The wound microbiota: microbial mechanisms of impaired wound healing and infection

rdcu.be/dDI0s

Grice & co explore the diversity of microbes present in wounds and examine the mechanisms through which they invade skin tissues, impair skin repair and cause infection.

BA.2.86, a clear chronic infection-derived variant, has obtained near-total global dominance in the form of JN.1. This may have squeezed out any room for new CI-derived variants to take hold & spread, but they're still out there. A recent one had ~38 private spike mutations. 1/5
