Large collaboration creates cell atlas of COVID-19 pathology

Scientists from several hospitals and research centers have shown what happens in individual cells of patients who died of COVID-19. In a study published in Nature, the researchers describe how infected cells from multiple organs exhibited a range of molecular and genomic changes. They also saw signs of multiple, unsuccessful attempts of the lungs to repair themselves in response to respiratory failure, which is the leading cause of death in COVID-19 patients.
