Administration of vaccine-boosted COVID-19 convalescent plasma to SARS-CoV-2 infected hamsters decreases virus replication in lungs and hastens resolution of the infection despite transiently enhancing disease and lung pathology.

T. Carroll, T. Wong, M. K. Morris, C. Di Germanio, Z.-M. Ma, M. Stone, E. E. Ball, L. Fritts, A. Rustagi, G. Simmons, M. P. Busch, C. J. Miller

This study shows that vaccine-boosted convalescent plasma reduces SARS-CoV-2 replication in hamsters but temporarily worsens disease and lung pathology.

Inducible Bronchus-Associated Lymphoid Tissue in SARS-CoV-2 Infected Rhesus Macaques

Z.-M. Ma, K. J. Olstad, K. K. A. Van Rompay, S. S. Iyer, C. J. Miller, J. R. Reader

This study identifies inducible bronchus-associated lymphoid tissue in SARS-CoV-2 infected rhesus macaques, suggesting local immunity plays a role in infection.

The B.1.427/1.429 (epsilon) SARS-CoV-2 variants are more virulent than ancestral B.1 (614G) in Syrian hamsters

T. Carroll, D. Fox, N. van Doremalen, E. Ball, M. K. Morris, A. Sotomayor-Gonzalez, V. Servellita, A. Rustagi, C. K. Yinda, L. Fritts, J. R. Port, Z.-M. Ma, M. Holbrook, J. Schulz, C. A. Blish, , C. J. Miller

This study shows that the B.1.427/1.429 (epsilon) SARS-CoV-2 variants cause more severe disease and higher viral loads in the upper respiratory tract in Syrian hamsters compared to the ancestral B.1 (614G) strain.
