TWiV discusses a twice-yearly antiviral for prevention of AIDS, the WHO pandemic plan, West Nile resurgence in the US, the BANAL SARS-CoV-2 related viruses reproduce in human cells but do not transmit among animal hosts, and an amino acid change in dengue virus that enhances midgut replication in mosquitoes but reduces pathogenicity in humans.
TWiV reveals isolation from bats in Laos of a SARS-CoV-2 like virus with a spike protein that allows entry into human cells, and exploration of a herpesvirus vector for immunization of vampire bats against rabies virus.
