The Vast Viral World: What We Know (and Don’t Know) By Lauren E. Oakes

6 grainy photos of coronavirus samples as viewed under a microscope arranged in two columns. The coronavirus cells vary in shape and size, and the photos themselves are tinted different colors. The top-left photo is tinted red and shows a virus circular in shape. The top-right photo is tinted a light-blue-green and shows another circular virus cell. The middle-left photo is tinted a light grayish blue and shows a circular virus with a small dent on its upper-right side. The middle-right photo is tinted yellow and shows a circular virus smaller than the previous three samples. The bottom-left photo is tinted a light-grayish-red and shows a circular virus slightly larger than the previous photo. Finally, the bottom-right photo is tinted a light blue and shows a larger virus with a faint seam beginning from its upper left side and ending at its lower right side. The cell bends inwards at the end points of this seam, as though the photo of this sample caught the virus in the middle of mitosis.
