SARS-CoV-2 coronavirus
Coronaviruses are a large family of viruses that cause illnesses ranging from a common cold to more severe conditions. But the virus in question here is a new coronavirus which causes a lung disease which has been named COVID-19 (Corona virus disease 2019). It made its first appearance back in December 2019 in the Chinese city of Wuhan. According to Chinese authorities, people infected with the virus could have contracted it by consuming products of animal origin from a large city market, the Huanan Seafood Wholesale Market. On March 11, the World Health Organization classified COVID-19 as a pandemic.

The source adds the following information: "Du fait de la difficulté de l’identification et de le confirmation biologique de l’ensemble des cas de COVID-19, les données présentées sous-estiment le nombre réel de cas. Dans le cadre du passage en phase 3 les recommandations étant maintenant de réaliser un prélèvement à visée diagnostique uniquement pour certaines catégories de patients, cette sous-estimation devient plus importante. Santé publique France prépare de nouveaux indicateurs pour assurer le suivi de l’épidémie à la phase 3."
