Abstract

Due to an authors' error, the original version of this article contained errors in in-text citations under Section 4.4 and the corresponding references. Reference [55] should be listed as [56] and the following paper should be listed as [55].

 

K. P. Tao, M. Chong, J. C. S. Pun, J. G. S. Tsun, S. M. W. Chow, C. S. H. Ng, M. H. T. Wang, Z. Chan, P. K. S. Chan, A. M. Li, and R. W. Y. Chan, “Suppression of influenza virus infection by rhinovirus interference at the population, individual and cellular levels,” medRxiv, doi: 10.1101/2021.08.09.21256656, 2021.

 

The two paragraphs in Section 4.4 (pp. 79–80) should be corrected as follows:

Co-infections of the influenza virus and rhinovirus are relatively common, especially in young children. Previous infection with rhinovirus inhibits subsequent influenza A virus infection by the IFN-mediated innate immune system in differentiated human airway epithelium (Fig. 17) [7]. In other words, rhinovirus induces an IFN response that suppresses subsequent influenza virus infection [7].

A recent study revealed that the replication of rhinovirus is not affected by SARS-CoV-2, although the replication of SARS-CoV-2 is inhibited by rhinovirus, indicating that rhinovirus infection protects against SARS-CoV-2 [55]. SARS-CoV-2, similar to the influenza virus and many other viruses, is inhibited by IFNs [55]. Therefore, the number of COVID-19 cases may be reduced due to the inhibitory effects of rhinovirus-induced IFN response.
