Hi All,

I remember reading an article on here a while back that COVID19 had not been successfully isolated yet in a lab.

I came across this article here which seems to outline the process and includes photo's of the isolated particle.

https://wwwnc.cdc.gov/eid/article/26/6/20-0516_article

What confuses me the most is the section on Whole-Genome-Sequencing and the use of PCRs. It's hard enough to follow the jargon but this section made me wonder if they actually isolated COVID19 or assembled it themselves.

So has COVID 19 been isolated yet? If NO (as this article indicates it has been) why is this article incorrect?
