a Representative images of H&E staining of paediatric or adult bronchial epithelial cells infected with SARS-CoV-2 (CoV-2), H1N1 or treated with medium (ctrl) at 3 and 5 days post-infection (dpi). b, c Gene expression analysis by qPCR of infected bronchial epithelial cells. Coloured asterisks indicate statistically significant changes from uninfected conditions. Black bar and asterisk indicate statistically significant differences between paediatric and adult cells. Statistics: Mann–Whitney test. *p < 0.05; **p < 0.01.
