Free information centre for coronavirus
29 Jan 2020
Elsevier has created a free information centre on the coronavirus currently causing respiratory disease in China.
It brings together all the relevant content on 2019-nCoV from medical journals, textbooks, clinical experts along with resources from other information providers and major health organizations in both English and Mandarin. Also available is information typically used by practicing nurses and doctors, plus resources designed specifically for patients and their families. Elsevier’s team in China is preparing a similar information center for its local website.
“We want to support healthcare professionals, clinical researchers and policy makers in understanding how this new virus works, and so we have brought together the best available information in this free, one-stop information center,” said John Danaher, MD, President, Global Clinical Solutions, Elsevier.
As of 26 January, the World Health Organization said that the number of reported confirmed cases of novel coronavirus has increased by 694 cases since the previous day’s situation report. A total of 2,014 confirmed 2019-nCoV cases have been reported globally, and of those, 1,985 cases were reported from China. Fifty-six deaths have been reported to date.
