Abstract
Molnupiravir was the first orally available SARS-CoV-2 antiviral approved for outpatient use against SARS-CoV-2, but its efficacy against variants of concern, especially delta, was questioned. Here the authors evaluate molnupiravir against variant of concern in numerous models, including human airway epithelium organoids, ferrets and Roborovski dwarf hamsters.
