This study aims to comprehensively characterize the SARS-CoV-2 BA.5 variants using K18 hACE2 transgenic mice and golden hamsters as model organisms. Previous research on SARS-CoV-2 has utilized both mouse and hamster models, leading to conflicting results concerning the virus’s lethality. In our study, the finding suggests that H11-K18 hACE2 golden hamsters closely mimic the disease progression observed in human C...
