Here is a mnemonic to help remember the Helical RNA viruses. The point is to add to the story and make it your own. This works for everything, I have many similar stories that cover different topics to help solidify information.

Adapted and Illustrated By Charles DeMello Schutt USF MCOM CO 2016 (Not for profit) You are a mail man/woman who has been assigned to deliver an ENVELOPE to the helical family. You notice something right off the bat, they all live in this very negative home called "Helical House So helical RNA viruses are: (1) Negative () sense (with one exception) (2) Enveloped. (You are delivering an envelope to the helical household.) What does () sense mean? The viral RNA must be acted upon by a transcriptase to make viral mRNA. Therefore, this requires the nucleus for its replication! Refer to First Aid pg 161.2014 Story Additional Notes 1) You walk up to the Helical house and notice the door is shaped like a Bullet. Guarding the door is a vicious dog foaming from the mouth. Yes, the first room in the helical house contains the RHABDO viruses and they have bullet shaped virons . -Rabies virus 2) You continue through the house and come to the second room. The first of two brothers, ORTHOMYXO. When we think of Orthomyxo, we think "O" and an Octopus immediately comes to mind. An Octopus has eight legs, like Orthomyxo viruses have eight segments. Notice the stars in the eyes. Remember the star path from the icosahedral viruses. In this case, the Orthomyxo viruses (which is only influenza), even though it is negative sense, replicates in both the nucleus and the cytoplasm. -orthomyxo (Influenza A, B,C), ISA, Thogoto, -8 segments - 3) You continue up the stairs and you find a massive giant, he tells you to stop because he wants you to listen to a PAIR of MIX tapes he made. Thats right, he represents the PARAMYXO viruses. Why is he giant? Well, paramyxo viruses are known to cause formations of giant cells! -Paramyxo (Measels, Mumps, Respiratory Syncitial viruses, and parainfluenza.) 4) You move on, to the 3 rd room to find some illegal activity going on. Yes, RAT fighting. There is a huge ARENA set up and two rats stand on separate ends of the SEGMENTED Circular ARENA. They are tied up with a LASSO and kept away from each other till the fight is ready to start. Thats right, This is the ARENA viruses, they have 2 segments, Circular RNA, they usually infect rodents and occasionally humans, and LASSO= Lasa virus that is very serious and can cause Lassa hemorrhagic fever. Arena Virus (A LOT: Classified into Old World and New world). -Lassa : well-known Old world virus 5) There is too much negativity in this house! You decide to step out for some fresh air and meet a very POSITIVE young man who is having a good time and dancing, he offers you a CARONA. You decide, What the hell, Ill take a break! Then you realize he is out here because hes being kept away othersyes, he has Sars.. You drop the corona and quickly run back inside. Corona Virus. (+) sense, enveloped, helical RNA virus. Most popular- SARS CAV 6) You find yourself in room 6 and now things get really weird! You find a BUNNY with a cute round nose and round tail, then you look closer and see this bunny has 3 EARS! Thats right, this represents BUNYA Virus. In addition, the bunny has fleas, fleas are arthropods and they transmit Bunya viruses. Bunya viruses have 3 segments, Circular RNA and 7) You have traveled all around the house and havent found the owner. Finally, you reach the last room and find a box marked CLASSIFIED. You FEEL around the box and see its locked with a caution tape reading contains dangerous incurable viruses. Yep, these are the FILO Viruses Filo Viruses; EBOLA, MARBUG, hemorrhagic fever. Often deadly 8) You give up, you drop your envelope and run away from this awful negative helical house.
