Awesome work....any chance you could do a new vid with specific reference to why COVID is different from normal seasonal flu? Curious minds want to know

Nice explanation, much easier to understand than what I was taught in virology at UCLA. I do have a weird question, is the reason that type C does not cause the symptoms A and B cause, due to the lack of the segment coding for an interferon antagonist?
@MrGdangles1 6 years ago

in your example of antigenic shift, is there any reason the two viruses couldn't result in the formation of an H1N2?
