Req # A-2021-45

All records describing the isolation of a SARS-CoVZ / Covid-19 virus, directly from a sample taken from a diseased patient, where the patient sample was not first combined with any source of other genetic material (e.g., monkey kidney cells aka Vero cells, liver cells or suchlike). Please note that the term ”isolation” is used in the everyday sense of the word, i.e., the act of separating a thing or things from everything else. I am not requesting records where ”isolation of SARS-CoVZ / Covid-19” refers instead to the culturing of something, the performance of an amplification test (e.g., a PCR test), or the sequencing of something.
