1/Big question.
Are you aware of any other virus that infects both eukaryotes and prokaryotes?

Because if SARS-CoV-2 does, it’s not just unusual—it’s unprecedented.
"Not exceptional"?

@amymaxmen @fitterhappierAJ 2/We already know SARS-CoV-2 infects a broad range of eukaryotic cells—across species and tissues.

But if it can also infect bacteria—prokaryotes—that means it crosses domains.
That’s not just rare. That’s paradigm-breaking.

@amymaxmen @fitterhappierAJ 3/Are there any precedents of a virus that infects both domains—eukaryotes AND prokaryotes?

Because if this is a first, it’s the biggest slap in the face to the “COVID is not exceptional” crowd.
