LitCovid is a curated literature hub for tracking up-to-date scientific information about the 2019 novel Coronavirus.

It is the most comprehensive resource on the subject, providing a central access to 1120 (and growing) research articles in PubMed. The aim is to provide timely insight from the scientific literature into the biology of the virus and the diagnosis and management of those who have been infected.

The articles are updated daily and are further categorized by different research topics and geographic locations for improved access.
