Abstract

fetched live from OpenAlex

Post-pandemic MERS-CoV still presents risks Darryl Falzarano, Research Scientist at the Vaccine and Infectious Disease Organization (VIDO), discusses potential solutions that are needed to tackle the coronavirus known as MERS-CoV. The COVID-19 pandemic rapidly brought new tools to protect us from coronaviruses – in the form of effective vaccines and antivirals. While these preventatives and therapeutics provide a basis for the future development of additional countermeasures, current data suggests that these advances do not offer much assistance against another, much more pathogenic coronavirus, known as Middle East respiratory syndrome coronavirus (MERS-CoV). Since its discovery in 2012, there have been 2,605 reported cases of MERS-CoV, with most cases occurring in the Arabian Peninsula. The comparatively small number of cases has resulted in 936 deaths – a very high (35%) case-fatality rate.

Fetched live from OpenAlex and de-inverted. Abstracts are not stored in this database: the inverted indexes are 8.6 GB of the frame’s 9.3 GB of text, and the host has 13 GB free.

Full frame distilled prediction

Teacher imitation

Not calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)

The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.

Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
