For this lab assignment, you will Tell the Story of a bacteria and/or virus, focusing on the laboratory testing techniques that lead to the identification of the specimen, and the resultant disease diagnosis.

Instructions:

Find a helpful video from the web (that is created by someone else) which outlines the laboratory testing process (such as gram staining, PCR, or neutralization testing). The video you find should accurately illustrate the concept(s) being asked for above and help support your bacteria/virus selection. 

Provide a robust explanation which details the bacteria and/or virus you’ve chosen and the resultant disease and/or pathologic condition.

In your submission, use the two elements above to “tell the whole story” of your chosen bacteria or virus strain from discovery to the disease it causes within the body.
