Non-lytic clearance of influenza B virus from infected cells preserves epithelial barrier function

Infection of a cell with influenza B virus (IBV) often results in cell death and the role of surviving cells in pathogenesis is unclear. Here, Dumm et al. generate a recombinant IBV that activates a host-cell reporter to permanently label infected cells, and show that surviving cells are important t...
