The Klick COVID-19 virus model, created by the company’s scientific visualization team, is more complete than most models currently being shown because it includes both internal and external structures.

In addition to showing the surface proteins on the outside of the virus, the new model highlights the internal nucleocapsid that contains the virus’ genetic material (RNA), which instructs the virus to infect cells and replicate.

In related news, to help frontline healthcare professionals combating COVID-19, Klick recently donated 350,000 masks, and 1,000 face shields, as well as 1,000 of the intubation boxes it created with Humber River Hospital. It also recently established the Frontlines.Health Foundation to fund the materials and production of additional intubation boxes, masks, and other forms of PPE.
