TL;DR: It is shown that reverse transcription (RT°) occurs within an intact capsid (CA) shell, independently of the routing process towards the nuclear membrane, and that uncoating is not an immediate post‐fusion event, but rather occurs at the nuclear pore upon RT° completion.

TL;DR: In this article , the authors show that SARS-CoV-2-like viruses can infect human cells through the ACE2 pathway in cave bats living in the limestone karstic terrain in northern Laos, in the Indochinese peninsula.

TL;DR: The relatively low IAR observed in an area where SARS-CoV-2 actively circulated weeks before confinement measures indicates that establishing herd immunity will take time, and that lifting these measures in France will be long and complex.

TL;DR: Overall, the data indicate that a shortened NA stalk is a strong determinant of adaptation and virulence of waterfowl influenza viruses in chickens.

TL;DR: It is shown in a first proof-of-concept pilot study that a prime/boost vaccination strategy using lentiviral vectors pseudotyped with a glycoprotein G from two non-cross-reactive vesicular stomatitis virus serotypes elicited robust and broad cellular immune responses against the vector-encoded antigen, simian immunodeficiency virus (SIV) GAG, in cynomolgus macaques.
