Inhalation of virus-loaded droplets as a clinically plausible pathway to deep lung infection
Respiratory viruses, such as SARS-CoV-2, preliminarily infect the nasopharyngeal mucosa. The mechanism of infection spread from the nasopharynx to the deep lung–which may cause a severe infection—is, however, still unclear. We propose a clinically plausible mechanism of infection spread to the deep...
