We partnered with ENT1DEP to animate this hypothesis. The animation follows the virus from entry through the respiratory or gastrointestinal tract, into the bloodstream, and into the beta cells themselves. From there, we take the viewer inside the cell, showing how a persistent low-grade infection may stress beta cells over time, overwhelm their machinery, and ultimately trigger an autoimmune response that destroys them.
