First sequence data (200 bp) is in on Surrey SARS CoV and it is 100% identical to other SARS CoVs. Look for some interesting footwork as Canada and WHO try to dance around this one: "On that last point, at least, Plummer believes he knows the answer. "We've sequenced a 200 base pair-fragment of this virus and it's 100 per cent identical to the SARS coronavirus. And that would be very, very unlikely." Attempts are being made to sequence the entire virus, but so far neither the Winnipeg lab nor the laboratory at the BCCDC has managed to grow the virus in culture. " canada.com
