A novel virus refers to a virus that is newly identified or discovered, and is different from previously known viruses. These viruses may pose a challenge in terms of understanding their characteristics, transmission, and potential impact on humans or other organisms. Examples include the novel coronavirus (SARS-CoV-2) that causes COVID-19.
