Proportions of deaths that could potentially have been averted if minoritized Michigan residents had experienced the same timing of infection as white residents during 2020. Vertical lines indicate the width of 95% posterior credible intervals. Abbreviation: AAPI, Asian American or Pacific Islander. 17% AAPI, 35% Black, and 9% of Latino Deaths could have been averted

Graphical Summary of results showing their mouse model. Summary of results. (A) Comparison of survival of WT C57BL/6 mice and PKR-TKO mice upon infection with WT MAV-1 at ~1 LD50 (102 PFU). “X” indicates knockout of PKR in the PKR-TKO mice. Data based on Fig. 3 and Table 1. (B) Comparison of survival of WT and PKR-TKO mice upon infection by mutant E4orf6TMC2 virus at the maximum dose, 107 PFU. The E4orf6 change of three amino acids in the Cul2-binding site is indicated by the “X” on the mutant virus
