Coronavirus particle, illustration. Different strains of coronavirus are responsible for diseases such as the common cold, gastroenteritis and SARS (severe acute respiratory syndrome).

Once inside the cells, the particles use the cells' machinery to make more copies of the virus. (Image by KTSDesign/Science/Getty Images/Science Photo Library RF)
