What has emerged from 19 months of work, backed by decades of coronavirus research, is a blow-by-blow account of how SARS-CoV-2 invades human cells (see ‘Life cycle of the pandemic coronavirus’). Scientists have discovered key adaptations that help the virus to grab on to human cells with surprising strength and then hide itself once inside. Later, as it leaves cells, SARS-CoV-2 executes a crucial processing step to prepare its particles for infecting even more human cells. These are some of the tools that have enabled the virus to spread so quickly and claim millions of lives. “That’s why it’s so difficult to control,” says Wendy Barclay, a virologist at Imperial College London.

Zyesami (Tm) is A VIP analog, “Delta can run but, can it hide…???” ———
Vasoactive intestinal peptide (VIP) has recently been shown to bind to human lymphocytes and modulate immune functions. The ability of VIP in restoring natural killer (NK) cell activity depressed by hepatitis B surface antigen (HBsAg) has been investigated in the present research.
