Epidemiology and genetic diversity of common human coronaviruses in Beijing, 2015-2023: A prospective multicenter study
This nine-year multicenter study in Beijing systematically elucidated that the four HCoVs exhibit distinct epidemiological characteristics, susceptible populations, and common mutations in amino acid sites, especially in the context of COVID-19. Therefore, continuous epidemiological surveillance and genetic characterization studies are imperative for predictive warning and timely identification of emerging coronavirus.
