Our knowledge on COVID-19 is still quite limited despites the unprecedented efforts by scientists and clinical researchers over the last few months of the virus out breaking. Thus, this paper reviewed the current literature about the virus features, infectivity, pathogenicity and clinical implications that hinder the clinical diagnosis of SARS-CoV-2.
