To better understand the ultrastructural morphology of SARS-CoV-2 infection and COVID-19, we will first briefly discuss the pathogenesis of COVID-19 and coronavirus replication in general and then examine the TEM findings in more detail. All rights reserved Coronaviruses including SARS-CoV-2 and the morphological changes associated with replication can be visualised by TEM in infected cell lines (figure 3A-G) [81] [82] [83] [84] [85] 87, 88] or organoids [96, 97] . Based on the cell culture findings outlined above, we expect to find the same SARS-CoV-2 morphology and distribution in vesicles of autopsy and biopsy tissues of COVID-19 patients. ./cache/cord-330597-nftwj0d5.txt ./txt/cord-330597-nftwj0d5.txt
