19. SARS-like coronaviruses were isolated from palm civets farmed domestically in Hubei Province, China, by Hu et al. at the Wuhan Institute of Virology, Chinese Academy of Sciences. Partial genome sequencing revealed an 82-nt deletion within the Orf8 region, which is identical to that found in human SARS-CoV isolates from the early patients of Zhongshan, Guangdong Province, China. Contamination can be ruled out because no human SARS-CoV isolate with the 82-nt deletion has ever been found in that institute or has been isolated in that region of China.
20. The SARS-CoV sequence with the 415-nt deletion (CUHK-LC2, CUHK-LC3, CUHK-LC4, and CUHK-LC5) was obtained from two SARS patients whose disease was linked to a late cluster of SARS cases in Hong Kong. Both patients had disease onset in mid-May 2003. The CUHK-LC2 sequence was initially obtained from the culture isolate of a throat wash specimen of an infected hospital health care worker and was later confirmed from the same specimen directly. CUHK-LC3, CUHK-LC4. and CUHK-LC5 were obtained from three different nasal swab specimens both directly and from the culture supernatants of an elderly patient who acquired SARS in the same hospital.
