Whether there is further potential for sars cov 2 to spread through the air has been less clear.
The genetic material of sars cov 2 virus comprises of rna.
Reported modes of sars cov 2 rna transmission to humans include close contact with infected individuals contact with contaminated surfaces or inhalation of droplets released from the respiratory system of people with the virus.
That is a change of a single base unit nucleotide in the order of the base units that constitutes the genetic material of the organism.
To do so the virus has to multiply its genetic material.
The genome of the sars cov 2 the virus that causes covid 19 was sequenced and shared by china in early january.
In order to achieve this their genetic material has to be compact enough to efficiently enter cells.
Rna and dna are fragments of genetic material.
Between 22 and 77 of the.
In the case of sars cov 2 this is accomplished by having a single positive sense stranded rna molecule which dependent on the reading frame of translating ribosomes encodes multiple proteins needed to assemble new virus.
