Cytokine and chemokine levels in tissues of mice after infection with Middle East respiratory syndrome coronavirus (MERS‐CoV). A, Postinfection cytokine and chemokine levels in the lungs of mice. B, Postinfection cytokine and chemokine levels in the brains of mice. Mice in the instillation group died acutely or were euthanized when they researched 25% weight loss; these mice had a 0% survival rate by day 5, so no results were available on days 7 and 9. The results represent the mean ± SD for each group (n = 3). *P < .05, **P < .01, ***P < .001, and ****P < .0001
