From NewScientist: Evidence points to Wuhan market as source of covid-19 outbreak
Subtitled: Genetic testing on samples collected during the earliest days of the covid-19 outbreak suggests it is likely that the virus spread from animals to humans at the Huanan seafood market
This is a tale of a narrative revisited by 'journalists.'
They make no claims of 'proof' (in fact, the idea that this isn't proof is mentioned by the author.) But the chief source of the information for the article seems to come from Australian Professor Eddie Holmes who apparently specializes in evolution and emergence of infectious diseases, focusing on the mechanisms of RNA viruses jumping species boundaries to emerge in humans and other animals.
This article recounts the "early evidence" collected as the COVID event began to develop back in January 2020... when 'investigators' swabbed the area of the Wuhan Seafood Market. The market is a source of live "food" animals as well as seafood... animals westerners would consider 'exotic' such as raccoon dogs, masked palm civets and hoary bamboo rats, etc.
“All the scientific data point one way — to SARS-CoV-2’s natural zoonotic origin in the Huanan market, Wuhan,” says Holmes.
The genetic studies of the virus in the earliest covid-19 cases revealed that few, if any, people were infected prior to the market outbreak, the team reports. However, it couldn’t rule out the possibility that the virus was brought to the market by an infected person handling animals.
...
Robert Edwards at Flinders University in Adelaide, Australia, who wasn’t involved in the research, says a “dream team of evolutionary biologists” conducted the latest study.
“There is little doubt about the origins of SARS-CoV-2 coming from the wet market now,” says Edwards. “The authors discuss humans causing the infection in the market, but any other origin story has to explain how it was only the market that was the source of so many outbreaks.”
And once again, the voices of 'authority' reiterate, for the historical record, that the virus probably didn't "escape" from the Wuhan Institute of Virology... they still completely refute the known reality that the virus was being subject to genetic manipulation to explore the "species-jumping mechanics," calling it instead "studying bat coronaviruses." They were just "studying" it...
Trillions in wealth transfer, national economies devastated, destructive social engineering fully-implemented, hundreds of thousands dead (with still more remaining bearing terrible symptoms)... Yeah... they were just "studying a virus"... and it was the pangolin's fault...
I placed this here in the "Propaganda Forum" because that is what this is... propaganda noise.
