Cover Story: The emergence of SARS-CoV-2 variants requires close monitoring to prevent the reoccurrence of a new pandemic in the near future. Hyperbranched poly-L-lysine nanopolymers have shown an excellent ability to block the original strain of SARS-CoV-2 infection. Modification with L-arginine increases a nanomaterial’s ability to inhibit viral replication for the Delta and Omicron variants as well. The therapeutic index and an in vitro prevention and post-infection model show the safety profile and effectiveness of the various polymeric compositions in inhibiting or suppressing viral infection. View this paper
