Ever since late 2019, the COVID pandemic has given the world a great deal of pain and financial loss. Virologists around the world are working hard to eradicate it. Vaccines and treatment methods have been found, which cannot be accomplished without the joint efforts of the world virologist community. Naturally, facilitating global communication would help advance the research. This paper analyzes syntactical features of English virology texts and finds that: In these texts, verbs and postpositive attributes are used frequently, complicated logic needs careful analysis, and personification is often used. Having some knowledge of these sentence features may contribute to better communication in the virology community.
