Woot! Found a new virus for my collection: Coronavirus OC43!
This virus may have caused the 1889 pandemic that killed a million people! https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Human_coronavirus_OC43
In my freezer I now have (non-imfectious) RNA of:
- Rhinovirus
- SARS-CoV-2
- Influenza A
- RSV B
- OC43
I feel a bit like a kid collecting serial killer trading cards 😳
