A study has shown that the'SARS-Cov-2' virus, which causes corona19, penetrates host cells in the human body and extends tentacles to infect surrounding healthy cells like zombies.
An international research team led by the University of California, San Francisco, published a paper in the international journal Cell on the 26th, the Los Angeles Times (LAT) reported.
The researchers found that human cells infected with the Corona19 virus stretched out several tentacles under the command of the virus, causing demon-like deformations.
Infected cells produce a thin thread-shaped tentacle called'Philodopia' (Sasangwi-kwan), and this tentacle digs into the surrounding healthy cells and spreads the virus like a zombie.
Viruses usually proliferate by creating genetic material in host cells and then releasing genetic material out of dead cells, but the Corona 19 virus is equipped with one more weapon called'zombie tentacles' to increase the effectiveness of infection, the researchers analyzed. I did.
