This transmission electron microscope image shows SARS-CoV-2 also known as 2019-nCoV, the virus that causes COVID-19. Virus particles emerge from the surface of a cell cultured in the laboratory. Spikes on the outer edge of virus particles give coronaviruses their name, shaped like a crown. Image captured and colorized at Rocky Mountain Laboratories in Hamilton, Montana. Credit: NIAID
