Transmission: Covid-19 does not appear to have intermediate hosts so that it can be spread only from human to human. Social isolation should be efficient if well implemented and respected. Targeted cells: It is a respiratory virus, and it does not directly target the immune cells so that people with a healthy immune system can recover.
