SARS-CoV-2 variants and seasonal coronaviruses continue to cause disease and coronaviruses in the animal reservoir pose a constant spillover threat. Importantly, understanding of how previous infection may influence future exposures, especially in the ...

Coronaviruses and their therapy
Coronaviruses may cause respiratory, enteric and central nervous system diseases in many species, including humans. Until recently, the relatively low burden of disease in humans caused by few of these viruses hampered development of coronavirus specific therapeutics.

Vaccine Candidate Against COVID-19 Based on Structurally Modified Plant Virus as an Adjuvant
A recombinant vaccine candidate has been developed based on the major coronaviruses’ antigen (S protein) fragments and a novel adjuvant—spherical particles (SPs) formed during tobacco mosaic virus thermal remodeling.

Abstract This chapter begins by describing older coronaviruses, such as SARS and MERS, followed by the novel coronavirus SARS-CoV-2. Details of Pfizer’s mRNA vaccine are described and viral vector vaccines are also reviewed. This chapter will also discuss two small-molecule antiviral drugs: Gilead’s remdesivir and dexamethasone.

Back to the Future: Immune Protection or Enhancement of Future Coronaviruses
Before the emergence of SARS-CoV-1, MERS-CoV, and most recently, SARS-CoV-2, four other coronaviruses (the alpha coronaviruses NL63 and 229E and the beta coronaviruses OC43 and HKU1) had already been circulating in the human population. These circulating

Antiviral functionalization of cellulose using tannic acid and tannin-rich extracts
Due to seasonally appearing viruses and several outbreaks and present pandemic, we are surrounded by viruses in our everyday life. In order to reduce viral transmission, functionalized surfaces that inactivate viruses are in large demand.
