The original version of this Article contained an error in the Results section, under the subheading ‘Viral replication and host response to primary infection with SARS-CoV-2’.

“To investigate infection outcomes of HGPS mice, we examined the pathogenesis of SARS-CoV-2 in 2-month-old HGPS/hACE2 mice infected with the original strain of the coronavirus from Wuhan (WIV04).”

now reads:

“To investigate infection outcomes of HGPS mice, we examined the pathogenesis of SARS-CoV-2 in 2-month-old HGPS/hACE2 mice infected with the wild-type strain WIV04.”

The original Article has been corrected.
