https://doi.org/10.1016/S1473-3099(20)30120-1. The “serial time” (the time between when one person becomes ill and someone that person infects does) is related to how quickly a virus multiplies, and it can have a big effect. For a study published last month in Annals of Internal Medicine, researchers at the University of Toronto created an interactive tool that instantly updates projections based on different values of R0 and serial interval.

![]() This is a 3D atomic scale map, or molecular structure, of the 2019-nCoV spike protein. The protein takes on two different shapes, called conformations—one before it infects a host cell, and another during infection. This structure represents the protein before it infects a cell, called the prefusion conformation.
