From the article:
* Nature wades through the literature on the new coronavirus — and summarizes key papers as they appear.
 
* Scientists have found antibodies that recognize SARS-CoV-2 in the blood of people who have never caught the virus. Children are particularly likely to harbour such antibodies, which might explain why most infected children have either mild illness or none at all.
