A 58-year-old woman comes to the emergency department with a fever, cough, and shortness of breath. Her spouse was recently diagnosed with asymptomatic SARS-CoV-2. A quantitative reverse transcription PCR nasal swab is performed and is positive for acute infection. Which cellular receptors does the causative virus most likely bind to, resulting in infection?

Summary
Coronavirus consists of a family of enveloped, single-stranded RNA viruses known to cause respiratory illness in humans. Symptoms of coronavirus infection include fever, cough, and shortness of breath. These viruses are believed to spread through contact with an infected person's secretions, such as saliva or mucus. It can also be spread through close contact with an infected animal, such as wild animals.
