claim: molecular profiling of lung sars-cov-2 and influenza virus infection dissects virus-specific host responses and gene signatures
evidence_1: here, we use spatial transcriptomics to generate an in- depth picture of the pulmonary transcriptional landscape of covid-19 (10 patients), pandemic h1n1 (ph1n1) influenza (5) and uninfected control patients (4).", "collectively, these data demonstrate that spatial transcriptomics is a powerful tool to identify novel gene signatures within tissues, offering new insights into the pathogenesis of sars-cov-2 to aid in patient triage and treatment.")
