Alignment of SARS-CoV-2-specific PCR with consensus sequences for SARS-CoV-2, SARS-CoV, MERS-CoV, and HuCoV-OC43. Consensus sequence for SARS-CoV/Urbani-T7 was reverse transcribed from SARS-CoV strain Urbani (GenBank accession no. AY278741). HuCoV-OC43, human coronavirus OC43 consensus sequence; MERS-CoV, Middle East respiratory syndrome coronavirus; SARS-CoV, severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus; SARS-CoV-2, severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2.
