The article explores whether people who had SARS or MERS might have immunity to COVID-19. COVID-19 is spreading quickly and has similarities to SARS and MERS. The study compares the genetic and protein similarities between the viruses to see if immunity from one can protect against the others. The researchers suggest that antibodies from SARS and MERS could help prevent COVID-19.
