The virus that causes COVID-19 has been very good at mutating to keep infecting people—so good that most antibody treatments ...

Scientists found that it can bind to human ACE2 receptors, similar to SARS-CoV-2 (the virus behind COVID-19). This suggests it has the potential for animal-to-human transmission. Experts note that ...

The discovery of a new bat coronavirus in China has sparked concerns of another pandemic. The virus, HKU5-CoV-2, is similar to to SARS-CoV-2, the virus that causes COVID-19.

The antibodies attach to a part of the virus that doesn't appear to mutate, potentially allowing them to work on multiple ...
