Relative infectivity of the SARS-CoV-2 Omicron variant in human alveolar cells

2022-04-14

Abstract excerpt

With the emergence of multiple highly transmissible SARS-CoV-2 variants during the recent pandemic, the comparison of their infectivity has become a substantially critical issue for public health. However, a direct assessment of these viral characteristics has been challenging due to the lack of appropriate experimental models and efficient methods. Here, we integrated human alveolar organoids and single-cell tran...
