The original version of this Article incorrectly used nm length unit to describe the opening of SARS-CoV-2 RBD during interaction with ACE2 receptor. Instead of nm, the length distance should be described using Angstroms (Å). This has now been corrected in both the PDF and HTML versions of the Article.
