- The WHO’s 27-member sponsored scientific advisory group recently published its 1st report on Covid’s origins.
- While the report highlights current data suggesting Covid originated in animals before jumping to humans, the host animal(s) and spillover event remain a mystery.
- The report also identified the Huanan Seafood Market (Wuhan, China) as an early hotspot; however, it remains unclear how Covid was introduced.
- The group also also doesn’t rule out the lab-leak theory and recommends further investigation.
- Russia, Brazil and China object to the investigation recommendation.
