Abstract
A striking aspect of COVID-19 is the difference in the outcome of the infection between different countries, and different ethnic groups within one country. We surveyed the literature on SARS-CoV-2 complemented with comparative publications on SARS-CoV and other coronaviruses to capture the current understanding of virus – host interactions including virus subtypes, transmission, zoonotic aspects, and potential host determinants.
Keywords
covid; covid-19; SARS-CoV-2; zoonosis; ethnic disparities; health care disparities; virus strains; virus subtypes; virus variants

Four more tigers and three ions tested positive for SARS-CoV-2 at the Bronx Zoo. Additionally, 2 house cats were found SARS-CoV-2 positive in New York. We added this information (page 8).
We also did little edits on the paragraph formatting, and added page numbers.
