    I’m always initially deceived by these posts from “nature.com” “Nature Research Highlights” is the biomedical equivalent of “MIT News”, they’d lead one to think the cure for cancer and unlimited battery storage are around the corner.

  Which is great, animal models for viral diseases are easy to prove out (if they get the virus you get some information testing antibodies in them). The antibody itself was identified from a sample taken from a human and looks like an interesting target for a vaccine or monoclonal antibody therapy (there's lot of RSV candidates in the pipeline https://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/pii/S1473309922002912 https://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/pii/S147330992... ).
