British media: research confirms that the Chinese Communist virus originated in China

A variant of the Chinese Communist virus.

As the WHO launches a belated investigation into the source of the Chinese Communist virus in China, British journalist IAN BIRREL wrote in the Daily Mail on January 30 that a study by the Institute for Genomics and Evolutionary Medicine at Temple University in Philadelphia The findings of a team specializing in molecular epidemiology at Temple University (Philadelphia) confirm that the Chinese communist virus (also known as COVID-19 virus) originated in mainland China and may have emerged in late October to early November 2019.

The team, led by Professor Sergei Pond and published on the BiroRxiv website last September, said that experts realized that COVID-19 evolved from the Sars-2-CoV-2 virus as early as it was identified, so the team used modeling techniques to trace the evolution of the Sars-2 to COVID-19 virus. -19 virus to understand the stealth mutation process and the development of this virus.

Their results found that the early COVID-19 virus lineages all appeared first in samples of genomes sampled from China, and in fact the next five major lineages were all found first in China, implying that all of these variant strains originated in and evolved from Chinese viruses.

Pound said, “All the genetic evidence suggests that the virus originated in mainland China and that the pattern of global spread of the virus is consistent with the pattern of global outbreaks of infectious diseases originating in mainland China.”

Bond also said it is very difficult to confirm the exact date of the emergence of patient zero, but he believes the progenitor cells of the CCP virus may have emerged in late October 2019, which matches the U.S. State Department’s announcement that several researchers at the Wuhan Institute of Virus Research contracted the disease as recently as last fall.

The CCP only acknowledged the outbreak of “a new infectious disease” in Wuhan on December 31, 2019, and only three weeks later acknowledged that the virus could be transmitted from person to person, although many early indications were that the virus could be transmitted among health care workers and the population.

Wuhan health care workers said in a report on Jan. 2, 2020, that there were 41 confirmed cases in Wuhan. And a report in the South China Morning Post confirmed that Wuhan had its first patient with the CCP virus on Nov. 17, 2019. The WHO now admits that by the end of 2019 they knew of 124 confirmed cases in mainland China; only five of them were not from Wuhan. Many experts and government officials have complained that the WHO withheld this important information.

Attention is now focused on the Virus Research Institute in Wuhan, where Shi Zhengli’s team is conducting experiments on artificial virus recombination.
