From the paper:

> We show that the resulting macromolecules are broad-spectrum, biocompatible, and virucidal at micromolar concentrations in vitro against many viruses [including herpes simplex virus (HSV), respiratory syncytial virus (RSV), dengue virus, and Zika virus].

I wonder if they meant “in vivo”.

"in vitro" (literally in glass) is usually the opposite of "in vivo", so that would be a pretty huge error.
