I've grown tired of pulling up sources on mobile but publications claim the virus accumulates in nasal passaged during incubation. Also thought to play a role in the high false negative rates for testing.

This is also true - digestive and respiratory organs appear to accumulate the virus most. Also heart and liver, which explains the high co-morbidity for people with damage to those organs.

Looks like any organ with ACE2 receptors.
