感染后会变身“德古拉”？美国首次发现“吸血鬼病毒”（朗读版）|E1115

▍原文

For the first time, 'vampire viruses' have been observed in the wild by US scientists. These viruses attach themselves to other viruses for replication, a phenomenon previously only theoretical, now witnessed under a microscope by a Maryland-based research team.

This research into the complex interactions between viruses and their satellites has the potential to offer new directions for antiviral therapy.
