Blind Spots in Fighting the Outbreak of Coronavirus Disease 2019

Year: 2020

Type: article

Abstract: The recent outbreak of 2019 novel coronavirus infection has involved more than 110,000 people and 105 countries. Many efforts have been made to prevent, contain and treat the related disease (named as coronavirus disease 2019). However, many blind spots might not yet receive needed attention. I here discuss eight blind spots that may interest related parties. If these issues remain outstanding, they will likely lead to many severe harms to the public, healthcare providers and the economy. Additional research is therefore needed to better understand and address these blind spots in fighting the outbreak of coronavirus disease 2019.
