When life gives you a cold, make rhinoviruses!
RJ made a rhinovirus this morning and took it to school for news.
His teacher met him at the door, and said “RJ! That’s lovely! Is it a sea urchin?” He said “No, it’s a rhinovirus. Those are protein spikes. They get in your nose and make you sneeze and cough. We all had them this weekend.”
It’s going to be a long 13 years of school…
RJ created his own rhinovirus, complete with protein spikes.
