SARS-CoV-2 mutations acquired in mink reduce antibody-mediated neutralization

2021-02-12

Abstract excerpt

<h4>SUMMARY</h4> Transmission of SARS-CoV-2 from humans to farmed mink was observed in Europe and the US. In the infected animals viral variants arose that harbored mutations in the spike (S) protein, the target of neutralizing antibodies, and these variants were transmitted back to humans. This raised concerns that mink might become a constant source of human infection with SARS-CoV-2 variants associated with an...
