the only problem with that article is the premise is wrong

It states:
We’ve scoured the internet and found no proof that scientists have done the simple steps required to demonstrate that SARS-CoV-2 conclusively meets even one – never mind all — of the third postulate’s constituent parts. Those parts are:
isolation from a human patient’s cells of full-length novel-coronavirus DNA*
sequencing of the isolated DNA, then determining that the identical sequence is not present in any other virus, and next replicating or cloning the DNA to form a new copy of the virus
injecting the new copy of the virus into a statistically significant number of living hosts (usually lab animals) and seeing whether those animals develop the discrete diagnostic symptoms associated with COVID-19 rather than developing the diagnostic symptoms of any other infection or disease.
*The virus contains RNA, which it injects into the nuclei of cells. There, the RNA is converted to DNA by reverse transcriptase enzymes.^
The explanation at the end is describing Retrovirus' like HIV. RNA and mRNA viruses are directly transcribed by the host cell. There is no DNA step....at all.
Replication > Transcription > Translation
This is cell biology 101, folks
