This (or a similar project) came up in a discussion i've had last week. After a bit of research my conclusion is that their definition of "publications that scientifically prove the process of isolation of SARS-CoV-2" isn't the same as the one used in academic publishing as there are multiple publications that do that. A german one [1] literally has a section titled "Isolation of an infectious SARS‐CoV‐2 virus". The one I read required a double blind controlled study that injects the isolated alive virus into multiple humans/at least primates which then have to develop symptoms. I guess if somebody did that they would move the goal posts again. On your page I can't even find a definition of what they would accept as "scientifically prove the process of isolation".
