Req # A-2021-000725
All records describing the isolation of a SARS-COV-2 virus, directly from a sample taken from a diseased patient, where the patient sample was not first combined with any other source of genetic material (i.e.monkey kidney cells aka Vero cells; liver cancer cells). Please note that I am using "isolation" in the every-day sense of the word: the act of separating a thing(s) from everything else. I am not requesting records where "isolation of SARS-COV-2" refers instead to: the culturing of something, or the performance of an amplification test (i.e. a PCR test), or the sequencing of something. To clarify, I am requesting all such records that are in the possession, custody or control of Health Canada.Organization: Health Canada
