Wildlife trade most likely pathway for coronavirus to arrive in Wuhan, WHO expert says
CNN
The wildlife trade in China is the most likely pathway through which Covid-19 was able to spread from the original animal source, possibly bats, to humans, according to one of the authors of a long-awaited World Health Organization report on the origin of the virus.
The report, expected to be released on Tuesday after repeated delays, will include "multiple hundred pages, with lots of data, lots of new facts and information," said Peter Daszak, a member of the WHO team of international experts who visited the Chinese city of Wuhan, where the virus first emerged, earlier this year. But the report's main conclusions -- about the possible ways in which the novel coronavirus could have emerged in Wuhan -- will remain unchanged from when the WHO wrapped up their trip in February, he said.More Related News
