Human Paramyxovirus Infections Induce T Cells That Cross-React with Zoonotic Henipaviruses

Humans encounter multiple paramyxoviruses early in life. This study shows that infection with common paramyxoviruses can induce T cells cross-reactive with the highly pathogenic Nipah virus. This demonstrates that the combination of paramyxovirus infection history and HLA haplotype affects immunity...
