Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
This is an expanded second edition of the Special Issue “Reviews of Infectious Diseases”, the first edition of which included eight papers (https://www.mdpi.com/journal/pathogens/special_issues/4Y42ZD0493).
We are grateful to our readers, authors, anonymous peer reviewers, editors, and staff who have made substantial contributions to this journal over the years.
The emergence of novel infectious viruses poses a significant threat to global public health. Viruses such as severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus (SARS-CoV), SARS-CoV-2, Middle East respiratory syndrome coronavirus (MERS-CoV), Ebola virus (EBOV), Zika virus (ZIKV), and highly pathogenic influenza A viruses (IAVs) have evolved diverse strategies to evade human host defense mechanisms.
This Special Issue, titled “Reviews of Infectious Diseases”, intends to collect high-quality reviews on infectious diseases. We encourage scholars from across the globe to publish papers based on their most recent research.
Dr. Ceccarelli Giancarlo
Guest Editor
