People who recovered from COVID-19 infection or were vaccinated against SARS-CoV-2 are more likely to have immunity to other closely related bat coronaviruses that could have the potential to threaten future human health. Read Full Article #COVID19 #SARSCoV2…
🦠 People recovered from COVID-19 or vaccinated show immunity to related bat coronaviruses that could pose future human health risks.
🔬 A joint study by The Pirbright Institute and King’s College London found bat coronaviruses that infect many species are most related to SARS-CoV-2 and recognized by existing COVID-19 immunity.
🧬 Research published today in PLOS Biology examined how bat sarbecoviruses interact with ACE2 receptors, finding "generalist" viruses closely align with SARS-CoV-2.
💉 Blood samples from COVID-19 survivors successfully neutralized related bat coronaviruses, indicating broader protection and potential for pan-sarbecovirus vaccines.
