Caps are gained from-----
A

1- -ve RNA with RNA polymerase of the virus will go to the nucleus.
2- + RNA is formed
3- PB1 will copies + templates to make -
4- some + rna will go to cytoplasm as mRNA to make the viral proteins
5- viral proteins will go to ER-golgi to budd out as vesicles and insert in PM
6- budding (out of the cells)
