Rhinovirus

I have been sick for the past five days or so, and I decided to give myself a nasal swab and test it on our handy instrument, the FilmArray for a panel of respiratory diseases (mostly viruses).

The results?! I have Rhinovirus!!! I am elated. I have been going around announcing to everyone my disease of choice. Somehow it doesn't seem as crappy to have a cold if you know what it's name is. It's name is Rhino and it's an SOB.

Thank you, and goodnight.
