Including COVID-19, as it is estimated 50% of patients with COVID-19 who have died had secondary bacterial infections. Watch the COSMIC project looking at metagenomics of respiratory samples to identify the bacteria, fungi, and viral co-infections present in patients with COVID-19 https://www.covid-coinfections.org/t/cosmic-co-infections-and-secondary-microbial-infections-in-covid-19/17

Even without reference genomes, mining metagenomes for coronavirus sequences has become particularly topical in 2020. See the Pangolin 2019-nCoV-like coronavirus example https://doi.org/10.1101/2020.02.08.939660

As this works with RNA viruses it has been made part of the "Free access to OUP resources on coronavirus and related topics" collection on the Oxford University Press website https://academic.oup.com/journals/pages/coronavirus

This approach of using Oxford Nanopore direct-RNA sequencing for viruses has now been carried out on the SARSCov2/COVID19 causing coronavirus. See https://doi.org/10.1101/2020.03.05.976167

This galaxy + viral genome assembly approach has been updated in 2020 to analyze and store COVID19/SARSCov2 data https://covid19.galaxyproject.org/
