, genetics, ecology and evolutionary biology so as to provide perspective on how this pandemic started, how it is developing, and how best we can stop it.en-USCoevolutionCoronavirusHost susceptibilityImmune systemPandemicsPhylodynamicsCOVID-19Biochemistry, Biophysics, and Structural BiologyEcology and Evolutionary BiologyGenetics and GenomicsImmunology and Infectious DiseaseInfectious DiseaseVirologyVirus DiseasesSARS-CoV-2 and COVID-19: A genetic, epidemiological, and evolutionary perspectiveJournal Articlehttps://escholarship.umassmed.edu/covid19/4217962974covid19/42
