MERS coronavirus, TEM C015 / 7155
MERS coronavirus. Coloured transmission electron micrograph (TEM) of MERS coronavirus particles (orange) budding from a host cell (brown). This virus (originally novel coronavirus 2012) has been named Middle East respiratory syndrome (MERS) coronavirus. It is thought to be similar to the ones that cause SARS (severe acute respiratory syndrome). A SARS-like virus killed hundreds in 2002 and 2003. This new virus, which first emerged in 2012, is being tracked by the World Health Organisation (WHO), with 54 confirmed cases and 27 deaths as of May 2013. The genetic sequence of the virus is being studied by the UKs Health Protection Agency. Magnification: x30, 000 when printed at 10 centimetres wide

EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the MERS coronavirus, a deadly virus that emerged in 2012 and is causing global concern. The coloured transmission electron micrograph (TEM) reveals the intricate details of this virus as it replicates and buds from a host cell. The orange particles represent the MERS coronavirus, while the brown represents the host cell. Similar to its cousin, the SARS virus that caused widespread devastation in 2002-2003, this novel coronavirus has been named Middle East respiratory syndrome (MERS) coronavirus. With 54 confirmed cases and 27 deaths as of May 2013, this virus has caught the attention of international health organizations like the World Health Organisation (WHO). They are closely monitoring its spread and potential for an epidemic. The UK's Health Protection Agency is studying the genetic sequence of this virus to better understand its characteristics and develop effective countermeasures. This TEM image provides scientists with valuable insights into how these virions reproduce and replicate within their hosts. As we navigate through the challenges posed by emerging infectious diseases in our modern world, images like these serve as a reminder of humanity's ongoing battle against microscopic threats. It highlights both our scientific progress in understanding viruses at such detailed levels but also emphasizes our need for continued vigilance to protect public health worldwide.
