The evolving role of preprints in the dissemination of COVID-19 research and their impact on the science communication landscape.
Nicholas Fraser,Liam Brierley,Gautam Dey,Jessica K. Polka,Máté Pálfy,Federico Nanni,Jonathon Alexis Coates +6 more
TL;DR: The data provide evidence for increased scientific and public engagement with preprints related to COVID-19, as well as changes in the use of preprints by journalists and policymakers, and for changes in preprinting and publishing behaviour.

Preprinting the COVID-19 pandemic
Nicholas Fraser,Liam Brierley,Gautam Dey,Jessica K. Polka,Máté Pálfy,Federico Nanni,Jonathon Alexis Coates,Jonathon Alexis Coates +7 more
TL;DR: This work investigated the attributes of COVID-19 preprints, their access and usage rates and characteristics of sharing across online platforms, and highlighted the unprecedented role of preprint servers in the dissemination of CO VID-19 science, and the impact of the pandemic on the scientific communication landscape.
Epidemiological characteristics of human-infective RNA viruses
TL;DR: A catalogue of all 214 known human-infective RNA virus species is provided, linking these viruses to metadata for a number of traits that influence their epidemiology, including the date of the first report of human infection, transmissibility in human populations, transmission route and host range.
