So back to the office. Here Daniela Niemeyer tells about the isolation of the new Corona Virus. A few days ago, samples of the first Bavarian patients came to Berlin by express messenger: “We infected human lung cells, for example, and on the first day you ask yourself a bit: Do you see something or see nothing? But on the second day it becomes very clear that a lot of cells are already floating in the medium and these are the dead cells. On the third day I saw very, very clearly that this cell lawn had holes in this even surface.
“It was astonishing and worryingly easy. It was immediately possible to isolate this virus, even from the upper respiratory tract, i.e. from the throat. And this is unusual for such viruses. And that tells us that we have to look at the whole thing with caution here. Because if there is so much virus in the throat, we have to assume that it is a more communicable disease. "
