Amid a 'triple-demic,' scientists investigate two of the viruses interactions and co-infections.
to watch these hybrid virus particles. The hybrids contain key elements from both viruses, including their genetic information. One of the hybrid virus particles could infect new cells with influenza A using the entry mechanism that RSV uses, which enabled the virus to remain undetected by the body’s natural immune responses.
The results show that hybrid virus particles could possibly be created during co-infection of the flu and RSV, but it is still unknown if this would happen during a natural human infection rather than in a lab setting.
. “Our next steps are to find out if hybrid particles are formed in patients with co-infections, and to identify which virus combinations can generate hybrid particles, although our working assumption is that only few respiratory viruses will form hybrid viruses.”
