Abstract excerpt
The immune response to viral infection is a delicate balance. By perturbing this balance, immunodeficiencies are expected to influence within-host viral evolution. Indeed, the presence of immunocompromised hosts has been argued to be a source of novel viral variants in some infectious diseases, including SARS-CoV-2. However, these arguments rest upon between-host models and so the role of immunodeficiencies on...
