New preprint: The team did autopsies on 44 patients w/ #COVID-19 to map + quantify SARS-CoV-2 distribution, replication and cell-type specificity across the human body (including brain) from acute infection through over 7 months following symptom onset: researchsquare.com/article/rs-113…
2/ They found that #SARS-CoV-2 was widely distributed, even among patients who died with asymptomatic to mild COVID-19. They also detected persistent SARS-CoV-2 RNA in multiple anatomic sites, including regions throughout the #brain, for up to 230 days following symptom onset
3/ Persistence of low-level #SARS-CoV-2 RNA was frequently detected across multiple #tissue categories among all late cases patients who passed away after 31 days, despite being undetectable in plasma
