Some viruses are known to compete in order to be the one that causes an infection. And University of Glasgow scientists say it appears cold-causing rhinovirus trumps coronavirus. The benefits might be short-lived but rhinovirus is so widespread, they add, it could still help to suppress Covid. Professor Pablo Murcia, who was behind the study, explains what the study means in terms of the relationship between the common cold and the Covid virus.
