About the International Journal of Coronaviruses
Advancing Global Understanding Through Rigorous Scientific Research
Journal Overview
The International Journal of Coronaviruses (IJCV) stands as a premier peer-reviewed, open-access publication platform dedicated to advancing research on coronaviruses and their variants, including SARS-CoV-2. Launched in 2020 in direct response to the global pandemic, IJCV serves the critical mission of facilitating rigorous dissemination of high-quality coronavirus research to the global scientific community.
Our commitment: Through meticulous evaluation and insightful analysis by our distinguished editorial board and expert reviewers, we ensure that only the highest caliber research reaches our global audience through our open-access platform.
Importance of Coronavirus Research
Continuous coronavirus research is essential in our global effort to understand COVID-19 and emerging coronavirus variants, develop advanced treatment methods, create effective vaccines, reduce community transmission, prevent infections, and minimize impact on human and animal health systems. This research generates crucial public awareness, enhances understanding of new mutations and variants, and prepares society for future pandemic challenges.
Ongoing COVID-19 research not only advances our understanding of current situations but also equips the global community to effectively respond to unexpected challenges from new variants, ultimately minimizing economic impact and reducing mortality rates.
