An ancient viral epidemic involving host coronavirus interacting genes more than 20,000 years ago in East Asia

2020-11-16

Abstract excerpt

<h4>Summary</h4> The current SARS-CoV-2 pandemic has emphasized the vulnerability of human populations to novel viral pressures, despite the vast array of epidemiological and biomedical tools now available. Notably, modern human genomes contain evolutionary information tracing back tens of thousands of years, which may help identify the viruses that have impacted our ancestors – pointing to which viruses have fut...
