I read it was discovered in a Chinese lab that did studies on animals. Then, the dead animals were sold to the Wuhan wet marketing knowing that the animals had disease. Is this not true?
- khuey 6y agoIn case this question is actually being asked in earnest, there's little evidence for any particular origin beyond that the first outbreak of noticeable size in humans happened in Wuhan in late 2019. The exact mechanism that led to the virus being introduced into humans from (presumably) bats is unknown.
- macintux 6y agoI'm sure just about every plausible (and implausible) theory has been floated somewhere. This document reemphasizes the point that we simply don't know what happened, although it presents an interesting hypothesis.
