I had the same confusion over the half life ratings.
TCID50/mL is how much you can dilute a sample and still have it kill half of the cells in a sample. This suggests that the natural reading of those graphs is correct.
I estimated some numbers off the graph and it looks like what they are calling half-life is actually 1/5th life, so either we’re both missing something important or there is an error somewhere.

I’ve emailed the author; we’ll see if she has time to respond (or if the code goes up on Github; I can’t find it yet).
Looks like v2 of the paper has corrected the error.
