Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

  • Internal medicine
  • Virus
  • Disease

Jaffar A. Al-Tawfiq focuses on Middle East respiratory syndrome coronavirus, Virology, Coronavirus, Intensive care medicine and Virus. His Middle East respiratory syndrome coronavirus research includes themes of Observational study, Pediatrics and Immunology. As a part of the same scientific family, Jaffar A. Al-Tawfiq mostly works in the field of Virology, focusing on Betacoronavirus and, on occasion, Severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2, Coronavirus Infections and Enzootic.

His work carried out in the field of Coronavirus brings together such families of science as Disease cluster, Middle East respiratory syndrome and Asymptomatic. His study in the fields of Healthcare associated infections under the domain of Intensive care medicine overlaps with other disciplines such as Ribavirin. His research integrates issues of Sporothrix schenckii, Case fatality rate, Disseminated disease and Contact Investigation in his study of Virus.

His most cited work include:

  • Hospital Outbreak of Middle East Respiratory Syndrome Coronavirus (864 citations)
  • Transmission of MERS-Coronavirus in Household Contacts (270 citations)
  • Transmission and evolution of the Middle East respiratory syndrome coronavirus in Saudi Arabia: a descriptive genomic study (255 citations)

What are the main themes of his work throughout his whole career to date?

His primary scientific interests are in Middle East respiratory syndrome coronavirus, Virology, Coronavirus disease 2019, Internal medicine and Pediatrics. The Middle East respiratory syndrome coronavirus study combines topics in areas such as Outbreak, Intensive care medicine, Transmission, Case fatality rate and Coronavirus. His work on Virus as part of general Virology research is frequently linked to Transmission, thereby connecting diverse disciplines of science.

His work in Coronavirus disease 2019 tackles topics such as Health care which are related to areas like Family medicine. His research in Internal medicine intersects with topics in Global health, Antibiotics and Immunology. His work in Pediatrics addresses subjects such as Epidemiology, which are connected to disciplines such as Travel medicine.
