SARS-CoV-2, which has now developed into various varieties, including delta and omicron, is thought to have been initially transmitted to humans by bats in December 2019. A recent study shows the virus is still quite contagious among animals. Computer simulations created by researchers at the Rochester Institute of Technology (RIT) demonstrate how coronaviruses connect to host cells in bats and people similarly using their spike proteins.

Bats, the suspected species origin of COVID-19, are still capable of being infected by new strains of the virus, according to study of cross-species infectivity.

WASHINGTON, Dec 5: The SARS-CoV-2 virus is still highly transmissible between mammals, according to a study based on computer simulations. Researchers at Rochester Institute of Technology (RIT), US, found that coronaviruses use their spike proteins — which help them to infect cells — to attach themselves to the host cells in both bats and humans in much the same way. The findings, published in the journal Royal Society Open Science, show how the viral spike proteins in several SARS-CoV-2 variants […]

Scientists believe bats first transmitted SARS-CoV-2 to humans in December 2019, and while the virus has since evolved into several variants such as delta and omicron, a new study indicates the virus is still highly transmissible between mammals.

Rochester, NY (PRWEB) December 02, 2022 -- Scientists believe bats first transmitted SARS-CoV-2 to humans in December 2019, and while the virus has since
