Understanding the Pandemic: Pathophysiology, Transmission, and Treatment of COVID-19 aims to cover all aspects of COVID-19 infection from the virus, transmission, pathogenesis, immune-inflammation response, systemic injury, organ damage, associated factors, and comorbidities that drive mortality. Organized into ten sections, the book aims to provide a comprehensive examination of the impact of COVID-19. The book begins a review of coronaviruses, their structure and mechanism of action. The book goes on to discuss the immune response to the virus and its effect on various organs. It examines clinical cases based on an observations and postmortem studies.

Other topics include the long-term effects of COVD-19, vaccines, and public health response.


  • Discusses coronavirus and their similarities and differences in origin and transmission as well as a review of their structure and mechanisms of action
  • Examines the immune-inflammation responses to COVID-19 and the organ-specific impact of the disease
  • Covers vaccines and other treatment protocols and public health responses in various geographic locations
