This color-enhanced image, taken by scanning electron microscopy, shows huge quantities of SARS-CoV-2 particles (purple) that have burst out of kidney cells (green), which the virus hijacked for replication. The bulging, spherical cells in the upper-right and bottom-left corners are distorted and about to burst from the viral particles inside, and are beginning to self-destruct.
