A neonatal mouse model characterizes transmissibility of SARS-CoV-2 variants and reveals a role for ORF8
2022-10-04
Abstract excerpt
Small animal models have been a challenge for the study of SARS-CoV-2 transmission, with most investigators using golden hamsters or ferrets 1, 2 . Mice have the advantages of low cost, wide availability, less regulatory and husbandry challenges, and the existence of a versatile reagent and genetic toolbox. However, adult mice do not robustly transmit SARS-CoV-2 3 . Here we establish a model based on neonatal mi...
