Delighted to have this preprint out! It's been a long time in the works, involved a lot of fun discussion, and was a wonderful collaboration with Colin & Cecilia to get it from conception to final form.
New preprint! 🥳🎉 We looked at viral coinfection patterns at the largest scale ever in wildlife. We found a strong association among CoVs, PMVs, and influenza A, and higher coinfection rates in wildlife trade; plus, evidence that bats accumulate persistent infections. www.biorxiv.org/content/10.1...
