Researchers assessed the binding pocket of linoleic acid, an essential free-fatty acid in the receptor-binding domains of the spike protein of beta-coronaviruses.

KUALA LUMPUR: As Malaysia transitions to the endemic phase of Covid-19, one big question arises – should we be concerned about the return of the common cold?
