p.i., postinfection; n/a, not applicable; n.d., none detected with the following limits of detection: log10 TCID50 = 0.5, vRNA = 10, and neutralizing antibody titer = 5.
Day 14 postreinfection for animals challenged on day 28 and 56 corresponds to days 42 and 70, postprimary infection, respectively.
Animals rechallenged on day 28 were the donor animals for the respiratory droplet transmission study shown in Fig. 1G.
Animals rechallenged on day 56 were the donor animals for the direct contact transmission study shown in Fig. 1A.
Results are expressed as the reciprocal serum dilution that neutralized 100 TCID50s of SARS-CoV-2.
