Identification of a new human coronavirus

TL;DR: A new group 1 coronavirus, HCoV-NL63, was identified in a 7-month-old child suffering from bronchiolitis and conjunctivitis as discussed by the authors.
Journal ArticleDOI

Human coronavirus NL63 employs the severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus receptor for cellular entry

TL;DR: It is shown that SARS-CoV shares its receptor ACE2 with HCoV-NL63, which suggests that highly pathogenic variants have ample opportunity to evolve, underlining the need for vaccines against HCoVs.
Journal ArticleDOI

Influenza and other respiratory viruses involved in severe acute respiratory disease in northern Italy during the pandemic and postpandemic period (2009-2011).

TL;DR: The proportion of SARI/ARDS cases and deaths due to influenza A(H1N1)pdm09 infection and the impact of other respiratory viruses during pandemic and postpandemic period (2009–2011) in northern Italy is evaluated and a virus discovery technique (VIDISCA-454) enabled the identification of one previously undiagnosed measles infection.
Journal ArticleDOI

Seasonal coronavirus protective immunity is short-lasting.
