Raccoon Dogs at Wuhan Market Linked to Covid Origins
TL;DR Summary
The World Health Organization (WHO) has called on China to release new data linking the origins of Covid-19 to animal samples at Wuhan Market after the country recently took down the research. The WHO emphasized that "all hypotheses" on how Covid entered the human population are still on the table, and studies need to be conducted on potential breaches in biosecurity from a lab or whether the virus originated in a bat before jumping to humans. The new data doesn't provide a conclusive answer to how the pandemic began, "but it does provide more clues," said Maria Van Kerkhove, the WHO's Covid-19 technical lead.
