    Snippet: Here we identified a potential therapeutic approach against hCoV-EMC/2012 combining IFN-a2b and ribavirin. Either treatment alone reduced virus replication by at least 1-log or as much as 4-logs in susceptible cell lines. Moreover, when combined, efficacy was reached at lower concentrations. Thus, this combination may provide a benefit as a treatment in humans. Vero cells display a high level of resistance to the activity of ribavirin 19, 27 . Th.....

Thus, this combination may provide a benefit as a treatment in humans. Vero cells display a high level of resistance to the activity of ribavirin 19, 27 . Thus, we also performed the same assay in LLC-MK2 cells, where sensitivity to ribavirin was observed at a much lower concentration.
